Pampootie

From pedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Pampooties are traditional Irish footwear, worn on the Aran Islands until the 1950s.[1]

[edit] History

They are formed of a single piece of untanned hide folded around the foot and stitched with twine or a leather strap.[2]

Hide from the buttocks was most often used. The hair was usually left and this improved the shoe's grip.[3] The raw hide is kept flexible by use and the constant damp conditions of Western Ireland. However the shoes are not made to last. They are prone to rot and were usually kept for as little as a month or less.[4]

Pampooties are similar to the Scottish cuaran shoes, and are the precursors to ghillies, celtic dance shoes. They are also similar in appearance to American moccasins.[3]. Ancient shoes found preserved from Stone Age Europe have a similar design.[1]

It was stitched with twine or leather thong. The shoe was cut so the hair lay with the roots toward the heel and the ends at the toe to help grip the ground."

""Pampooties" or "cuarans" were made from the raw skin of a freshly killed deer or stag, whilst the skin was still soft. The hair was retained on the outer side, perhaps to aid in traction, as it is usually found laying towards the rear or heel-end of the shoe. Once flayed, the wearer-to-be placed his feet upon the skin, on the flesh side, traced round with a knife, cut a series of slits around the edges, and laced the whole affair, draw-string like, up around the foot. Both wear and ever-present sodden state of the walking surfaces maintained the "pampootie" in a semi-flexible condition."
