The Freewaters Self Employed slippers. As autumn fades and the winter cold bites at our ankles, we must accept that the sandals we have worn everyday for the last six months must be put aside for a while. Refusing to compromise the casual lifestyle, Freewaters HouseShoes are sandals in disguise, engineered for winter. The Self Employed slipper is made with a premium Japanese microsuede (solvent free and vegan friendly) shell, with a ventilation zipper which allows heat to pass up through the mesh panel in the liner. The removable and washable liner will keep your feet healthy and greatly improve the lifespan of the lining. The footbed is made from a toasty warm and super-soft wool and the recycled eco-rubber outsole is kind to your wooden floors and secure on your wooden stairs.
