UNCUT Slippers: Instant DIY Footwear

UNCUT Slippers: Instant DIY Footwear

By Dan Gould on March 5, 2009

Though they may not win style points, the idea behind the UNCUT Slippers is admirable. Designer Ernest Perera created the product, which is nothing more than a sheet of felt with a printed pattern of a slipper. Simply cut out the shapes, fold it over, and you have a simple pair of shoes. Die-lines are included for EU sizes 30-46, and a strip of Velcro is used to fasten them to your feet.  And since the felt is made of all natural materials, you can throw away the scraps into a compost pile.
