Stepping into the Tara slipper-sandal from Daniel Green is a truly luxurious experience. Its plush fabric upper is indescribably soft, and, with its thick padding and rubber outsole, you'll feel like you're walking on air. Tara couldn't get any more comfortable--oops--we were wrong. Its open toe and adjustable Velcro closure also increase its coziness.
In 1881 Daniel Green, a young traveling shoe salesman for the Wallace Elliott Company in New York City, visited Dolgeville, New York. Daniel was shown a pair of felt shoes fashioned from waste pieces of piano felt which had been made in the Dolgeville Felt Mill. Daniel Green noticed that these felt shoes were worn by many factory workers to keep their feet warm and comfortable on the cold factory stone floors, and thus a legend in footwear was born.
