Our Mission
We aim to provide our customers with high-quality wool slippers and house shoes that are not only comfortable and stylish but also sustainably and ethically made. Our products not only enhance the homes of our customers but also contribute to the preservation of Central Asia's cultural heritage.
Our Commitment
We are committed to creating positive social impact by working with a women-owned and operated factory in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan that hires predominantly women and pays everyone a living wage. We believe that empowering women is crucial for sustainable development and social progress.
We also support environmental sustainability by only using high-quality materials, locally sourced wool, vegetable-tanned leather, and minimal and recycled packaging whenever possible.
Why Wool Felt?
Felt has been made around the world since prehistoric times. It has a special place in the cultural heritage of Central Asia. In fact, it was a vital part of the famous silk road trade route. Our factory has updated traditional techniques in order to produce at scale, with modern standards and quality.
We create products for people that care about where their clothing comes from. People that also consider their homes to be a special place and look forward to the ritual of arriving home, taking off outdoor shoes, and embracing their Kyrgies.
Handmade With Pride
Beyond treating its employees fairly, our partner factory is a world leader in wool felting. Every pair of Kyrgies is carefully hand-crafted. The talented artisans that make Kyrgies are devoted to their craft. They work together to make sure that every product meets the high standards we set ourselves. They take their time, paying meticulous attention to every detail, in pursuit of a product that you will want to wear day after day.
