The best school slippers: what to look for when buying?

Back-to-school means lots of preparation – and one of the essentials is a pair of slippers your child will wear every day. School slippers are not just part of the mandatory gear – they play an important role in comfort, well-being, and the healthy development of children's feet. So how do you choose the best ones?

School slippers

1. Comfort and fit

Slippers should be soft, lightweight, and well-fitting. A child’s foot needs support, but also enough room to move naturally. Ideally, there should be about 0.5–1 cm of space at the front.

2. Natural, breathable materials

Children’s feet sweat quickly, so it’s important that slippers are made from breathable materials – like natural leather or cotton. These materials prevent overheating and unpleasant odors. Synthetic materials are definitely not recommended.

3. Non-slip sole

School floors are often smooth, so a non-slip sole is essential for safety. Choose slippers with soles that grip well and prevent slipping.

4. Easy to put on

Especially for younger children, it’s important that slippers are easy to put on – with Velcro, elastic, or a soft instep strap. This helps kids put them on by themselves and feel more independent.

5. Durability and easy cleaning

Since school slippers are worn every day, they need to be durable and easy to clean. Materials that can be wiped with a damp cloth or even washed are a great advantage.

Why are our school slippers the best choice?

At Alenka Copati, we’ve been handcrafting quality slippers for over 35 years. Our school slippers are:

  • Made from ultra-soft natural leather, inside and out – for all-day comfort without blisters.

  • Very durable – suitable for daily use in the classroom, gym, and hallways.

  • Now with a new sole made from natural rubber – flexible, non-slip, and eco-friendly.

What is natural rubber?
It’s a raw material made from latex extracted from rubber trees – elastic, durable, and safe. It absorbs impact well and provides excellent grip.

  • Available in modern and playful designs kids love to wear.

  • Handcrafted in Slovenia, with a focus on healthy foot development.

A tip for parents :)

  • Measure your child’s foot before each school year.

  • Don’t buy oversized slippers “just in case.”

  • Let your child help choose the slippers – they’ll be more excited to wear them.

The best school slippers are those that offer comfort, support healthy foot growth, ensure safety, and are made to last. With us, you get all that – and more. :)
