Woolen Knitted Floral Women's Popes

100% Natural Wool Insulation

Wool is nature's finest thermal fiber. It traps warm air close to the skin while letting moisture evaporate naturally, keeping feet dry, odor-free, and comfortably warm on cold hardwood or tile floors.

Artisan Craftsmanship & Unique Floral Motif

Handcrafted by experienced local artisans, these traditional slippers (known regionally as pape or priglavci) showcase intricate raised floral needlework. Available with lilac-purple or marigold-yellow blooms complemented by lush green leaves.

Flexible & Cushioned Fit

The chunky garter-stitch knit naturally expands to contour the shape of the foot and ankle, offering cozy cushioning without rigid soles or restrictive elastic.

Heritage & Thoughtful Gifting

A heartfelt cultural keepsake for the Balkan diaspora and a cherished find for eco-conscious lovers of traditional folk knitwear worldwide.

FAQ / Frequently asked questions

1. Do these wool paps stretch and how to choose the right size?

Wool has a natural elasticity and adjusts to the width of the foot after a few wears, so you can order the standard shoe size you normally wear.

2. How to properly wash and maintain woolen popes?

The rugs are washed by hand in lukewarm water up to 30°C with mild shampoo or liquid detergent for wool, without rough wringing, and dried horizontally on a towel.

3. Can these popes be worn directly on bare feet?

They can be worn on bare feet due to direct contact with healing natural wool, but if you have extremely sensitive skin, we recommend wearing them over thin cotton socks.

4. Do the popes have anti-slip soles?

The slippers are completely knitted from soft natural wool without a hard sole, which makes them extremely flexible and comfortable for resting on the bed or couch, as well as for walking on carpets.
