Mahabis exists because somebody finally took the slipper seriously, treating it as a real design problem instead of an afterthought, and doing the work to fix it properly. Today, that means a full range of comfort footwear - indoor/ outdoor slippers, all-season shoes, breathable summer styles, and everything in between - all built with premium materials and designed to support you continuously from the first day to a year from now.Comfort, taken seriously.

Every mahabis style has its own job:- Classic: Indoor comfort, the founding proof that started it all. Home-based footwear can be as supportive, comfortable and durable as a normal shoe.- Curve: Built for messier, rougher days at home and in the garden.- Lite: Purposeful simplicity in the build, the minimalist lightweight slipper perfect for travel- Neo: The everyday, all-season shoe. Smart enough for anywhere, easy enough for every day.- Solar: Built to breathe through summer heat, without trading off support.- Dreamer Sandals: The fisherman sandal shape, rebuilt with genuine support and soft suede that moulds to the foot.- Meribel: The same discipline, applied to the coldest season.- Volare: A relaxed, easy-to-wear shoe build for enduring, everyday comfort.Each one solved something the rest of the footwear world has overlooked - no two mahabis styles are trying to do the same job.

Mahabis are designed in London, with production spanning our long-standing factory partner in Portugal and manufacturing partners in China (currently home to Volare, where we can produce the high-tech quality machine knits we need). All of our suppliers are Sedex-audited and comply with the Ethical Trading Initiative.

Choose your regular shoe size, as our fit is true to size. You can check out our sizing chart here. If you have wider feet or normally wear a half size, we’d recommend sizing up. If you’re between sizes, it can help to check the size of a pair of shoes you wear a lot and match to that. Sizing up shouldn’t affect the security of the fit, though this can vary between ranges. Where the fit may differ, we offer bespoke sizing advice on the product page.

We don’t currently offer separate wide or narrow fittings, but mahabis are designed to work well for both. Our materials adapt to the shape of your foot over time, giving a bit more room if you have wider feet, though they won’t stretch out if your feet are narrower. If you’re between sizes or unsure, sizing up is generally a safe bet, but check for specific sizing advice on our product pages. If you require specific support for your feet too, our insoles are removable, so you can slot in your own orthotics.

It depends on the style. Lite, Classic, Curve, and Neo can be machine washed on a cold, short cycle with a gentle detergent (30 degrees or lower). Just remove the insoles first (sponge-wash these separately, but avoid soaking) and leave everything to air dry. We wouldn’t recommend doing this often, but once in a while is fine.Solar and Volare should be hand-washed with a gentle detergent and left to air dry.Leather and shearling styles like Dreamer Sandals and Meribel should be hand-brushed (or brushed with a suede brush where relevant) and spot-cleaned by hand. Please don’t machine wash or soak these!Our slipper and sneaker cleaning kit works well across the whole range if you want a simple one-stop option.

This is ultimately a personal choice. If you want to wear socks with your mahabis, go ahead! The neoprene heel is designed to offer comfort with a relaxed grip and heel support, but it shouldn’t affect you if you’re wearing socks. We’d advise sizing up if you plan to wear your mahabis with thick socks, otherwise, just purchase your normal shoe size.
