Why wool slippers?

Wool is the perfect natural product to use for slippers. The special properties of wool keep your feet wonderfully warm, while they do not feel clammy. This is due to the temperature regulating effect of sheep's wool. Slippers keep your feet warm because a layer of air forms between the hairs. This ensures the insulating effect of the slippers. In addition, wool contains lanolin, which is the wool grease. This has a nurturing effect when you wear your wool slippers without socks.

Wool slippers for everyone

Texelana has a wide range of wool slippers for women and men. From sheepskin slippers tot felt slippers from Glerups and Haflinger. Do you prefer a wool slipper or do you prefer a slipper in a boot model? At Texelana you can choose from many different models and colors.

Sheepskin slippers from Texelana

Texelana sheepskin slippers are made from European sheepskins. They are available in different models. From slip-on slippers to an ankle boot model. The sheepskin slippers are available with hard rubber soles, with which you can easily walk outside for example to get the mail from the mailbox. We also have sheepskin slippers with a soft sole. This soft sole is made of sturdy cow leather, cow leather is more durable than sheep leather. The sheepskin slippers with cow leather sole are not suitable for going outside.

Felt slipper

Texelana sells felt slippers of the brands; Glerups and Haflinger.

Glerups is a Danish brand that makes felt slippers. The models are made of flexible felt and have a sole of rubber or leather. The Glerups slippers are made of 100% natural wool, coming from the Gotland fur sheep. They make needle felt from the wool. This strong fabric is created because the wool is treated with water and soap. Before you choose a pair of Glerups slippers, you should consider when you want to use your slippers. Do you want to wear them only indoors or also around the house? The Glerups indoor boot for example has a sole of cow leather and is provided with a firm footbed, ideal for indoor use. Glerups also has slippers with a rubber sole; this sole is made of natural rubber with a non-slip profile. The rubber soles are spherical, so the foot rolls off easily. Glerups has three models; the slipper, the shoe and the ankle boot. The felt slippers from Glerups are suitable for women and men.

Haflinger also has models for women and men. There are some models of Haflinger slippers with a cork sole or a latex sole, so there is a model for everybody. In addition, there are also some models Haflinger slippers with a removable insole, very suitable for people who have orthotics. A well-known model is the original, sturdy Haflinger slippers; Grizzly Torben. Wool felt lends itself perfectly to footwear because it is sturdy, dense in structure and elastic. Wool regulates temperature and also provides a warm and comfortable feeling.

Frequently asked questions about wool slippers & clogs

Which slippers are the warmest?

The warmest slippers are without a doubt sheepskin or 100% wool slippers. These materials provide the best insulation and keep your feet warm for a long time.
Why these slippers in particular?
Sheepskin slippers (warmest)
Have a very high insulation value.
This material provides optimal insulation because the wool fibers contain small layers of air that retain heat, while simultaneously breathing and wicking away moisture.
Wool / wool felt slippers
Slightly less warm than sheepskin, but still very well insulating,
Breathable and temperature-regulating.
Synthetic slippers (least warm)
They seem warm, but the filling does not wick away moisture well. As a result, your feet actually end up getting colder.

Additional factors that determine heat
Model: high or with closed heel = warmer.
Lining thickness: the thicker the wool, the better the insulation.
Fit: a little room creates an insulating layer of air.

The warmest slippers are made of real sheepskin or wool , preferably in a closed or high model . This combination ensures maximum warmth and comfort.

Why are wool slippers so warm?

Wool fibers contain small air chambers that retain heat. At the same time, they allow excess moisture to escape. This ensures warm and dry feet.

Wool fibers are a wonder of nature, with properties that no synthetic material can match.
They breathe, regulate heat, and always feel comfortable.




Which slippers for sweaty feet?

If you suffer from sweaty feet easily, choose slippers made of breathable, natural materials and avoid synthetic variants.
Best choice:
Wool slippers (best option)
Wool is breathable and moisture-regulating, absorbing moisture and gradually wicking it away. Wool keeps your feet warm without overheating.
Merino wool or sheepskin are particularly ideal: soft, moisture-regulating, and comfortable.

Important to know!
Wool does not prevent your feet from sweating, but it does ensure that moisture is quickly absorbed and wicked away, making your feet feel less clammy and more comfortable.

Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet. As a result, sweat is wicked away, and you experience less clammy or cold feet. With synthetic materials, moisture tends to sit on your skin, causing a stuffy and sweaty feeling.

Extra tips
Choose a good fit (not too tight → air circulation). Air out your slippers regularly, and alternate daily if desired.

Which slippers are the most comfortable?

Comfort depends on personal preference, fit, and use. Wool slippers mold to the foot and offer long-lasting wearing comfort. Models with a closed heel provide extra support, while slip-ons are easier to put on.

Which type of wool is best for slippers?

The best type of wool for slippers depends on what you value most: warmth, softness, or durability. In general, these are the best options:

Sheepskin (warmest & most luxurious)
Very high insulation value
Soft, supple and comfortable
Temperature regulating and humidity regulating.
Ideal for cold feet and daily comfort.

Wool felt (sturdy & shape-retaining)

Compressed wool, compact and strong
Good insulation and dimensionally stable
Slightly less soft, but lasts a long time
Ideal for intensive use.

Woolborg (soft & affordable)
Wool knitted into jersey, soft and flexible.
Warm and comfortable with the benefits of wool.
Less durable than wool felt or sheepskin
Ideal for light, soft slippers in a lower price range.

What is the best choice?

For maximum warmth: sheepskin
For firmness: wool felt
For soft, light slippers: wool fleece

Briefly summarized
There is no one-to-one definition of the best type of wool. Sheepskin is the warmest, wool felt the strongest, and wool borg a soft, affordable option that provides good warmth, but is slightly less durable.

How do you clean sheepskin slippers?

Storage: After use, place your slippers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or a heater. This will help the wool fibers maintain their resilience and keep your slippers flexible and in good shape.
Protection*
Before initial use, treat your slippers with a protective suede or leather spray (not a mousse).
This will make them more resistant to water and dirt.
Tip: If you wear your slippers frequently, the wool under your feet may become a bit flatter; this is a natural process. Add a sheepskin insole, and they will feel "new" again.




Are wool slippers suitable for every season?


Yes, wool is temperature-regulating. In winter, it retains warmth, while in milder temperatures, it ventilates. This makes it comfortable all year round.

Can I wash wool slippers in the washing machine?

For wool fleece slippers: wash gently on a wool wash cycle at a maximum of 30°C with wool detergent . This is only necessary to a limited extent, as wool is naturally self-cleaning; airing briefly is often sufficient. Washing is at your own risk.
As for sheepskin slippers: don't do it.
Why sheepskin cannot be washed in the washing machine:
Sheepskin consists of two parts: wool on the inside and leather on the outside. It is precisely this combination that makes it vulnerable: if leather gets wet, it can harden and tear. Wool can felt and shrink due to friction. The slipper loses its shape, softness, and comfort.

How do you properly care for sheepskin slippers? Good news: washing is often not necessary at all. Wool has a self-cleaning ability. You maintain wool slippers by airing them regularly and gently removing dirt. Use a protective spray before use, and regularly thereafter, to protect the slippers against dirt and moisture.

What is the average price of a good pair of wool slippers?

A good pair of wool slippers costs between €30 and €130 on average. The price depends on the quality of the wool, the craftsmanship, and the finish. More expensive slippers often last longer.
