Cool and breathable slippers for guys
Say goodbye to sweaty feet in worn-out house shoes with a pair of breathable slippers from glerups. These slippers are made to elevate your leisure time with coolness and comfort, making them one of the best slippers on the market. Read on to learn more about how these slippers can be beneficial for your feet to wear.
The best slippers for all year wear
Normally slippers are footwear for the colder months, when your feet need a little extra heat to stay warm. But slippers from glerups are versatile, as they can be used all year round, with the same level of comfort, whether worn on a warm summer day or a cold winter day. This is due to wool, which is the primary material in these slippers.
The wool has great natural properties. Among other things, it is temperature regulative, meaning that it will direct excess heat and moisture away from the skin, ensuring you a nice, cool feeling on hot days. Simultaneously, it helps keep you warm on cold days without making your feet sweat. The wool also helps your feet breathe, making them feel fresh, even after hours of use.
Other benefits of wool slippers
Comfort isn’t just about temperature. The wool has a molecular structure close to that of human skin. This means that even when worn for extended periods of time, you will not experience discomfort or irritation, but your feet will stay comfortable and healthy. The wool also traps any moisture or odor-causing bacteria to protect your feet, keeping them feeling fresh, healthy and at their best.
Indoor slippers or outdoor slippers?
Slippers from glerups are not just for those relaxing moments in the comfort of your home – even though they are perfect for that too. But depending on which type of sole you choose, you can also wear the slippers when you are out and about. If you prefer to stay indoors, hanging out with friends, doing small chores around the house or just relaxing with a good book, game or movie? Then you should go for the leather soles, as they are the perfect soles for wearing inside. They give your feet the perfect cushioning, even on harder floors and help you have a secure grip on the surface.
If you are more inclined to spend your leisure time outside, you should go for the natural rubber sole slippers. These soles are more durable than the leather soles and handle water, dirt and everyday wear and tear of being outside better than the leather ones, which aren’t as suited for wet pavement and dirty environments.
Find your perfect fit and color
When you have chosen between indoor and outdoor use, you need to choose which style of slipper you want. glerups slippers come in three different styles, each with their own distinct feeling of comfort. There is the classic slip-on, which is perfect as a morning slipper when you just woke up or just want to be able to change into something comfortable quickly. Then there are the shoe slippers, which are moccasin-style slippers that have a closed heel, giving them a slightly better grip on the foot.
A perfect slipper for the office, at home or a quick walk downtown running errands. The last type of slippers are our boot slippers. These slippers go just above the ankle, making them suitable for those who tend to have feet that run cold or someone who just needs a little extra support in keeping their balance.
The colors are inspired by the Nordic nature in Scandinavia, where glerups has its origin. This results in slippers in discreet, earthy nuances that will easily fit with the rest of your wardrobe. Dark blue like the sea, green as the forests, cranberry red and chestnut brown, but also more subtle nuances like cream white, charcoal black or classic grey.
