Recycled wool slippers

The main advantages of wool

Wool is a high-quality natural fiber. Derived from the fleece of sheep and goats, it has many notable advantages. Used in the textile sector for decades, it is used in the composition of many items such as hats, sweaters and scarves. It is also found in certain mid-season ready-to-wear items, such as undershirts. Note: professional athletes and explorers particularly appreciate it for its insulating qualities and exceptional softness.

Wool, a naturally breathable fiber

Composed of approximately 80% air, wool has a unique ability to retain body heat while limiting the infiltration of outside air. This property makes it a preferred material for winter clothing (sweaters, hats, gloves, etc.), because it helps to retain heat and gradually diffuse it according to temperature fluctuations. Unlike synthetic fibers such as nylon, polyester or cotton, wool offers incomparable thermoregulatory qualities.

A sustainable and renewable raw material

Wool farming is part of a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach. Sheep raised for their meat also produce wool, a renewable natural resource. Certain breeds of sheep, in particular, provide a fleece prized for its robustness and quality. For generations, this material has been used to make mattresses renowned for their longevity.

In recent years, many artisans have developed innovative methods for recycling wool from clothing and textiles. At Caussün , our range of slippers incorporate recovered and recycled natural materials.

Why choose recycled wool?

At Caussün , we have created a collection of slippers made from recycled wool. Our mission is to offer items made from reused materials, whether natural fibers or leather pieces.

Supporting the circular economy
Wool, used for centuries to make clothing and insulate homes, is a perfect example of sustainable development. Coming from sheep raised in Europe, it is cleaned, sorted and carded before being reused. However, the industrial washing process, as it is practiced today, remains very water-intensive.

By choosing one of our slippers, you are actively participating in the circular economy. You are supporting our commitment to designing collections using recycled and natural materials. No more synthetic materials like nylon, make way for revalued materials! Our Caussün slippers are made with recycled ecological wool, while the insoles are made from recovered and recycled cotton.

Choosing recycled natural fibers in the manufacture of clothing or slippers does not compromise the quality of the product. Our Caussün slippers are popular for:

• the solidity of their soles;
• the extreme comfort of their cotton interior and their uppers;
• the care taken in the finishes, with leather details and robust stitching.

Consume locally and in an eco-responsible manner

At Caussün , our ambition is to create comfortable and practical shoes and slippers, while reusing materials that have already been used. This approach is part of a truly circular process. By choosing a pair of slippers from our brand, you affirm your desire to consume in an eco-responsible way.

We make a point of promoting traditional techniques, including wool carding, an ancestral method for untangling and aerating recycled fibers. These operations are carried out in our workshops in Portugal, where skilled craftsmen use mechanical tools to guarantee the quality of the process.

As the textile industry is one of the largest consumers of resources, both in terms of energy and water, Caussün is committed to promoting alternative production based on recycled materials, often destined to be thrown away. Whether it is sheep or goat wool, or recycled cotton, these materials are increasingly present in our ready-to-wear collections in Europe. If you want to support a local and circular economy, while favoring quality and sustainable products, the Caussün slipper collections will meet your expectations.
