Tossuja

Tossuja is a Finnish term that generally refers to slippers or house shoes. These are footwear designed to be worn indoors for comfort and warmth. The design and materials of tossuja can vary widely, from simple fabric booties to more structured, slipper-like shoes with rubber soles. They are a common item in Finnish households, particularly during the colder months, to protect feet from chilly floors and provide a cozy feeling. The word itself is informal and commonly used in everyday conversation. While "tossuja" specifically denotes slippers, it can sometimes be used more broadly to refer to any soft, casual indoor footwear. The emphasis is on comfort and ease of wear within the home environment. Many Finnish footwear manufacturers produce various styles of tossuja, catering to different preferences for warmth, support, and aesthetic.
