Shweshwe fabric is an intricately patterned design, used in traditional South African clothing. Our Shweshwe Slippers combine this stunning fabric design with traditional beadwork. Made from padded cotton fabric, a beaded feature and vinyl soles - designs vary slightly. These comfy slippers are made in South Africa by a women's cooperative. Using hands to 'create, care and share' is the ethos behind this amazing organisation and their products.
Sized to suit 7-8 (27.5cm x 11.5cm).
