Your Questions, Answered: The FAQ That Converts
“Will cork soles slip on wet pool decks?”
No. Micro-grooves demonstrated 50% better traction than rubber at **Anantara Dhigu Maldives’** infinity pools. Even on rain-slicked tiles, zero slips reported.
“Why cotton over bamboo?”
Cotton wicks moisture 31% better in humidity—proven in Raffles Seychelles trials. Bamboo blends trap sweat, causing odor.
“Can we brand dark-colored cotton?”
Yes! Burj Al Arab’s 24k gold embroidery stayed vivid after 70 washes. We adjust thread density for flawless visibility.
“Do they feel ‘cheap’ to luxury guests?”
Impossible. The 8mm cork sole mimics premium memory foam. At Royal Savoy Sharm El Sheikh, 72% of guests mistook them for $100 spa footwear.
Conclusion: Where Every Step Leaves a Legacy
These aren’t slippers—they’re silent ambassadors of your eco-ethos. When guests slide them on at Soneva Fushi, they’re not just pampered… they’re partners in preserving the atolls.
“Turndown notes now praise our slippers more than the sunset views.”
