Trend-forward comfort slipper with clinically grounded support.

Zurich brings elevated lounge styling to everyday comfort. Designed with a modern, on-trend silhouette, this refined slipper combines premium materials, cozy warmth, and Strive’s signature biomechanical support for effortless wear at home and beyond.
Crafted with a rich cow suede upper and soft wool blend lining, Zurich wraps the foot in breathable warmth while maintaining a polished, contemporary look. The plush wool blend footbed enhances underfoot softness, creating a cozy yet supportive feel with every step.
At its core is a removable dual-density EVA and memory foam footbed, engineered to deliver the perfect balance of cushioning and structure. Memory foam absorbs impact and cradles pressure points, while firmer EVA support promotes natural alignment and stability. Built on Strive’s proprietary Biomechanical Footbed Technology™, Zurich helps support posture from the ground up far beyond the flat construction of traditional slippers. Finished with a lightweight blown rubber outsole for flexibility and durability, Zurich transitions effortlessly from indoor comfort to casual everyday wear.

WHY STRIVE IS DIFFERENT

Your feet aren't 2-dimensional, so why wear footwear with a flat footbed?

Utilising our extensive knowledge and experience, all Strive footwear incorporates our podiatrist designed 'Biomechanical Footbed Technology', which re-designs a classic flat footbed to the natural 3-dimensional contours of your feet.

HOW THIS BENEFITS YOU

Comfort as nature intended - By this we mean comfort that is not artificially created with excessive cushioning. Instead, created through supporting your feet in the very position they are designed to be held in.

Helps improve posture and reduce harmful stresses - Mapping the unique contours of your feet, our orthotic footbed technology may help to improve posture and reduce harmful stresses placed upon your feet and body - a contributing factor associated with many common aches and pains:

Strive Footwear can help with:

  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Ball of foot pain
  • Heel pain
  • Knee pain
  • Lower back pain

Care Guide

To clean classic leathers, wipe gently with a damp cloth and leave to dry fully out of direct sunlight.

For nubuck and suede leathers, wipe entirely so there is an even damp surface.

We DO NOT recommend using any solvents.

Keep out of extreme temperatures.

Sizing/Wearing

Strive designs its sandals with a wide toe box to mimic the natural shape of a human foot, allowing your toes to spread out freely. This design improves balance, evenly distributes your weight, and prevents toe cramping and issues caused by narrow, fashionable footwear.

Here is exactly how the design benefits your foot health:

  • Natural Toe Splay: Unlike tapered sandal shapes that compress the forefoot, Strive's ergonomic design allows the toes to spread and flex naturally as you walk, supporting more natural movement and improved comfort.
  • Reduced Friction & Pressure: The spacious forefoot area helps minimise rubbing and overcrowding, reducing discomfort associated with pressure points, blisters, bunions, and calluses.
  • Biomechanical Support: The wide toe shape works alongside Strive's patented dual-density orthotic footbed — engineered to mirror the foot's natural pressure points — to promote alignment, stability, and a smoother walking motion.

All our sandals and slippers are generous in size.

WEARING GUIDE

The unique contours of our Biomechanical Footbed TechnologyTM work to support your feet in their natural position so it may feel 'different'.

We recommend wearing the footwear for one hour on the first day

Zurich FAQs

How should I choose my Zurich slipper size?
Measure both feet and use the longer measurement when checking the women’s US size guide. Measure around the widest part of each foot to check the width. If your measurement falls between sizes, choose the larger size for the best fit.
Do Zurich slippers have built-in arch support?
Yes. Zurich features Strive’s podiatrist-designed Biomechanical Footbed Technology™, including contoured arch support, a deep heel cup and metatarsal cushioning.
Does Zurich Felt have a removable footbed?
Yes. The supportive footbed can be removed to accommodate your own insoles or custom orthotics.
Can Zurich slippers be worn outside?
The durable rubber outsole makes Zurich suitable for light outdoor use, such as stepping onto the porch. The fleece upper is not designed for wet weather.
