1. Why Choose Vegetable-Tanned Leather
Walking barefoot at home feels liberating, yet your feet still face cold floors, shocks and germs. CP Slippers’ barefoot Napa leather acts like a second skin—protecting without altering natural gait, while molding to your foot within days for a truly custom fit.
2. Leather vs. Synthetic Materials
Breathability: Genuine leather is roughly 30 % more porous than PVC or PU, reducing sweat and odor.
Thermal insulation: It keeps feet up to 3 °C warmer in winter and 2 °C cooler in summer.
Sustainability: Vegetable tanning relies on natural tannins, cutting micro-plastics at home.
3. Foot-Health Benefits
- Anatomical support: A well-supported arch aligns ankle, knee and hip, easing plantar fasciitis.
- Thermoregulation: Leather balances moisture and temperature inside the slipper.
- Fewer microbes: Natural tannins act as mild antifungal and antibacterial agents.
- Podiatric approval: Flexible, impact-absorbing soles meet APMA foot-health guidelines.
4. How to Pick Your Barefoot Size
- Stand on a sheet of paper; mark heel and longest toe.
- Measure the distance in cm and add 3 mm of wiggle room.
- Match the length to CP Slippers’ EU size chart.
Pro tip: For wide feet, Napa leather will stretch up to 7 % without losing shape—so avoid oversizing to prevent rubbing.
5. Care & Maintenance
- Weekly clean: Wipe with a damp cloth; air-dry away from direct heat.
- Monthly condition: Apply clear beeswax balm to keep leather supple.
- Natural deodorize: Mist with 2-3 % white-vinegar solution; let dry thoroughly.
- Storage: Keep in a cotton bag, out of direct sunlight.
6. Style & Everyday Use
Minimalist design pairs beautifully with loungewear, linen pajamas or relaxed denim for WFH days. Non-slip suede soles stay secure on polished floors, tiles or hardwood.
7. FAQs
Does the leather turn stiff over time?
No. Vegetable-tanned leather develops a flexible patina; monthly conditioning keeps it soft.
Are they suitable for summer?
Absolutely. High breathability prevents heat and moisture build-up, even in hot climates.
Can people with diabetes wear them?
Yes. Seam-free lining and a flat sole minimize pressure points, making them diabetes-friendly. Always consult your podiatrist for individual needs.
