Women’s slippers

Which Doghammer shoes are suitable as ladies’ slippers?

Our range of footwear includes not only sturdy outdoor shoes such as our eco-friendly trekking or walking boots and our sustainable trainers, but also shoes that are ideal as comfortable slippers for women – first and foremost our Fairtrade slippers, but also our toe-separator slippers. Both are available in a wide range of colours and materials. Whether made from felt and wool as cosy, warm slippers for women for the winter, or as open slip-on sandals as airy women’s slippers for the summer: our shoes are a comfortable choice both indoors and outdoors, offering your feet perfect comfort whether at home or on the go. By the way, you can wear our open or closed slippers with or without socks, as the cosy inner lining made of wool or wool felt ensures a hygienic foot environment at all times.

Why do we use cork to make our women’s slippers?

As with all our fair and sustainable footwear, one particular material plays a key role in our women’s slippers: cork! Thanks to its natural properties and impressive environmental credentials, it is the perfect raw material for making our handmade shoes. Cork is not only lightweight, hard-wearing and easy to care for, but it also regrows quickly and is highly recyclable. This makes the vegan, natural material an ideal choice for our shoes! Depending on the model, cork is used in the sole, the footbed and, in some models, even in the upper of our women’s slippers. As cork is naturally dirt- and water-repellent, can absorb many times its own weight in moisture and prevents odours from forming, it not only ensures outstanding comfort but also promotes a healthy foot environment.

What other materials are important for the manufacture of our women’s slippers?

As we prioritise not only the properties of our materials but also climate and environmental protection when selecting them, we ensure we use raw materials that are particularly sustainable and eco-friendly. Depending on the model, we use materials such as recycled ski skins, sustainably sourced wool or a vegan wool felt alternative made from PET bottles for our women’s slippers. These eco-friendly materials make our open and closed-toe women’s hut slippers, for example, the perfect women’s slippers, which are also ideal for travelling thanks to their compact pack size and light weight. For our women’s flip-flops, which are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and are particularly popular as lightweight summer slippers, we use – depending on the model – not only cork but also wool, linen and cotton, as well as soft microfibre. In this way, we combine maximum comfort with durability and a low environmental impact.

What styles of women’s slippers can I find at Doghammer?

Whether you’re looking for closed, lined slippers for women or open-toed slippers: our range includes both summer slippers for women and styles for the colder months. Our toe-separator slippers, available in various styles, are just as suitable for holidays as they are for wearing at home. Thanks to their sturdy, non-slip Vibram sole, they provide good grip on all kinds of surfaces. Depending on the style, their padded toe strap is made from cork, woollen felt or – in the upcycled version – recycled ski climbing skins. The cork or microfibre insole is wonderfully comfortable even when worn barefoot and boasts excellent hygienic properties. For anyone who likes things particularly cosy, our women’s wool ‘Hütte’ slippers are ideal: They’re available as comfortable slip-on slippers in the ‘Hütte offen’ style, or as closed, lined ‘Hütte zua’ mountain huts slippers made from felt and wool, wool felt substitute or recycled ski climbing skins.

Can you wear doghammer slippers for women outdoors as well?

We’re nature lovers through and through – so the boundaries between indoors and outdoors can sometimes blur! That’s why we’ve designed all our Fairtrade shoes to be particularly hard-wearing. Many of our materials, such as wool, wool felt and cork, are naturally dirt- and water-repellent. They also have heat-insulating and temperature-regulating properties. So you can pop out onto the balcony, the terrace or into the garden in our cosy slippers without immediately getting wet or cold feet. They aren’t designed for outdoor use, but after all, you want to wear them as comfortable slippers – and they work brilliantly not just at the chalet, but also at home or whilst travelling! Our fair-trade and sustainable toe-separator slippers, on the other hand, are actually designed as outdoor footwear, so you can certainly wear them outdoors too.

How do I best look after my Doghammer women’s slippers?

Cork, felt and wool are all naturally hard-wearing, abrasion-resistant and water-repellent. Thanks to their natural odour- and moisture-absorbing properties, they prevent odours from developing and keep your feet feeling pleasantly dry at all times. Any moisture absorbed naturally whilst wearing them is simply released once you take off your women’s slippers. This means they can dry out completely overnight, for example, and are ready again in the morning to offer you maximum comfort at home – whether you’re wearing them with or without socks. Dust and loose dirt can simply be brushed off. Even though our women’s slippers aren’t too fussy when it comes to stains or dirt, if something does go wrong, you can simply wipe the upper with a damp cloth.
