British Handmade Sahara Sheepskin Moccasins
£49.50 – £54.50
Our Sahara Moccasin has been made here in Somerset overlooking the historic Glastonbury Tor for many years. One of our most popular styles, for all ages and genders, we now offer in a PVC firm sole or a pure suede soft sole option. Each pair of these gorgeous slippers are handmade from luxurious British sheepskin and Scottish suede. This classic moccasin has an adjustable tie lace, scalloped collar and what they call in our industry a “pie-crust” finish around the toes where it is stitched. We have a PVC sole with a light tread, which is lightweight, durable and thick enough to give the bottom of the slippers some protection from stone/rough floors. We craft each pair by hand, employing local crafts people in this traditional industry.
You may be wondering what the difference is between our Traditional Moccasin and this Sahara Moccasin, the difference is the specific type of sheepskin used. In this moccasin we use pure sheepskin with an extra layer of suede on the outside. This helps them keep their shape and makes them stronger, along with the added luxury of the beautiful sheepskin inside. The Traditional Moccasin are whole fleece, without any extra suede, which means they are softer yet more susceptible to damage if the sizing is not absolutely perfect.
These Moccasins are designed to be a snug fit, which means they tend to run on the smaller side, the pattern is suited to those with narrow and standard fit width, not wide fitting. We find most customers tend to order up a size for ease, as the majority wish to wear socks, or prefer some wiggle room at the toes – also relevant if you have a broader foot. Alternatively, if you like the barefoot feel, go ahead and order your normal size.
Currently available in sizes 5-13 with a slim firm sole or soft sole.
A perfect combination of luxury, style and warmth with the added bonus of being 100% British made, right here in Somerset.
The firm sole option has a 6 millimetre sole, approximately.

Probably the most comfortable and well fitting Moccasins I have ever worn in 40 years! The lining is just the right density so you can wear them with or without socks. They come up the heel the right height so they don’t flop. The firm sole is perfect For hard floors around the house and definitely non slip! Only small downside is that that sole is a little noisy. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

I would just like to share my absolute joy of my Sahara moccasins sheepskin slippers, they are so cosy , warm and super comfy. I ordered a pair for my husband and myself at 10.30 on Sunday evening and they were on my feet at 11 am on Wednesday, perfect.
I will be ordering a pair of slipper boots for my daughters birthday in March.
Many thanks

I ordered a pair of these for my wife. I had ordered a pair of the ‘Somerset’ slippers for myself (which are also excellent by the way – see my review). My wife’s slippers arrived but were a bit too big for her, so Georgie arranged a very fast turnaround for a size smaller, which fit like a very comfortable ‘glove’. Perfect customer service and good quality slippers.
My wife is pleased that her feet are warm and comfortable.
