The Glerups Felt Shoes and Felt Slippers come from Denmark and are made from 100% pure natural wool with a calf skin sole.
In 1993, Nanny Glerup started producing slippers made of felted wool on a small scale, simply as a hobby. They were so well received by friends and family that she decided to make it her living. However she was able to manufacture 2 pairs only a day. Since then she has developed new production techniques and over the years she has developed and refined the products, assisted by her husband Ove Glerup.
Glerups Felt Shoes are handmade using natural, non-toxic materials and environmentally friendly production methods. The calf skin sole is vegetable softened. The Glerups felt shoe moulds to fit the shape of your foot and is designed to sit firmly on your foot. The felt feels soft and warm against bare feet allowing them to breathe.
Care Instructions
You can wash your Glerups Felt Shoes by hand in warm soapy water. Put your feet in the moist shoes, and pad them into shape. Glerups Felt Shoes may "shed" fibres during their first few days of use. This is totally normal as the coarsest fibres need to work their way out of the felt. It is a natural process and the fibres can simply be plucked off.
