Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these slippers waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent finish on the ripstop upper, which protects against light moisture and splashes, but they are not fully waterproof for submersion.
Can these be worn outside?
Yes, the full-sheet rubber outsole provides the traction needed for light outdoor use such as backyards or driveways.
How do I clean the fleece interior?
Use a soft brush to lift any lint and spot clean with a slightly damp cloth. Do not soak the lining.
Is the material sustainable?
The upper is constructed from recycled ripstop PET materials.
Do they provide good arch support?
These are designed as comfort slippers and offer minimal arch support compared to dedicated hiking or athletic footwear.
What happens if they get wet?
The Thermoball insulation is designed to retain heat even when wet, unlike traditional down which loses its loft.
Troubleshooting
Slippers feel slightly loose during movement
Ensure the child is wearing appropriate thickness socks to fill the volume and improve overall security.
Outer shell looks dull or dirty
Gently wipe the ripstop surface with a clean cloth dampened with cool water and a tiny amount of mild detergent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These slippers are ready to wear immediately out of the box with no break-in period required. To maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish, avoid machine washing when possible. If the slippers become soiled, spot clean the ripstop upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them away from direct heat sources to preserve the elasticity of the side panels and the shape of the internal padding. Ensure the foot size matches the specific UK sizing provided to guarantee a secure, comfortable fit that does not slide off the heel during movement.
