The Story of Our Kilim Mule Slippers for Kids

At Bath & Pajama, we believe that every product we create tells a unique story, and our Kilim Mule Slippers for kids are no exception. These delightful mule style slippers blend the rich artistry of Moroccan tradition with contemporary comfort, making them the perfect house slippers for children. Handcrafted in the vibrant medina of Marrakech, each pair is a one-of-a-kind treasure, adding a touch of cultural heritage to your child's bedtime routine.

Discovering Kilim Rugs: A Journey Through Marrakech Medina

The journey of our Kilim Mule Slippers begins in the bustling souks of the Marrakech medina, a colorful and lively marketplace teeming with artisans and vibrant textiles. Here, we hand-select each kilim rug, known for its vibrant patterns and deep historical significance. Made by talented artisans from the Atlas Mountains, these rugs embody the spirit of Moroccan culture and craftsmanship.

Shopping for the perfect kilim is not just an errand; it's an adventure filled with excitement and discovery. We seek out rugs that are not only visually stunning but also durable enough to be transformed into the perfect kids slippers. The playful and colorful designs we choose reflect the lively personalities of the little ones who will wear them, turning each pair into a cherished piece of art.

Our friends in Marrakech were invaluable in their help navigating the Medina and helping us translate. 

Crafting the Slippers: Collaboration with La Maison des Babouches

After selecting the finest kilim rugs, we collaborate with our talented partners at La Maison des Babouches, a family-run workshop in Marrakech renowned for its traditional Moroccan footwear. Here, skilled artisans expertly cut and shape the rugs into our beloved Kilim Mule Slippers, made specifically for children.

At La Maison des Babouches,  the slippers are handmade with care, blending centuries-old techniques with thoughtful modern design. The kilim upper of each slipper is meticulously sewn by artisans who have perfected their skills over generations. This level of attention to detail ensures that every pair of slippers is not just footwear, but a unique expression of artistry, with no two patterns ever alike.

The Ideal Combination: Rubber Sole and Soft Suede Lining

Comfort is paramount when it comes to children's footwear, and our Kilim Mule Slippers are designed with this in mind. Featuring a flexible rubber sole, these slippers provide durability and grip, making them ideal for indoor wear. Whether your child is dashing around the house or winding down for the night, these slippers offer the perfect blend of support and softness.

Inside, the slippers are lined with luxuriously soft suede, providing a gentle touch against little feet. This suede interior not only enhances comfort but also keeps toes warm and cozy—making them perfect for those chilly evenings or lazy days spent lounging around the house.
