Sami Wool Slippers

Wool Slippers

The Sami is a soft-soled wool slipper, light and close to the foot, made for cold kitchen floors, timber boards and the long evenings in between. The upper is 100% wool, inside and out, and the closed shape wraps the whole foot so the warmth stays where you want it. It settles to the shape of the foot with wear. The Sami comes from Van Buren, a family firm in Bolsward that has worked with wool and sheepskin since 1861. Its factory and tannery still stand on the same Friesland site, and it is the only sheepskin tannery left in the Netherlands.

100% Wool Slippers for Winter

Wool has lined boots, blankets and bedding for centuries because it holds warmth close while still letting air through, and it takes up moisture as you wear it. In a slipper, that means warm feet on a winter morning and comfortable ones through a long evening at home. The thin, flexible sole keeps you sure-footed on wooden floors and stairs, and is intended for wear indoors.

Unisex Wool Slippers in EU Sizes 35 to 44

The Sami comes in three soft, natural shades: off-white, beige and grey. Sizes are paired, so a 38 takes the 37/38 and a 41 the 41/42. They come up slightly small, so if you sit at the top of a pair or between sizes, take the next one up. It is one design for women and men alike, which makes it an easy slipper to buy for a whole household.

Wool Slippers as a Christmas Gift

A pair of wool slippers is a present that gets used every day from the first cold night onwards. The paired sizing takes most of the guesswork out of buying for someone else, and the neutral shades sit happily with any room or wardrobe. Pair them with our sheepskin hot water bottle cover, from the same Dutch maker, for a generous winter present.

How to Care for Wool Slippers

Let them air between wears and lift off any dust or lint with a soft clothes brush. For anything more, follow the care label inside each pair.

Wool Slipper Returns

Please try your slippers on indoors, on a clean floor, so the soles stay unmarked. We can only accept slippers back in unworn condition. A pair that shows any sign of wear will not be refunded in full and may not be refunded at all. This does not affect your rights if a pair arrives faulty.
