Lambskin slippers for women
Lamb or sheepskins have been used in a variety of ways for over 3,000 years. In addition to being used as individual skins, lambskins are often used in the clothing industry and in shoe production in the form of lambskin shoes. Millions of skins are discarded every year as a by-product of meat production. Therefore, the sheep for our lambskin slippers do not have to die for their fur. We use selected, high-quality lambskins, which are a by-product of the meat industry, for our fur slippers.
The natural properties of lambskin and the thick wool fibers inside the lambskin shoes ensure that the air circulates. Your feet therefore always maintain their body temperature and never get too hot or too cold. Our lambskin slippers also feel particularly cozy and soft. Gottstein fur slippers are available in various designs and keep your feet warm as lambskin slippers and fur slippers - without making you sweat! Our fur slippers have a shock-absorbing EVA sole or a leather sole. The abbreviation EVA stands for ethylene vinyl acetate. This is a rubber-like plastic that is particularly heat-resistant and durable. The T1 model has an elegant leather sole.
Lambskin slippers are a blessing for cold women's feet. Their temperature-regulating properties make them suitable for wearing in both summer and winter. The durable and hard-wearing suede leather that forms the outside of the lambskin slippers is vegetable-tanned. The inside of the fur slippers is cuddly, soft and warm. This makes them uniquely comfortable to wear.
What makes lambskin slippers for women so special?
Lambskin is an exceptional material with many positive properties. Lambskins are often used in the luxury sector and are also becoming increasingly popular with fashion and design lovers.
The quality of the lambskin slippers depends on the quality of the leather and wool as well as the way they are processed. Twin-face" lambskin slippers are made from a single, vegetable-tanned lambskin. Lambskin slippers made from "Twin-Face", as we process them, are the highest quality and most expensive of their kind. With vegetable-tanned leather on the outside and the finest new wool on the inside, our lambskin slippers have ideal, heat-regulating properties. They are particularly cozy and soft and adapt perfectly to your feet.
Our lambskin slippers are vegetable-tanned and can be returned to the natural cycle without hesitation when they expire. Even though vegetable tanning is considerably more time-consuming and costly than chrome tanning, this extra effort is worth it for the sake of our environment.
Lambskin slippers also have a number of other positive properties. Compared to lined shoes, the wool can develop its full positive effect directly on the skin. Lambskin has a beneficial effect on your health and impresses with the following special features:

What should you look out for when buying lambskin slippers?
When buying lambskin slippers for women, there are differences in quality. In addition to the density of the wool and its sheen, the way the animals are kept and the type of tanning are decisive for the quality of the lambskin. Another important factor is the tanning of the lambskin. Our lambskins are vegetable tanned. Bark is used as the tanning agent and the skins are tanned in a special pit. The tanning process takes approx. 8 months. Vegetable tanning is more time-consuming and costly than chrome tanning.
High-quality lambskins also differ in price from those where compromises have been made in animal husbandry or tanning.
Our lambskin slippers are of very high quality and are vegetable tanned. The lambskins we use are a waste product from the food industry. All sheep are raised in a sheltered environment and meet the highest quality standards.
Are lambskin slippers for women only suitable for winter?
As wool has temperature-regulating properties, fur slippers can be worn in both winter and summer. Wool is both a thermostat and a hygrostat.

In winter, this prevents your feet from feeling cold and freezing. Cuddly soft lambskin slippers are temperature-regulating and therefore an all-rounder for the whole year and for all seasons.
How long do Gottstein lambskin slippers for women last?

The upper material of our lambskin slippers is fine suede leather. For coarse soiling, suede should be carefully brushed out with a soft brush. You should always brush in one direction. Stubborn stains can be removed with a special cleaning eraser. The suede should then be brushed out with light movements of the brush.

You are welcome to air out your lambskin slippers for women in the fresh air from time to time. Make sure that your lambskin slippers are not exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time.

Dried stains can simply be removed with a brush. Under no circumstances should you put your lambskin slippers in the washing machine.
How can I make my lambskin slippers fluffy again?
The lambskin may become matted over time, making it a little less cuddly. The tangled wool fibers can easily be separated by brushing and the coat becomes fluffy and cuddly again. There are special coat brushes or currycombs for this purpose. The suede on the outside of your lambskin slippers can be cleaned with a damp cloth if it is very dirty. There are also special suede brushes that can be used to roughen the surface and brush out dirt.

Lambskin slippers must not be completely soaked, as this makes the leather hard and brittle. Washing your lambskin slippers in the washing machine is therefore a hindrance if you want to enjoy your lambskin slippers for a long time. Lambskin is antibacterial and self-cleaning, so it is not necessary to clean your lambskin slippers in the washing machine.
