The Shoe with Rubber Sole
Glerups are renowned for their unique felted wool blend (Gotland and merino) which is processed without harsh chemicals. The double-felted construction creates a seamless, durable slipper that naturally wicks moisture and resists odors better than any synthetic alternative.
Ingredients & Purity
Uses a proprietary blend of 100% pure natural wool. The rubber sole is natural rubber, providing better grip and longevity than EVA foam.
Scientific Evidence
Wool's antimicrobial properties are well-documented in textile science. Glerups uses a mechanical felting process rather than chemical binding.
Brand Transparency
The company maintains a 'farm to foot' philosophy, though specific lab reports for the rubber compounds are not publicly posted.
Value Assessment
At $100-$130, these offer the best 'durability-per-dollar' ratio for a non-resoleable slipper.
Why Not Alternatives?
Glerups uses a denser felting process than competitors like LL Bean or Lands' End, resulting in a slipper that maintains its shape for years without the 'pilling' common in cheaper wool slippers.
