Slippers are basically just comfortable, stress-free shoes you can wear in the house. Stress- free, unless they don’t keep your feet warm enough. Or, they make your feet sweat. Or, the fit has become awkward over time. Or, they look silly or weird when you wear them with anything but pyjamas. Maybe they look silly or weird even when you DO wear them with pyjamas.
Felted wool house shoes do away with all of these concerns and here are 5 reasons why:
Classic, Gender-Neutral Styling
The simple, informal design is suited to all, and is available in a variety of sizes. Soft taupe felted wool is reminiscent of thick flannel and shares that feeling of dependable comfort. These slippers pair well with everything from jeans, khakis, or cargos to leggings and leisure wear. And yes - pyjamas! With no seams or additional trimming to come loose, they will maintain their appearance much longer, with less chance of looking ragged over time.
Temperature-Controlled
Wool is valued for its softness and insulation. Its naturally-occurring thermal properties generate warmth in cool temperatures, but the fibres are also breathable, encouraging air circulation. Felted wool slippers promote a balanced thermo-physiological response, which means they’ll keep your feet as cool and comfortable in summer as they do warm and cozy in the winter.
Microbial & Hypoallergenic
Wool is naturally hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture, keeping feet dry, and preventing odor and bacteria. Wool is also hypoallergenic and resistant to dust-mites, helping your house shoes stay clean. To freshen, simply air out your felted wool slippers. Spot clean, or vacuum with a small, soft brush attachment. (Wool slippers should not be fully immersed in water, as they can shrink or lose shape. Do not put them in the dryer.)
