In 1803, the U.S. Corps
of Discovery headed out from St. Louis into the Western territory
beyond the Mississippi River, an area inhabited by Native Americans,
yet virtually unknown to others. Their goal was to travel to the
Pacific Ocean and back, in doing so the expedition would take over
28 months and cover more than 8,000 miles. En route, the Corps would
make their own moccasins; cutting, wrapping and tying skins around
their feet. Wintering at the mouth of the Columbia River in 1805,
Meriwether Lewis commanded every member of the party to make 10
pairs of the soft natural shoes before setting out on the return
journey. 200 years later, the 1803 goal is to use beautiful, natural
leathers and to make superb handcrafted shoes with beautifully
finished interiors. 1803 footwear, Gloves for your Feet.
