Hi,
Give your little one the kind of cozy an elephant would never forget with these charming booties, made from eco-friendly felted wool by Kyrgyz artisans.
Handcrafted in small batches, these booties are made from natural wool, which is dyed, spun and felted, before being cut and stitched into adorable elephant details.
These are part of our Continental Collection, featuring sweet, handcrafted animal booties representing each continent. Handmade in Kyrgyzstan.
Not intended for sleepwear.
Due to the handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.
Made in Kyrgyzstan
created by
location
When Kyrgyzstan became an independent country in 1991, most of the nation's talented artists fled to larger and more creative cities. But maker Gulnara Kydyrmyshova stayed behind and established a small retail store with the vision to revive Kyrgyz craftsmanship and help relieve her nation of poverty through the trade of handmade felted works. She started by conducting free sewing classes to unemployed women in her community. For over a decade, she has supported local artisans by selling felted handicrafts in her store.
Read more about about Gulnara's work (and see some stunning photos of Kyrgyzstan) on our blog.

I bought these a Christmas gift for my new born granddaughter. Her parents loved them and we all loved the handmade look. When she grows into them I'm sure she'll love them too.

Comments about UncommonGoods Elephant Booties:
It is a baby shower gift to go with little peanut elephant motif. I know the new mother will live this. The detail on the booties is perfect and they're as soft and comfy as can be.
Comments about UncommonGoods Elephant Booties:
We bought these for a friend that takes care of our boys (two semi-behaved Great Danes!)...she is expecting and we truly love her and all she does for our little family. As animals lovers, we thought these we perfect to give her and their new bundle of joy from "the boys" (because really? If they could buy her something they would!!)
I think she loved them and I'm sure anything from uncommon goods is just that...uncommon! I love giving gifts that are unique and thoughtful so I always start here!
