The UGG Tasman II Slipper is a versatile footwear option designed for kids, functioning as both a cozy slipper for indoor comfort and a durable shoe for light outdoor use. Its key win lies in combining the plush warmth of upcycled wool with the robust grip of a Treadlite outsole, making it ideal for active children.

The UGG Tasman II Slipper excels in providing comfort and practicality for everyday wear. Indoors, the 17 mm upcycled wool lining cocoons feet in warmth and softness, making it an ideal choice for lounging or playing. The slip-on design allows for easy on and off, perfect for busy mornings or winding down evenings.
Outdoors, the Treadlite outsole truly shines. Its lightweight composition and sunburst-pattern traction ensure reliable grip, whether navigating backyard adventures or making quick trips to the letterbox. The suede upper, while stylish, means these aren't designed for heavy rain or muddy conditions; they are best suited for dry weather. For example, a child can comfortably wear them to school drop-off or for a short walk to the park without needing to change shoes. The UGG Tasman braid adds a distinctive touch, making them fashionable enough to be seen as more than just slippers. Keep in mind that sustained outdoor use on rough terrain may lead to quicker wear on the suede.

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Tasman II Slippers:
Suede Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, treat the suede upper with a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede.
Cleaning Suede: For light marks, use a suede brush to gently rub away dirt. For deeper stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
Cleaning Wool Lining: Gently clean the wool lining with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild wool cleaner, if necessary. Allow to air dry completely, away from direct heat.
Drying: If wet, stuff the slippers with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the suede and wool.
Storage: Store your slippers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
