Why We Love Haflingers: Comfort, Fit & Care Tips

If you’re looking for slippers or clogs that combine natural comfort with lasting durability, Haflingers are a smart choice. Here’s a breakdown of what makes them special—and how to keep them in top shape.

Haflinger Features That Make a Difference

• 100% Boiled Wool Felt Upper → Breathable, durable, and thermo-regulating—keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.

• Wool Felt-Lined Insole → Wicks away moisture, reduces odor, and promotes a healthy foot environment.

• Anatomically Contoured Footbed → Built-in arch support for all-day comfort.

• Cork Midsole → Absorbs shock and molds to your foot over time for a custom fit.

• Slip-Resistant Rubber Outsole → Provides traction for both indoor and outdoor wear.

• Felt-Bottomed Slippers → Same benefits of wool, plus little grippy dots for traction indoors (not suitable for outdoor use).

Haflinger Fit Tips

• Between sizes? Choose the larger size and add a felt insole for the perfect fit.

• Haflingers don’t really stretch—though the cork may mold slightly to your foot—so comfort from the start is key.

Haflinger Care & Cleaning

• Cork Midsole → Spot clean with a damp cloth apply a cork sealer at least twice per year (more often if worn almost daily and worn indoors AND outdoors). Avoid excess water, soap, or detergent to prevent damage.

• Wool Felt Upper/Insole → Brush away dirt with a soft brush or damp, non-pilling cloth. Skip soaps and chemicals to protect the natural wool fibers.

• Rubber Outsole → Clean with a regular brush, but avoid brushing cork, seams, or glued areas.

With the right care, Haflingers become even more comfortable over time, making them a reliable everyday favorite for your feet.
