More Information

The Street Slipper ® is a new concept to add to the Bowhill & Elliott story. With the Albert slipper steeped in history, starting life as a house shoe before becoming the must have choice of footwear for parties and evening wear, we have seen this timeless classic evolve once again. With demand for our slippers to be worn as day loafers we introduced the rubber sole for durability. Suede uppers and leather lining make for a more conventional whole cut loafer, or request any of our velvet options to be made as a Street Slipper ® with a rubber sole for the more daring.

Our Olive Suede Venetian Slippers are a made to order style, so please expect six weeks for delivery. Any customised styles are not eligible for refund.  

ALL ABOUT THE 2002
The 2002 is a contemporary mid-height round tongue, paying homage to the flamboyant masquerade balls of 16th Century Venice. The 2002 features a wider opening at the throat to allow for a flat suede or knock-over leather binding, suitable for both the P or K last. With suede uppers and a leather lining, the 2002 is an ideal slipper with a rubber sole, that is equally appropriate at home or outside as a day loafer. All our patterns are clicked by hand before embarking on their journey around the workshop being handmade into our new Street Slippers ® with rubber soles.
