Felt boots

Felt winter boots are a modern interpretation of traditional Russian shoes for the cool season. It is warm, but well-ventilated, colorful, modern and reliable. Felt as a material is unique. It is a little difficult to clean, but it is incredibly versatile, natural and does not cause allergies, unlike many materials used today.

The manufacture of shoes from felt has been familiar to craftsmen since the time of ancient antiquity, at least from the fifth century BC. For its manufacture, natural wool is taken, which is then “wallowed” in various ways. In the process of felting, the fibers of the wool are intertwined and bonded. It turns out a dense canvas that perfectly heats and at the same time passes air.

In fact, the traditional process of making felt shoes is incredibly exciting and breathes history. It takes place in rooms with a special microclimate, on old equipment, in a unique, cozy atmosphere. Products created in this way are somehow particularly cute and enjoyable to use.

An excellent modern alternative to felt boots using natural materials is warm felt boots. Shoes with lacing, for example, are not much different from ordinary textile or suede options, which are exhibited in any store. But they are definitely warmer and more comfortable. They are especially suitable for those who do not like a park of shoes.

Women's shoes and fashionable felt ankle boots will be appreciated by any fashionista who prefers natural materials. The original models that Zimushka manufactures will appropriately complement any wardrobe:

1. Classic models on an equal footing or on a heel.
2. Low shoes from felt.
3. Felt boots with decor: fur, embroidery, appliqués.

High felt boots with lacing and a multi-layer sole are based on centuries-old shoes - felt boots. But at the same time they look stylish, original, modern. And shoes with pointed rubber soles are the heirs of shortened boots. They not only look original, but also very useful for the legs, because they easily take the shape of the foot and do not squeeze it.

Another interesting option for felt high boots is the cloak. This is a kind of combination of boots and boots, only in a modern, fashionable presentation. The bottom is sewn from leather, the sole is supplemented with a low heel, and the top is made of felt with leather ties, straps or inserts. Unlike felt boots, cloaks are sewn from several pieces of felt, so a greater variety of styles is possible.

Do not forget that felt is a versatile material that is perfect for both the street and the home. If you have cold stone or tiled floors, then home shoes on felt soles will be great shoes that can be worn without socks.

Choosing felt boots, you need to take care of suitable tights in advance. Such shoes are not customary to wear with nylon, thin tights. But woolen, dense options are what you need. Well, if at the same time the color of the tights roughly coincides with the shoes or differs by no more than two or three tones.

The images with unusual felt shoes are very cozy. In general, it looks best when natural materials are used throughout the look: a woolen coat, a sheepskin coat, an insulated denim jacket, a knitted scarf or sweater, and a fur hat. Warm dresses, cardigans, tweed jackets - all this also fits perfectly.

You need to know a little tricks about leaving, but, due to its texture, this material is not very susceptible to pollution:

1. To wash such shoes, you need to prepare a bath with cold water and a detergent for soaking.
2. After felt boots stand in such a solution for 10 minutes, you can rub them, but do not twist and do not squeeze.
3. Then, placing in a towel, you need to squeeze the shoes slightly.
4. And then leave to dry away from heating appliances, previously placing pads on the shoes to maintain the perfect shape.

These manipulations are quite enough for the shoes to serve you for a long time, while maintaining their appearance and shape.
