sheep fur recycled fashion

We have sheep fur scratches from factories. We recycle them to create our unique fur flip flops. Each fur is coming with different color shades and shape. 

ethical fashion- recycled sheep fur scraps

We think that this is innovative way to repurpose sheep fur scratches from factories. It's great that we are taking a sustainable approach to fashion by recycling materials that would otherwise go to waste.

Using the unique colors and shapes of the fur to create one-of-a-kind flip flops adds to the uniqueness and appeal of our product. It's important to communicate the sustainable and ethical nature of our product to our customers, as it can help build brand loyalty and attract environmentally-conscious consumers.

It's also worth considering the ethical implications of using animal fur in our products. Make sure that the fur we are using is sourced from ethical and sustainable sources, and that we are transparent about our sourcing practices with our customers.

Our sheep fur collection

Sewing fur can indeed be challenging due to its thickness and texture. Here are some tips that might help if you sew fur materials with sewing machine:

  1. Use a heavy-duty sewing machine: A sewing machine with a strong motor and heavy-duty needles can help you sew through the thick layers of fur more easily.

  2. Use the right type of needle: Use a sharp, sturdy needle designed for sewing through heavy fabrics like denim or leather. A size 16 or 18 needle is recommended for fur.

  3. Pin the fur before sewing: Use strong pins to hold the fur in place before sewing. This will help prevent the fur from slipping and moving around while you sew.

  4. Sew slowly and carefully: Take your time when sewing and go slowly to ensure that the stitches are even and the fur stays in place. Use the handwheel to move the needle manually if necessary.

  5. Use a walking foot: A walking foot can help feed the layers of fur evenly through the machine, reducing the risk of puckering or uneven stitches.

Remember to test your stitching on a scrap piece of fur before sewing on your actual project to get a feel for the material and ensure that your settings and techniques are working correctly.

sandals and shoe bags for packaging process by shoes brand

This is how I package the sandals before shipping them out. Make sure every pair is coming with complimentary waterproof jute shoes bag, Hang tag says this is made in NYC product and it is a genuine product. Additionally my personal hand written message to each customer.

 

Providing a complimentary waterproof jute shoes bag is a great way to protect the sandals during shipping and ensure that they arrive in excellent condition. Also this is a perfect bag for pool day or beach day and put your camera, phone or swim wear.

 

We think that including a hang tag with information about the product and where it was made can add a personal touch and help build trust with customers. And adding a personal hand-written message to each customer is a wonderful way to show that we care and appreciate their business. 

Today's order is shipping out to Texas. I hope they will enjoy these special made sandals over there.
