How to Wash Cotton Slippers Without Damaging Them

When I joined Lesijia Shoes, I quickly realized that many customers loved our cotton slippers for their comfort but weren’t quite sure how to clean them properly. Washing slippers might sound simple, but if not done right, they can lose shape, softness, or even start smelling. So, let me share some insider tips from our factory experience on how to wash your slippers the right way — keeping them fresh, fluffy, and long-lasting.

Why Do Cotton Slippers Need Regular Cleaning

Cotton fabric naturally absorbs sweat and moisture, which can lead to odor or bacteria buildup if not cleaned. Regular washing not only keeps them hygienic but also maintains the breathable comfort that cotton slippers are known for.

Here’s a quick breakdown of why washing matters:

Can Cotton Slippers Be Washed in a Machine

Yes, they can — but only if done correctly. From our experience at Lesijia Shoes, the key is gentle care. Always check the inner tag before washing. If machine washable, follow these steps:

Steps for Machine Washing:

1. Place slippers inside a mesh laundry bag to protect their structure.

2. Use a mild detergent and select the “gentle” or “delicate” cycle.

3. Wash in cold or lukewarm water (below 30°C).

4. Skip bleach and fabric softeners—they weaken cotton fibers.

5. Air dry only. Avoid direct sunlight or dryers, as heat may deform the soles.

How to Hand Wash Cotton Slippers More Gently

If your slippers have foam soles or embroidery, hand washing is safer. Here’s how we do it in our product testing lab:

Hand Washing Steps:

1. Fill a basin with warm water and mild detergent.

2. Gently scrub using a soft brush or cloth.

3. Focus on the inside lining where sweat accumulates.

4. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.

5. Press gently with a towel to absorb moisture, then air dry.

Pro Tip: Add a spoon of baking soda to remove stubborn odors naturally.

How Can You Keep Cotton Slippers Fresh for Longer

Maintaining your slippers between washes is just as important. Here’s what we recommend to customers who buy from Lesijia Shoes:
