BBOHE slippers are handmade from natural fibres, the main fibre being alpaca fleece, using the traditional wet-felting process. The fibres are carefully layered, felted and shaped by hand to create a warm, soft and durable slipper.Most of the alpaca fibre I work with is grown here on our farm in the Southern Tablelands of NSW. Depending on the design, I may also incorporate wool, silk, mohair or other natural fibres to create colour, texture and a little surface detail.Every pair is individually handmade, so subtle variations in colour, texture and shape are part of what makes them uniquely BBOHE.

BBOHE slippers are handmade in Australia on our alpaca farm in the Southern Tablelands of NSW.I make each pair myself, from preparing and laying out the fibres through to wet felting, shaping, finishing and adding the soles. Where possible, I use alpaca fleece grown on our own farm, alongside Australian wool and other carefully chosen natural fibres.BBOHE is very much a farm-to-felt, small-scale handmade business. There is no factory production — every pair passes through my hands in the studio.

BBOHE felt slippers are made to fit your actual foot measurements, rather than relying solely on your usual shoe size. I provide a measurement guide with each slipper style to help you choose the best fit.Wet-felted wool and alpaca slippers behave differently from leather or fabric shoes. They have some natural give and will mould gently to your feet with wear, but they don't stretch dramatically like a pair of leather shoes.For the best fit, measure the length of your foot and the width. If you're between sizes or unsure, I'm very happy to help you choose before you order.

Your slippers are handmade to order, rather than taken from a factory production line. Please allow up to 21 days for your slippers to be made, although they may be completed sooner depending on my current workload.Wet felting is a hands-on process and your slippers need time for felting, shaping, drying and finishing before they're ready to leave the studio.Once they're finished, I'll package them carefully and send them by Australia Post. You'll receive tracking information when your order is on its way.

Sometimes, yes. Because BBOHE slippers are individually handmade, I can often create a custom colour combination or make small changes to an existing design.The possibilities depend on the fibres and colours I have available, and some designs are deliberately made only in a particular colourway. Custom work also takes a little longer because your slippers are made specifically for you.If you have something particular in mind, get in touch before ordering and we can see what might be possible.
