3 Reasons Everyone in the Family Wants Grandma's Slippers

Summary:
Every family has one thing everybody borrows from Grandma.

This winter, it’s her slippers.

Her old pairs ended up under the kitchen table. This pair went home with her granddaughter after Sunday dinner.

Three reasons the New York Slipper keeps leaving her house, starting with the second strap.

  1. The New York Slipper in Coffee, side view, both straps holding the foot

    The second strap is the whole trick

    Most slippers have one band over the toes and nothing over the middle of the foot. So the heel lifts, the slipper slaps, and it ends up under a chair.

    This one has a second strap over the instep, the way a sandal does. It holds the foot instead of floating around it.

    Kitchen, couch, front door, in the same pair.

  2. Grandma stepping into The New York Slipper in Coffee in her kitchen

    No heel to pull up

    No laces, no back to tug on, no bending over at the door.

    She steps in, and she’s done.

    Her granddaughter does the same thing on her way out.

  3. Two pairs of The New York Slipper side by side, Coffee for Grandma and Cream for her granddaughter

    Right now, one for her and one for you

    Buy one pair and the second is free. One for Grandma, one for whoever keeps borrowing hers.

    Cream, Coffee, Gray or Black, in women’s and men’s sizes. Mix colors and sizes as you like.

    Sizes come in pairs, 5–6 through 11–12. Take the pair her usual size falls in. Between two, take the larger.

    The free pair won’t be there forever.
