Should You Wear Shearling Slippers Outside?

(And How to Style Them) 

There’s a quiet rebellion happening on sidewalks everywhere: women are rocking shearling slippers - often with socks- as shoes.   Yes, the very same slippers previously only shuffled around the house. And yet, they communicate not an iota of laziness. In fact, they exude intentionality. They’re almost smug. Hipster. Even fashion-forward. And perfect when paired with this season’s slouchy jeans and a cashmere ‘something’ on top.   Because let’s be honest: we have endured enough suffering in our shoes.   Some left us with toes so numb we Googled ‘symptoms of nerve damage’, the hyper-stiff soled numbers that turned every step into a negotiation with our lower back, the delicately strappy heels that reminded us - despite our three-times-a-week yoga class habit - that a slipped disc is forever. We’ve all worn them. We’ve all said, ‘Never again.’ And then we wear them again, because “they look so good with that dress.” Which is why we would like to suggest the therapeutic in-between, our SHUV Curly-Shearling Two-Bar Slides.   It’s glamorous. It’s fun. It’s devil-may-care in the best possible hanging out at a coffee shop, grabbing your Whole Foods smoothie, to-and-fro-ing from Hot Pilates way. Here’s a ‘how-to-get-started’ guide.

## How to Rock A Pair Of Shearling Slippers   Think of your shearling slippers as the fashion equivalent of a wink. They look unbothered, but they’re actually pulling the whole outfit together.    1. With socks: Yes, socks. This is no longer a moral dilemma. A ribbed crew sock keeps things casually cool (and makes you look like you definitely meant it). Slouch that sock, even, a little around the ankle.   2. With baggy curved jeans: Absolutely. The volume + plush combo is the perfect equation. 3. With a perfectly cut, slouchy sweater and a white t-shirt underneath. It’s the kind of outfit that says, “I woke up with this kind of style,” (if you’re looking).  
## What Your Shearling Slides Will Be Saying About You:
Your slides will be sending out the following messages: - I have taste, but I also have toes that like circulation. - I care about style, but not enough to limp around all weekend. - I’ve opted out of the global conspiracy that shoes must hurt to be chic. - I understand the socks-with-slides option, and I’m not afraid to use it.    ## Can You Really Pull Off Wearing Shearling Slippers in Public?    Yes. Not just for yourself, but as an act of inspiration to women everywhere (or at least those who catch a glimpse of you).  Because every time someone walks into a brunch, the school run, the Whole Foods in a pair of soft shearling slides instead old-school rigid toe-pinchers, it’s a call to arms: style can be funny, comfortable, and chic all at once.
