Slippers have been in our wardrobe for a very long time. They began to be used in ancient Russia. For the manufacture of the first slippers, a variety of materials were used, ranging from leather to various fabrics. And if we talk about today, then the attitude towards slippers, male or female, is very ambiguous. For example, people from abroad do not understand our habit of changing shoes when entering the house into slippers.

Room slippers in different countries

The attitude to slippers in the world is very different. Russia is similar to Japan in this respect. It is also customary to buy comfortable soft shoes for the house and change shoes immediately upon arrival.

In America and Europe, the opposite is true. There, not only slippers are not greatly revered, but they also walk around the house in the same shoes as on the street. This also allows the environment. The streets there are very clean, while Russia, with its harsh climate, cannot boast of ideal pavements. Constant slush, mud and snow force us to change shoes. That is why slippers in almost every home occupy a very honorable place.

How to choose

In order not to be disappointed in the purchase, follow a few simple rules.

  1. The size. Many people think that when choosing slippers, it is not so important and you can choose them 1-2 sizes larger.In fact, slipper size is just as important as any other shoe size if you want them to feel comfortable. Slippers should neither squeeze nor dangle on the foot.

  2. Material. Of course, natural fabrics are always preferable to any other. Soft in this case are in the first place. Comfort and pleasant feeling - that's what the material should bring you.

  3. Sole and seams. It is worth paying special attention to them when buying. They should be well stitched and not noticeable, so as not to cause discomfort to the owner when worn.

The lion's share in the production of slippers is occupied by China, which offers a wide variety of options, including inexpensive ones.
