Winterslipper
At birth I was given the best shoes you could ask for. They never wear out fit perfectly and are great for your posture.
You need some heel hook there. Otherwise your body will use your toe to prevent the slippers from flying away with each step. That will reverberate through out your body and negatively impact your posture.
Gotta put in a new 220 circuit in a home next week. Probably gonna be raining. These shoes any good for that type of work? We here for the #zaps, right?
🤙
I need one of this as we enter dry season here in Africa.
Prepare winter slippers 🩴 😉
Not gonna lie they do look damn comfy. Fir lined would be great for winter!
this looks uncomfortable to me. any other recommendations please ? preferably more secure which doesn't tend to slip off ..
We have styles with a closed heel too
Hmmm🤔
…but then every time I looked down I’d have to admit that thing was on my foot😳🥴🙈
To each his own…but not for me🤷🏽♂️
Very based
Nope.
ya these are sweet
If i wore those my kids would refuse to go out with me. I’d still wear them mind you 😂
It looks really good and I love the idea of copper on the outsole for electrical discharge. But I worry that in the event of a lightning strike, lightning often looks for the path of least resistance to the ground, and a copper plug could, in theory, act as that pathway. I had 2 pairs of ESD shoes and it used conductive rubber and conductive plastic at its sole - but sometimes they do add metallic particle - hence I presume there can be some composition of metal and it is still safe, but I don't know how much. In theory the shoes feel like an ideal pair of mules but I worry you might risk yourself esp during stormy weather. Would you be able to check with them first ?
uhh….
Thanks Jack 🫡
shoes look great, love the selections of leather type for soles and upper part. My dad had something like this a long time do you. Did you do lightning conductance test and esd discharge test ?
Glad you like them! Yes, they’re conductive even without the copper but copper is highly conductive so improves it a lot. We’ve had some great tests posted on X we’ll work on sharing here!
that's great, and yea the rubbing of leather against ground is a good static discharge on its own. As long as its tested against electrical hazard, dielectric strength etc to ensure wearer is not harmed from lightning strike. I think they test it in both dry and wet conditions and infuse up to several k V but lightning can go up to million volts and would go through the least resistant (most conductive path) hence why some grounding shoes tend to come with lightning disclaimers.
Because the shoes are highly conductive, they can discharge static effectively, but high conductivity can be paradoxical as it can also create a pathway for other currents (exposed wiring, possibly lightning which has up to 100,000 amps and electrocute someone). Franklin has static sparks transfer from stormy clouds to metal keys to his knuckles through a wet string.
Typically esd shoes with metallic particles have resistance shields. If you have tested it that's great, if you have not, then many industry standard labs can test for electrical hazard / resistance / dielectric strength tests and others alike.
Back in the old days, cars tend to have grounding strips to discharge static, but cars also have a metal shield that works as Faraday Cage. Leather shoes, even if highly conductive, would not work like Faraday Cage.
If you want people to make safe and conscious choice, you can include disclaimer for lightning, exposed wiring, power lines etc.
I love your shoes. Good luck nostr:npub1c5t50lnugjyxr6rk6t5j03djd424qdfqn7km689c7ppt0ns8kens3wmqw6 and hope these helps! ❤️
Cc nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m - love your childlike enthusiasm and genuine kindness, but try to alive while at it ok?
Now sales will soar!
I'll wear them with my Satoshi t-shirt...🤭
Oh my now we are talking. I need this.
I think these are the ones I am gonna start with. Maybe. https://rhizal.co/collections/womens/products/brio-slip-on-raw-calfskin-womens?variant=41741900742715
Please let us know how they fit and feel. I’m interested but curious about comfort and fit.
Super relaxed/comfy, wide toe. Lots of reviews on the site too. Also free returns/exchanges, lmk if any questions!
Sadly these didn't fit. One size was too small and the next too big. Hope one day they will make half size ones as I really liked these and wish they would have fit. Gonna try the Kuyu Sherpa but it has been a few weeks wait since they are out of stock on my potential size. Will keep you posted when I receive them :)
That's was fast nostr:nprofile1qqsv2968le7yfzrpapmd96f8ckex642sx5sfltdarju0qs4hecrmvecpzdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ukzcnvv5hx7un8qyv8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndehhyapwwdhkx6tpdsq3samnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3w0fhk2mpwdejhgam0wf4snaeuk4 I just received my pair. I think I am digging them! They feel special. Sadly the size I got is feels a tad too small. A little worried the next size might be too wide, but we shall see. They are very similar to my quite worn off vivos that I acttually love a ton and still wearing a lot. 
Hard
Can I rock them without socks?
Still will be grounded yeah, especially once slightly sweating as the helps the sock conduct, and best if natural fibers like wool/cotton. Most wear sockless tho, won’t smell!
Can’t afford that, I need to keep stacking 🤪
Bet they smell amazing when they get wet
These are sick
