On the street and in the office, women are obliged to look attractive and stylish, and very often one of the components of the image is high-heeled shoes . Of course, this allows you to look elegant, but not always shoes with stilettos or ankle boots on the wedge create comfort for women's legs. Arriving home, the first thing women are in a hurry to get rid of shoes and give their feet a break from the hustle and bustle. That's where convenient home slippers come in handy. A variety of materials are used for their production. One of the most popular and in demand is felt. Home felted women's slippers are shoes that are barely felt on their feet. At the same time, they perfectly retain heat and have high wear resistance.
Unique properties of natural material
The technology of felt production remains unchanged for several centuries. Unlike many types of textiles, felt refers to dense non-woven materials. For its production, natural wool is used. In most cases, quality sheep wool is selected for this purpose. Products made from rabbit fuzz or goat hair are not so popular. Fibers of sheep's wool are covered with an inconspicuous naked eye with scales-cuticles, which adhere to each other during felting. The use of steam and hot water in the process of felting makes it possible to regulate the density of the material. For example, warm slippers, ideally suited to northerners, are made from camel felt, which has a small thickness, but is characterized by excellent heat-shielding properties and light weight. In our latitudes, such models are less popular than home shoes made from sheep felt. In most models of female slippers, felt is also used as a sole. This is very convenient, because the slippers on the felt sol are soft, perfectly worn, do not make any noise when walking and protect the floor covering, which is very important if it is an expensive parquet or laminate.

At the same time, felt felt slippers always remain dry. If we add to the properties of sheep's wool and the ability to accelerate the regeneration of the skin by keeping lanolin in the fibers, the advantages of felt slippers are obvious. By the way, this kind of shoes doctors recommend to wear at home, if there are diseases of orthopedic or rheumatic nature.
