About us
RALFY'S
Welcome to RALFY’S, home of the N1, the first shoe to fuse slipper-level comfort with sneaker style. One pair for every you: relaxed, adventurous, always on the go.
We’re more than footwear, we’re a reminder that comfort and confidence belong together. Believe in you, and bold steps follow.
Our Mission
We believe that when your feet are free and comfortable, you’re more confident to chase what matters. Our mission is to blend slipper‑like coziness, sneaker‑grade performance and planet‑minded materials into footwear that lets you believe in you every single step.
Our Story
RALFY’S started when our founder Ralf Schuering did not find a shoe that was as comfortable as a slipper but looked as good as a sneaker, despite selling more than 5 million pairs over his decade long career in selling footwear internationally.
With dozens of prototypes created, partnering with experts in the field and determining interest form potential distribution partners, RALFY'S was born in 2024.
In March 2025 we took the idea to Kickstarter. Thanks to 495 amazing backers from 44 countries, the campaign hit its funding goal within the first 7 hours and closed at 1076 % of target. That vote of confidence fuels everything we do today.
What makes RALFY'S N1 special
- Hands‑free Slip‑in – no laces, no bending, just step in and go.
- Easy‑Clean Design – rinse, wipe, repeat. Ready for the couch again in minutes.
- Sugarcane Cushioning – light, comfortable and with structural comfort fit
- Swappable Color Inserts – 4 shell colors × 7 insert colors = 28 fresh looks. Replace the insert, not the whole shoe.
- Minimalist Design - Wearable everywhere and always something to speak of.
Designed for the Planet
By choosing a professionally developed and tested product made from renewable sugarcane foams, recycled cotton mesh and a modular construction, every pair of RALFY’S N1 keeps material use low and extends product life. Better for your closet, better for the earth.
