Glerups Wool Slippers Review {2014 Holiday Gift Guide}

Cold weather and snow are an inevitable part of our harsh Canadian winters. Though I’ve been accustomed to this over the years, nothing annoys me more than cold floors and freezing toes. It seems that no matter how toasty our home is or how high we crank the heat, our floors still remain an unbearable temperature. My husband and I have tried various brands of socks and slippers, but nothing seems to warm our toes quite as well as Glerups wool indoor shoes. With a perfect fit and luxurious comfort that is great for wearing around the house, these shoes have become the perfect solution to our long, winter nights.

Glerups is a family business, originally begun as a hobby by Danish mother “Nanny” Glerups. The company continues to be owned and operated by Nanny and her family. These shoes are comprised of 100% natural, breathable wool, which warms your cold feet in the winter, but also cools your warm feet in the summer. This makes them very budget friendly for a fantastic product you can use year-round. Glerups keep feet dry and free of odors that many other shoes harbor, and their products are very easy to clean by simple hand washing with mild laundry soap and leaving to air dry. Though the leather sole of many Glerups shoes are made for indoor use, some of their products do contain a rubber sole for very mild outdoor wear, such as stargazing on the porch or walking to the mailbox.

Glerups has a very user friendly website that allows you to browse their product lines to find exactly what you’re looking for. You can search the FAQ section and read all about their family story, as well as the fabulousness of the wool they use for their shoes. They even discuss how to wash and maintain the shoes so you get maximum use out of their products. Though the website allows you to order these products from the comfort of your home, there is also a store locator tab so you can choose to see these terrific products in person before purchasing. There is also a section of testimonials from real customers, and an opportunity to submit your own personal review of their products. Glerups is truly committed to creating unique, high quality shoes that family members of all ages will love and appreciate.

My husband and I are truly enamored with The Shoe from Glerups. My pair is a vibrant red, made of 100% pure wool with a beautiful, natural leather sole. His is a handsome, rustic grey, complete with a black rubber sole. We love that we can wear these shoes with or without socks of any kind, and our feet remain comfortable and dry. They are the perfect footwear for movie watching, sipping hot chocolate by the fire, or even stargazing from the porch on a beautiful summer night. Both the men and women’s shoes fits us perfectly, with just the right amount of support, without the slippage of many traditional indoor shoes. The shoes, themselves, are also quiet, so we don’t have to worry about waking up the children as we walk around the house at night.

The Shoe from Glerups would make the perfect holiday gift for children, teens, and adults of all ages. It is truly an innovative and quality product that your loved ones can enjoy year-round. There are still a few days left before new year, so be sure to visit www.glerups.ca to locate your nearest pair!
