##Handcrafted in Italy Located in Corridonia, Italy is a small family owned and operated atelier that has been making exceptional footwear with a focus on quality and construction since 1905. Excellence in shoemaking has been an obsession and never-ending quest that has spanned three generations of this family. As skills are passed from generation to generation there is an insistence to remain in-touch with developments in technology to ensure that both worlds, old and new are always respected in order to achieve the highest quality, most comfortable and longest lasting purpose built shoes.

##Shearling, by nature, is the The shearling used for our slippers comes from Italian lamb, selected for its exceptional softness and luxurious plush feel. We utilize curly shearling for its natural characteristics, and carefully dye it to the color desired for our shearling slipper range. We worked side by side with our artisan in Corridonia to choose the best quality for purposes of indoor footwear and fell in love with our version the moment we saw the finished slipper. From our house to yours, this shearling lives up to its rich Italian heritage in both quality and concept.
