Odd; Oetzi had the same kind of shoe. Like a slipper that was laced across the instep. The kind of slipper with laces that you always see in fairy-tale illustrations of princesses.

so it was sort of the same culture from the Alps to the mountains of Norway?

I think most all polar peoples made and wore the high bootlike Kamiks, and the riders of the Kazakhastan steppes also wore knee-high boots.

Maybe this slipper design is a European Mesolithic thing.
