Wool & Hemp Shoe & Boot Insoles

Warm in Winter • Cool in Summer • Moisture‑Absorbing • Naturally Antimicrobial

Warm, dry feet are happy feet. Our Wool & Hemp Insoles are handcrafted in Duncan, BC, using a soft hemp lining secured to sheep wool fabric with eco‑friendly adhesive. The result is a luxuriously plush, breathable insole that fits snugly into any footwear and provides year‑round comfort.

Wool’s natural loft cushions the foot, absorbs moisture, regulates temperature, and resists bacteria, mold, and fungus, keeping your feet fresh, dry, and supported all day long. Hemp adds durability, breathability, and antimicrobial strength, making this one of the healthiest natural‑fiber insoles available.

Wool also provides gentle nervous‑system soothing, reducing foot tension and supporting comfort during long days on your feet.

Grounding / Earthing Benefits

Sheepskin and sheep wool footwear help bring a healthy balance to your magnetic field, supporting grounding, nervous‑system calm, and overall well‑being.

What is sheep wool fabric?

Our fabric is made from 100% shorn sheep wool, knitted into a nylon grid for strength and shape retention, then stabilized with a medical‑grade acrylic compound for washability. This ensures the body lies on pure wool fibre — not hide — while meeting IPAC guidelines.

Why a nylon grid?

• Prevents fraying
• Maintains shape better than cotton or wool alone
• Similar to nylon reinforcement in wool socks
• Renewable and sustainable

Why an acrylic stabilizer?

• Developed in Germany for high‑standard washability
• Used safely for decades with no reported allergies
• Allows full machine washability to 70°C
• Ensures long‑term durability

How does wool help with pressure injuries?

Wool distributes weight evenly, reduces pressure points, and stabilizes temperature — key factors in preventing ulcers and supporting healing.

Is wool good for night sweats?

Yes. Wool absorbs moisture without feeling wet and releases it into the air, keeping sleepers dry — especially helpful for menopausal night sweats.

Is this the same as sheepskin?

No.

• Sheepskin = hide + wool attached
• Sheep wool fabric = shorn wool fibre knitted into a backing
  Our products use sheep wool fabric, making them washable, breathable, and humane.

Wool is one of nature’s most advanced performance fibres, breathable, durable, and exceptionally comfortable. It creates a stable, balanced sleep environment that works for all types of sleepers, all year round.

Temperature Regulation

Wool naturally keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. It adapts to your body temperature, making it ideal for hot sleepers, cold sleepers, and couples with different comfort needs.

Moisture Management

Wool absorbs 30–40% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp. It pulls humidity away from the skin and releases it into the air, keeping bedding dry, fresh, and comfortable through the night.

Naturally Clean

Wool is naturally antimicrobial and antibacterial. It resists odour, mildew, and bacteria, staying fresher longer and requiring less washing than synthetic bedding.

Pressure‑Soft Comfort

Wool fibres gently cushion the body, reducing pressure points and helping muscles relax. This creates a softer, more forgiving sleep surface that supports deeper rest.

Breathable & Non‑Clammy

Unlike foam or polyester, wool never traps heat or moisture. It stays breathable and comfortable, preventing the “hot and sticky” feeling common with synthetic bedding.

Renewable & Sustainable

Wool is a renewable fibre shorn from sheep annually. It’s biodegradable, long‑lasting, and produced with far less environmental impact than synthetic materials.

Humane Alternative to Sheepskin

Our products use sheep wool fabric, not sheepskin.

• Sheepskin = hide + wool
• Sheep wool fabric = shorn wool fibre knitted into a backing

This makes our products washable, breathable, and humane, the sheep keep their hide, and the wool grows back naturally.
