There are sandals as plentiful as sand on the beach – some pretty, some practical, many uncomfortable after a few steps. Our answer: Merino Slides and Merino Slides Lite, two styles you slip on in the morning and forget about all day. The secret lies in a well‑considered combination of merino wool and cork, adapted for warm days. The result is an airy, gently cushioned feel that regulates moisture, stays fresh and adapts to you with every step. Plus adjustable straps you can fine‑tune per foot – because no one has two exactly identical feet.

 

Merino meets cork: fresh, airy, everyday‑ready

Merino wool in summer? Absolutely. The fibre lets air reach the skin, absorbs moisture, stays pleasantly odour‑neutral – perfect for going barefoot. So these slides take you effortlessly from the office to the farmers’ market and on to sundowners. The cork footbed provides light cushioning so each step feels more natural. Practical: on both styles, the straps can be finely adjusted so left and right truly fit perfectly. You’ll feel less friction, more support and a foot climate that stays comfortable even after hours – without the sticky feeling of classic summer sandals.

 

Slides or Slides Lite: two styles, one comfort promise

Urban or minimalist – both models follow the same principle: honest materials, clean lines and comfort that wins you over from the first step. Merino Slides feature two softly knitted, continuously adjustable straps with subtle metal detailing and a non‑slip sole that excels in the city. Merino Slides Lite come minimalist with a single wide strap, a generous toe box and an ultra‑comfortable cork footbed with a merino overlay. That way you’ll find exactly the look that suits your summer – with the reassurance that merino and cork stay fresh, light and reliable even on long days.

 

Merino Slides

Imagine slipping them on in the morning and forgetting about them all day: Merino Slides combine velvety merino‑cork comfort with two infinitely adjustable ajour‑knit straps and refined metal buckles. The cushioning cork footbed with exclusive 3D knit cradles your foot, while the ergonomic midsole offers gentle support. The black anti‑slip outsole ensures reliable grip on urban surfaces, while the knitted upper fabric made from 100% recycled polyester lends urban chic. For perfect foot climate and a tailored fit, adjust each strap individually per foot. Treat yourself to this summer upgrade – comfortable, stylish, considered.

Merino Slides Lite

If you like it minimalist, Merino Slides Lite are your go‑to: a wide, softly fitting ajour strap with adjustable pin buckle meets an ergonomic cork footbed cushioned with a gentle layer of merino fabric. The generous toe box gives room to move, supports natural roll‑through and noticeably relieves pressure. At the same time, the non‑slip sole keeps you steady on smooth floors. Your arch is ideally supported, muscles are activated and your walking posture is improved – noticeable with every step. Perfect for long days at home, quick errands and travel. Slip in, adjust, feel good.
