FAQ

What are Barne products made from?

Barne Stockholm products are handcrafted from repurposed Kilim rugs. These vintage rugs often carry decades of history and artisan craftsmanship, which we preserve by transforming them into unique slippers, weekend bags and belts.

Can I wear Barne slippers outdoors?

Our slippers are primarily intended for indoor use. If you wish to wear them outdoors, we recommend adding an extra sole to protect them and extend their lifespan. Please note that they should not be worn in wet conditions.

Are all Barne products truly unique?

Yes. Each product is crafted from different sections of vintage Kilim rugs, meaning no two pieces are ever exactly the same. Every item has its own pattern and character.

Do you ship internationally? 

Yes, Barne Stockholm offers worldwide shipping! Delivery times vary depending on your location. Please be aware that shipments sent outside the EU may be subject to customs duties and import fees charged by your local customs office.

Where are Barne products made?

Our slippers are handmade in a small family-run workshop in central Istanbul by skilled artisans who specialize in traditional Kilim craftsmanship.

How do Barne slippers fit?

Barne slippers are true to EU sizing. Choose your normal size. Please note that the slippers can become roomier over time as they adjust to your feet.
