Bunny slippers are a cultural phenomenon, first appealing to children and now worn by a number of adults. The hallmark of indoor slippers are that they feature a representation of a rabbit. The wholesale slippers may cover the whole foot, providing comfy warmth, or may be a slide slipper, where the front top of the foot has a bunny face and usually, bunny ears.
Numerous companies have capitalized on animal shoes by producing a variety of animal slippers. The Disney company began making character head slippers as early as the 1980s. These often covered the whole foot, featured some padding, and a slip-proof surface on the sole. Any character could be represented, such as Mickey or Minnie Mouse®, Donald Duck® or any other Disney character. In fact when a new Disney movie comes out, many retailers will feature animal or character head slippers from that particular film.
