ABE Canvas Home Shoes - Wool-Lined
$ 66.00 USD
A trusty pair of slippers are an easy way to slip into relaxation without dragging the outside elements into your home. This pair, from one of Japan’s leading slipper makers, checks all of the boxes with its good looks, functionality, and comfort. Its shell is made from “No. 8” duck canvas, a material often found in sneakers thanks to its excellent strength, breathability, and ease of cleaning. Taking inspiration from the traditional slippers of Morocco, its 2-way “babouche” heel allows you to wear it both down, like a slipper, or up, like a shoe when you’re on the move. Underfoot, a soft lightly-padded suede-like sole offers subtle traction and protects floors from scuffs and scratches.
This version ups the comfort level by including a recycled wool liner that is sure to keep your feet toasty on the coldest nights. The non-lined version is available here.

About Kontex
Gentle on the skin and kind to the environment, Kontex has been crafting high-quality towels in Imabari, Japan since 1934. Each towel is made from fine, garment quality thread that’s loosely twisted for the highest level of softness. Such threads would break on modern machines, thus Kontex towels are gently woven on traditional, low-speed looms to maintain the integrity of the thread and achieve a level of softness that modern machines cannot reproduce.
Kontex textiles are carefully washed with large quantities of fresh spring water from the melted snow of Mt. Ishizuchi, ensuring every thread is free from impurities. Known for their compact size, contemporary designs, and powerful absorbency, Kontex towels are suitable for the kitchen or bath.
