Wool slippers that really are heaven for your feet

Published December 17, 2023

Comfort, comfort, comfort – that´s what you want on your feet. And never so much than in the winter, when the extra layers can make you feel stuffy and even downright miserable, if you´re wearing synthetic materials.

Choosing natural materials like lambswool for your footwear provides a combination of warmth, moisture management, breathability, comfort, and sustainability, making it an excellent choice for various weather conditions and activities.

VIBAe ROMA SHEARLING SLIPPER can be used indoors and outdoors.

Wearing natural materials like lambswool on your feet can offer several advantages due to the unique properties of the material:

ISOLATION AND WARMTH:

Lambswool is known for its excellent insulation properties. It has natural crimp that creates tiny air pockets, trapping heat and providing warmth. This makes lambswool an excellent choice for keeping your feet warm in colder conditions.

MOISTURE WICKING:

Wool has the ability to absorb moisture without feeling damp. It can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture and still feel dry. This helps in keeping your feet dry by wicking away sweat, which is particularly beneficial in preventing discomfort and odor.

BREATHABILITY:

Natural fibers like lambswool are breathable, allowing air circulation around your feet. This is crucial for maintaining a comfortable temperature and preventing excessive sweating. Breathability also helps in preventing the development of fungal infections and odors.

ODOR RESISTANCE:

Wool has natural antimicrobial properties that resist the growth of odor-causing bacteria. This means that, compared to synthetic materials, lambswool is less likely to develop unpleasant smells over time, even after prolonged use.

THE COMFORT FACTOR:

Lambswool is soft and gentle on the skin. It provides a comfortable and cozy feeling, making it a pleasant material to wear on your feet. The fibers are finer than those from older sheep, making them less likely to cause irritation.

DURABLE AND LONG LASTING:

Wool is known for its durability. Lambswool, being fine and soft, is still robust enough to withstand regular wear and tear. With proper care, socks or footwear made from lambswool can last for a long time.

Your feet will adore VIBAe´s new collection of woolly wonders: The ROMA SHEARLING and the TE KUITI SHEARLING.

Let your feet breathe a while longer by covering them in wool!
