  • Caring for your Glerups
  • Glerups started with wool from their own Gotland sheep. Over the years they have found the perfect mix of wool to give your glerups a long life. Mixing Gotland wool from Denmark with quality crossbreed white wool from New Zealand, all of which lives up to the highest standards for uniform quality and animal welfare, Glerups uses 100% pure natural wool.

  • Many people use wool to keep warm, but in fact wool can also help keep the body cool. That's because wool absorbs moisture without feeling damp, up to 70% by weight by the way! - This significantly outperforms synthetic fibers or cotton. It is particularly advantageous in the summer when it is hot outside. This way no matter how much you perspire you can stay feeling dry and temperature regulated.

  • Wool is a natural product with self-cleaning properties. This is due to the natural fat of the wool fiber, lanolin. As the sheep get wet, a process is created between the lanolin and the sheep's natural basic salts from perspiration, which together form a natural soap that cleans the wool. To some extent, we benefit from the same characteristics when the wool is transformed into a blouse or a pair of slippers. Therefore, it is not necessary to wash wool products very often - in fact, they are better off just being left to breathe for a nice day in the garden. Yet another benefit for you and nature.

  • Wool is not only sweat-absorbent, but also breathable, naturally! Wool regulates the temperature on the skin, the same way in fact it would for the sheep in nature. This is why you can easily wear wool when you are active in the forest, on the beach or at home in the garden because it transports moisture away from the body. Of course, this also applies to the feet. Just be aware that wool works best on bare skin, which is why we recommend using your slippers with your favorite wool socks, or no socks at all!
  • 1. Since wool has a natural ability to self-clean, your glerups will stay fresh if you simply air them out and allow them to rest.
  • 2. To remove stains we suggest that you gently clean on the stain with at light wet cloth and wool soap. You may have to repeat the process a few times, but make sure that you always leave the slippers to dry before starting over again.

    3. Vacuum or blow your glerups clean of dust. Leather soles can be brushed and cleaned with a leather brush.

    4. Rubber soles can be wiped with a wet cloth – make sure that they get some time to dry after cleaning.

    5. Please be careful – natural rubber or leather soles may be slippery on wet and icy surfaces such as tile.

    6. All our uppers are produced in 100% pure and natural wool and therefore you may experience colour difference from batch to batch.

    7. Your glerups usually shed within the first 3-4 weeks of wear giving you a long-lasting comfortable feel for years to come. This is normal due to the natural treatment of our wool. Simply remove the shedding fibers and discard as desired.
