Handmade in Issyk-Kul

The workshop behind our slippers.

Our felt slippers come from a small, hard-working family workshop on Lake Issyk-Kul in Kyrgyzstan — handmade, high-quality, from pure wool. Felt has kept feet warm across the steppe for centuries, and these slippers carry that tradition straight to a Swiss floor.

They are felted seamless — one continuous piece of wool, with nothing to peel or come unglued — and finished for a soft, barefoot fit. Available in natural and dyed wool, in sizes 36–49.

How Aruufelt began
Three sacks of raw wool, and a bus stop in the fog.
