After breeding Valais Black Nose sheep, it felt only natural to introduce slippers into our range, the softest, purest material to keep feet warm and snug. These slippers are 100% lambswool and not laminated onto a faux leather, like some brands claim to be 100% sheepskin. If you are not entirely satisfied, please let us know why and where we can improve on what we feel is perfection.
EVA Sole is an abbreviation for Ethylene Vinyl Acetate, which is a good material for shock absorption. This, in combination with its lightweight, makes it one of the market’s most used materials for outer soles, good for slippers because they can be worn in and outdoors.
To preserve the quality and longevity of your sheepskin and wool slippers, it's best to avoid washing them unless absolutely necessary. If cleaning becomes essential, follow these guidelines:
Before wearing, protect your slippers with a good Famaco protector spray
Protecting with the invisible protector film will guard against stains.
Hand Wash:
Hand-wash your slippers with Famaco suede cleaner, dabbing the stain until it's gone, and reapply the protector every 15 days.
If a real disaster has happened, your slippers can be hand-washed. Sheepskin is a natural material.
Drying:
Allow the slippers to dry naturally at room temperature.
To help maintain their shape, stuff the slippers with paper while they dry.
Avoid direct sunlight or placing them near a radiator to prevent damage.
Restoring the Material:
Once dry, gently brush the slippers with a soft suede brush to restore their original texture and appearance.
