Dear everyone,We are a manufacturer of slippers specializing in R&D. We have been in the slipper industry for more than 10 years and understand how a good pair or slippers means to people. Today, we’re not here to discuss advertising but to chat with you about outdoor slippers — those details you might overlook but with a big influence on wear.
1. Why You Need A Pair Of Professional Outdoor Slippers?
You know many people say, “Slippers, just wear them casually.” But in many cases, plain old slippers just won’t do:
Sandy Beach Walking: Ordinary slippers suddenly feels not slip-resistant, and the foot is very pained when it is scratched after sand scratching, walking has not taken a few steps, it was uncomfortable to want to throw away the flip-flop slippers.
Sliding on rainy days: The poor slippers directly slide when they touch the water, and you are not careful “turn flip-flops into flip-flops”.
Camping and hiking: It takes a long way to walk, and the soft soles fall, and the soles of your feet hurt and you can't walk far.
Our suggestions:
If you’re always involve in some kinds of outdoor activities, then you really need to prepare a pair of non-slip, wear-resistance exquisite slippers for yourself, which is truly a happiness!
2. The outdoorsy slippers’ “core tech”: not a gimmick, but an actual need
As a manufacturer, we devote the most attention in the R&D process to the following aspects:
(1）Anti-slip: The most important is safety
Sole pattern design The sole pattern of outdoor slippers should be deeper and more complex, and grip the ground like tires.
Material: Common EVA soles are slippery, easy to water. We rely on rubber soles or special non-slip compounds instead, both of which can be as steady as a mountain even when wet.
(2)Support: You will not get tired even in case of a long walk
Arch design:It is very common to develop a flat foot, or "fallen arch", later in life, especially if one suffers from injuries or wear and tear. We’ll add a little curve to the footbed to accommodate the arch and spread load.
Midsole damping: Elastic material (High-elastic EVA) added to make the walking light and rebound eliminates the fatigue.
(3) Durability: Wearing a pair of shoes for three years is the right way to save money.
Tear-resistant Upper PVC or EVA material are easy to broke, we use the more robust woven strap+TPU or reinforce EVA, to withstand the pull tore.
Wear-resistant sole: High quality rubber added carbon fiber is more wear-resistant and no fear of stepping on sharp rocks or stones.
3. How to select the outdoor slippers for different purposes?
(1) Scrambling on the beach or river: quick draining + sand guard
Tip: hollow design + quick-drying material (such as EVA), no sand, water is dry in seconds.
Pitfalls to avoid: Skip cloth slippers — they are heavy and hard to dry when wet.
(2) Camping/hiking: support + anti-slip
Suggestion: thick sole + arch support can make you feel no pain, walking on gravel road, in which you will not slip or slide.
Watch out for: Soles that are too soft can allow your feet to feel sore when you’ve been doing a lot of walking.
(3) Light + versatile Urban + daily life: So these would be.
Recommendation: the design is simple and the weight is light, and it can be worn for walking with shorts.
Pitfalls to avoid: Dare not wear styles that are too "outdoor-style" which could appear weird if worn as an everyday.
4. Manufacturers’ candid descriptions: We have Helped you tread down these “pitfalls”
Having worked in the slipper industry for so many years, many problems are reported by consumers as follows:
The sole is too thin and the foot hurts when walking few steps→ midsole of the outdoor models we do at the moment has minimum of 2cm.
“Fell apart in a month” → Change it for high density EVA and reinforcement ribs, Lifespan increased by 3 times.
Therefore, when buying outdoor slippers, it is recommended to pay attention to:
Sole thickness (recommended ≥2cm, better shock absorption)
Sole material (rubber> ordinary EVA)
Upper structure (one-piece molding> glue bonding, more durable)
5. Final small suggestion: Don't settle, your feet deserve better
As a manufacturer, we know that the cost of a pair of good slippers may be 30% higher than ordinary ones, but the comfort and durability in return are definitely worth it.
If you often do outdoor activities, or just want to find a pair of durable and comfortable slippers, you might as well try a professional outdoor model - it may not surprise you, but it will definitely make you "never go back after wearing it".
After all, life is long, why let your feet suffer?
