In 1993, Danish mother Nanny Glerup
hand crafted a pair of slippers using the natural wool
from her own Gotland sheep. So well were the slippers
loved by family and friends, that Nanny’s hobby soon
became a small-scale production – two pairs a day! That
was the beginning of glerups.
Nanny and her husband Ove worked hard over the years
to improve glerups. Many machines and tools were
invented and trashed to keep up with growing demand
for this indoor shoe. Today, glerups “addicts” all over the
world get their daily “fix” of 100% pure, natural wool
that is still crafted with love and care from the sheep to
your foot.
We hope you enjoy the “all year comfort”
of your new glerups.

HAND CRAFTED FROM 100% PURE NATURAL WOOL
The wool is washed in soft water, then carded and
felted. The felt is formed into socks, which are
steam-felted for a perfect fit before soft calfskin
soles are glued, then sewn on, for lasting durability.
HOW NATURE CREATES WOOL
The technical wonder of wool starts at the root of
the fiber. Before leaving the sheep’s follicles each
wool fiber is coated in sweat salts and grease (lanolin),
which together form a perfect “clothing” for the
sheep. The lanolin protects the wool fiber against
sun, rain and wind. The lanolin and the lye in the
sweat salts work together to keep the sheep clean.
When the sheep gets wet, the basic salts of lye
dissolve and together with the lanolin form a natural
“soap” to keep the sheep clean. The sheep can
keep the same “clothes” for many months without
being uncomfortable. glerups’ soft water wash has
the same effect. It activates the salts of lye and
lanolin to create the natural “soap” just like in nature,
to clean the wool.
In the wool fibers’ outer layers, fat and protein are
so tightly bound to each other that the wool fiber
is completely closed to fluids. Water vapor can pass
through to keep you comfortable while sweat cannot
get into the actual wool fiber ensuring less perspiration
odor to keep people around you comfortable.
Wool keeps the sheep’s bare skin just the right
temperature and it will do the same for your bare
skin. We recommend that you try your glerups without
socks. Wool and skin work naturally together.

FROM FARM TO FOOT
glerups started with wool from
the family’s own Gotland sheep.
But at glerups, we never stand still! Over the years glerups
perfected the wool mix by blending Gotland wool with
soft quality wool from New Zealand farmers.
These farmers meet glerup’s high standards for consistent
quality and humane animal welfare.
We work with our farmers every step of the way and
follow each pair of glerups from the sheep to your feet.
After the sheep are sheared, glerups wool goes
through many processes and hands to
ensure the highest quality and a perfect fit.
We take our time to make it right.
This is true Danish craftsmanship,
down on the farm.

Since wool has a natural ability to self-clean,
your glerups will stay fresh if you simply
air them out and allow them to rest. Vacuum or
blow your shoes clean of dust.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL
Natural rubber or leather soles may be slippery on wet
and icy surfaces such as tile.

HOW TO MEASURE THE LENGTH OF YOUR FOOT PROPERLY 1. Place the heel against a wall.
2. Measure from the wall to the tip of your longest toe.
NOTE:
One foot is often longer than the other, so measure the longest foot. For children
add 10mm to the measured length, leaving room for small feet to grow.
