Atikuss

Atikuss is our way of paying homage to the Caribou, which greatly contributed to the survival of the First Nations. See history come alive at Atikuss through the hands of Indigenous artists and crafters using ancestral methods of beading and weaving to make clothes and accessories. Shop online or at the Atikuss boutique in Quebec for mukluks, moccasins and more.

Custom order your very own pair of Hopeboots from Quebec’s Atikuss boutique or online store. The Hopeboots project was launched by Innu businesswoman Josée Leblanc, to enable Indigenous women to make an equitable living from their skills and labour after she discovered that many Indigenous artisans rarely earned more than $4 an hour. Customize your own Hopeboots with different beading styles, colours, and types of sustainably sourced fur trim. Each pair ordered doesn’t just help to support Indigenous creators financially, it also helps reconnect them with their Culture.
