Quad ESQ Barefoot Slipper

We’re pretty convinced there’s something in the water that fuels Maine’s obsession with traditional, handcrafted footwear—the state is legendary for its family-owned and operated workshops, crafting some of the world’s finest heritage shoes. The renowned makers over at Quoddy are a prime example. With four generations’ worth of expertise and a touch of old-world refinement, they’ve built out a small-batch line of boots and moccasins designed to last a lifetime. They take their craft so seriously, in fact, that only about one in ten craftsmen make it through the training program to become full-fledged Quoddy shoemakers. From there, they’re painstakingly building footwear the old fashioned way—using a needle and thread plus a few basic tools on top-notch components like Horween leather, rust-proof hardware, and durable Vibram outsoles. It’s classic Maine craftsmanship through-and-through. And like traditional moccasins, they perfectly conform to your feet over time. Just run a pair of Quoddys by an experienced cobbler and they’ll tell you what Mainers already know—they’re among the finest casual shoes made in America today.

**Handsewn shearling slipper boots** Inspired by Quoddy’s original slipper boots designed for New England students in chilly dorms, these Quad ESQ Barefoot Slippers boast a few modern upgrades—most notably, a uniquely engineered EXERSOLE® platform that provides a coveted barefoot feel with every step. Even better, their twinface sheepskin design creates a level of insulation that actually going barefoot could never offer, and durable rubber outsoles allow you to test that warmth outdoors if you want to brave the cold without swapping out your footwear.
