Veldskoen Shoes, famous for its hand-sewn, locally produced vellis with colorful soles, is expanding its product line with a luxury leather slipper.
The Veldskoen slipper:
The company describes the slipper as a hybrid shoe. A beautiful olive green silky nubuck leather exterior is fully lined with 100% sheepskin, to create luxurious comfort and warmth. Combined with the robust Veldskoen TR sole, used on their other ranges, this means the shoe can also be worn outside the home. If you’ve always wanted to wear your slippers around town, now you can.
When the entire Veldskoen team was working from home during the pandemic, the product development team thought it was time to give South Africa a shoe fit for the new normal. More and more companies have embraced a work-from-home culture, which translates into business casual attire.
The slippers will be exclusively available for sale on veldskoen.com and retail at R1,399.
