Slippers
Our slippers are cut according to the usual shoe sizes. Please order slippers according to your normal shoe size. If you already own a matching Giesswein slipper, please order according to this size. Please note that boiled wool slippers will expand slightly over time.
How do I measure correctly?
Take a piece of paper and a pen. Step on the sheet of paper with your foot and mark the heel and tip of your toe with your pen. Do the same with the second foot. Feet are rarely exactly the same length. If you already know the longer foot, it is sufficient to measure its length. Determine length in cm. Please use the ruler to determine the length in cm. The tables below translate the sole length into all common sizes.

Description
A vegan leather shoe? GIESSWEIN has made it possible! In designing our innovative Cactus Sneaker, we’ve used a unique material called cactus leather, which is made from cactus leaves. This exceptional material stands in real competition to animal leather: it’s natural, organic, long-lasting, sustainable and biodegradable! This new comfort wonder shoe from GIESSWEIN is lightweight, flexible, and temperature-regulating. The sole of our Cactus Sneaker, which is made of EVA foam, offers optimal cushioning. Plus, their profile sole made of natural rubber offers optimal grip. This innovative sneaker is rounded off with a padded, Anti-Blister heel made of vegan leather, and a comfortable interchangeable footbed made of organic cotton. The environmental footprint of cactus leather is so extremely small that we’re setting new standards in the sustainable shoe industry in line with our GIESSWEIN Green Strategy.
