Wool Bootie with Rubber Sole and Arch Support - Light Gray
Our redesigned rubber soles sport deeper non-skid treads for enhanced grip indoors and out. Now you can comfortably step out in your Baabushkas to pick up the mail, do some gardening, walk the dog, and more.
Baabushka's footwear is handmade by artisans living in the beautiful Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. Using sheep’s wool, water, and organic soap, our artisans use traditional felt crafting techniques handed down through generations. The result is soft yet durable footwear. The felted wool is gentle on your feet —naturally insulating, yet allowing your skin to breathe— so you can enjoy wearing your Baabushka footwear year-round.
The bootie style is designed to conform to the contours of your foot and comes up past your ankle, ensuring a comfortable fit that will not slip off.
Find your size: Use this page to make sure the bootie perfectly fits your feet! Refer to the graphic below, or download a copy to print out.
Materials: All-natural wool sourced from New Zealand with cast latex rubber soles and insoles.
Care: Spot-clean the surface by hand with a damp cloth and allow them to air-dry in indirect light. Soaking the slippers, placing them in a washing machine or heated drying can cause the wool to shrink.
Please note: As with all handmade items using natural materials, each pair of booties can come with subtle variations.
Every Baabushka slipper and bootie features the personal signature of the Nepali artisan who created it. Your purchase is a contribution to these women's financial empowerment. You are promoting their independence, providing their children the opportunity to attend school, and enabling their expanded role in their developing society's economic growth.

United StatesI finally treated myself to these booties after looking at them for a while and I LOVE THEM. So soft and cozy but also practical and functional. They are my go to shoes for walking the dog and quick errands, I’ve even walked a few miles in them. I get regularly stopped by people asking where I got my shoes!
United StatesI have loved these slippers! They are warm with or without socks. I was tired of my feet always being so cold in the winter. These have been just what I have been looking for. The soles are thick enough to support my feet aka my feet don’t hurt after wearing them for a long time. The rubber soles are thick and amazing for stepping outside. My neighbors were so impressed they ordered some for themselves!
United StatesI am EXTREMELY picky and particular when it comes to slippers. I have worm LLBean slippers for years but after learning about their absolutely horrendous manufacturing processes, I could never again shop there in good conscious. I received these Baabushka hardsole wool slippers today and I am so extremely impressed with them. I am typically an 8.5, but I wear in 8 in brands with whole sizes only (Bean, Ugg) and the 38s are perfect to wear barefoot, which is my preferred way to wear slippers. The rubber sole is perfect. To step out to get the mail, and the arch support is incredible. I never realized what I was missing out on in other brands of slippers! I am so happy to have discovered this brand [¥ their ethical practices. I am assuming these slippers will be durable, and if they are, I am a customer for life!
