Choosing wool slippers
Slippers in wool keep feet warm without getting sweaty, because wool breathes. That makes them comfortable for long evenings on the sofa and quick trips to put the kettle on. Komodo makes every pair here in its HIDE range, and all of them are unisex. Each slipper has a 100% lambswool upper and a footbed made from recycled felt, which adds cushioning underfoot. Komodo was reviewed on its materials and how its products are made before joining Ziracle.
Handmade wool slippers from Nepal
Each pair of handmade wool slippers is hand-knitted or hand-crocheted in Nepal, so no two pairs are quite the same. Small differences in stitch and colour are part of the charm of handmade pieces. The hand-crocheted house slippers come in oat and space dye green, and the hand-knitted styles come in blue space, wine red, lavender, black and ivy. Hand-knitted pairs have a chunkier, cosier look, while crocheted ones are a little lighter and suit people whose feet run warm.
Lambswool slippers and sizing
Lambswool is soft and warm, which suits cold floors and winter evenings. Komodo makes two sizes: size 1 is 25cm long and size 2 is 29cm long. Measure your foot heel to toe, and size up if you like to wear thick socks with them. These have soft soles, so they are made for indoors rather than a dash to the bins. Wool can be slippery on polished floors, so take care on stairs.
Care and gifting
Most pairs are cold hand wash only, so check the care label before washing. Reshape them while damp and let them dry flat away from radiators. Air them between wears to keep them fresh, and store them in a breathable bag over summer with a cedar block to keep moths away. They make a cosy Christmas present for anyone who feels the cold, and a pair in each size suits a couple who share. Socks has bamboo and organic cotton socks, Pyjamas has organic cotton pyjamas, Knitwear has wool jumpers, and Is wool sustainable? The honest answer looks at how wool is produced.
