Let me start by saying that I adore Haflinger shoes. Before purchasing this pair, I already owned 3 others. If you're new to the Haflinger brand, in my experience, they run big (like Birkenstock's). For example, in spite of the fact that I normally wear a size 8, in Haflinger's I have consistently worn a 38 (by their definition, a 7). That said, I really struggled with this shoe. I have the Fletcher's in brown in a 38 and they fit great. I ordered a 38 in this grey Fletcher with confidence and I was very surprised and disappointed to discover that the 38 was too short - we're talking toes at the end of the shoe, cramps in my feet - short. I returned that 38 and ordered a 39. I was disgruntled, but confident that the 39 would work. I was further disappointed and frankly irritated, to discover that the 39 was FAR too long and sloppy on my foot. I set the 39 aside and ordered another 38 in hopes that the first one I ordered was somehow off. The second pair of 38's are better, but still shorter than any of the other 38's that I own by Haflinger. The bottom line, in my experience, while Haflinger normally runs a full size big, this shoe is only maybe a half a size bigger than the US size listed. They are very roomy in the toe box and fit a wide foot nicely. Narrow footed people beware, you'll need heavy socks.
Sizing aside,these are just wonderful shoes. The boiled wool is incredibly durable, versatile and warm. They are comfortable with or without socks because they breathe beautifully but they keep your feet toasty warm. I have owned my other pair of Fletcher's for years (maybe 5?) and aside from some heel-wool wear, they look new. They have a decent amount of arch support and offer a nice amount of cushioning. I highly recommend this shoe and this brand.

HAFLINGER SLIPPERSProducts by HAFLINGER focus on providing a healthy foot climate through insulation and breathability, crucial for a balanced and energy conserving lifestyle. Arch support is a very important feature and something the brand is famous for. Haflinger slippers have a thick felted outsole, softer than its cork relations and very popular for the softness of the step. CARE INSTRUCTIONS Machine wash warm with mild detergent on gentle cycle for 5 minutes. Machine dry gently for several minutes to release excess moisture. Stuff slipper with paper overnight and allow to air-dry. |
HAFLINGER CLOGSAll-natural materials, such as boiled wool and wool felt, are real miracles of breathability, flexibility, and sturdiness promising to keep your feet pleasantly dry and ventilated at all times, snuggly warm throughout a cold winter and nicely cooled during a hot summer. The popular women's and men's wool felt clog comes in different varieties and sizes, but always with the same reliable and healthy cork-latex footbed that will mold to the shape of your feet and support your arches. CARE INSTRUCTIONS Machine wash warm with mild detergent on gentle cycle for 5 minutes. Machine dry gently for several minutes to release excess moisture. Stuff slipper with paper overnight and allow to air-dry. |
HAFLINGER SLIPPERBOOTSThe slipper boot formerly popular amongst wandering folk, HAFLINGER has turned it into a part of thousands of happy households all over the world. Contrary to HAFLINGER clogs and house slippers, these wonderfully warm and inclusive sock-like hybrids are made almost entirely of boiled wool. The yarn is knit before it is felted, giving it a very special and unique structure. Boiled wool is much softer and flexible, but equally breathable and insulating. CARE INSTRUCTIONS Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris that has accumulated. For heavier dirt build up, spot with a damp cloth and brush gently. We do not recommend that you apply chemicals or soaps to the wool felt-this could compromise the natural breathability and strength of the felt. |
