About us

Barne Stockholm was founded in August 2024 in Stockholm. 

Each pair of our Barne slippers is carefully handmade in a workshop in central Istanbul, using repurposed Kilim rugs. These rugs often carry decades of history and craftsmanship but may have become worn, faded or damaged along the edges, making them no longer suitable as carpets. By reimagining them as slippers, we give these beautiful materials new life. 

No pairs are alike, as each slipper is cut from a different part of the rug, meaning you get a truly one of a kind piece. Whether you are dressed in a pajamas or a smoking, Barne slippers are always the perfect choice. 

Our slippers are primarily designed to be used indoors! While the slippers are intended for indoor use, we recommend adding a sole for extra protection and durability if you wish to wear them outdoors.

Our slippers are EU true to size, and we recommend choosing your usual size. Keep in mind that with wear, our Barne slippers will adapt to your feet, offering a bit more space over time.

Barne has also been featured in several publications, such as Plaza Uomo and Lohi Journal.
