Chimney Sheep Snug Feet Wool Insoles

We’re really proud to be collaborating with Chimney Sheep, a brilliant Cumbrian business based close to the Lake District, who make wonderfully useful products from locally sourced Herdwick sheep wool. And we’ve found something from them that we think is going to be particularly useful for barefoot shoe wearers – Snug Feet wool insoles. Made from 100% Herdwick wool, these lovely thick insoles add a warm, cosy layer inside your barefoot shoes and boots – perfect for keeping your feet warmer through the winter without resorting to a heavily insulated shoe. Herdwick sheep spend their lives out on the Cumbrian fells, producing a naturally coarse, durable wool with fantastic insulating properties. Chimney Sheep collect their wool directly from local farmers, and the Snug Feet insoles are made using waste felt from the production of their famous chimney draught excluders – making use of material that might otherwise go to waste. Wool is naturally warm, breathable, moisture-regulating and odour resistant, making it a great material to have next to your feet. The insoles start at around 10mm thick, giving them a lovely soft, bouncy feel, then compress and mould to your feet with wear. They can easily be trimmed to fit your barefoot shoes – simply take out your existing insole, use it as a template and cut the Snug Feet to shape. Why we like them 100% Herdwick sheep wool Warm and naturally insulating Breathable and moisture regulating Naturally odour resistant Soft and comfortable underfoot Trim-to-fit Made using waste felt from Chimney Sheep production Compostable at the end of their life A wonderfully simple way to make your barefoot shoes cosier for winter Available in two sizes: UK 4–8 and UK 9–12.
