Ladies travel slipper leather

Formally, this travel slipper resembles the "Belgha", that Arab shoe with the typical turned-in heel cap that is worn like a slipper. Werner makes it from glove-soft Wernebi nappa leather, with the upper, lining and additionally padded insole made of the same material. The outsole of the snug, lightweight slipper is made of Wernebi suede. Folded flat and stowed in the included leather case, it fits in any suitcase. When traveling, it proves practical not only in accommodation. It can also be worn well on the plane or train to relax the feet - and of course it is also a good and elegant alternative to the conventional slipper at home.

Two aspects characterise Werner shoes: natural leathers – if in any way possible chrome-free and vegetable tanned – and a comfortable feel thanks to tried and tested fittings. The family business founded in 1911 is, after all, still in line with its traditional claim to produce beautiful and good shoes. What once began with sturdy work and hiking boots developed into a range comprising chic après-ski boots in the 1970s and 80s and progressed up to the current collection of (casual) shoes for men and women, some sporty, some rather elegant. Werner also actively follows new developments in the leather market. For instance, some shoes feature a lining made of olive leather®. In the tannery, they use olive leaves (residues that accumulate during the annual pruning of the trees), the resulting leather is very skin-friendly. For many years, Werner shoes were made at the company’s founding place in Pirmasens. Today the “quilters” and “nippers” work in south-eastern Europe. The raw materials come from Germany and the neighbouring European countries –in unvaryingly guaranteed high quality –, keeping transport distances as short as possible.
