Choose the beauty of freedom!
In 2001 Benedetto Battaglini had the idea of exploiting the shape of the heel to lock it without the need for straps, and made a prototype of summer sandal with the back of the foot free. In the following years unfortunately his project did not find interest among the most important companies in the footwear sector, so in 2015, after numerous attempts and thanks to the support of his son Federico, he decides not to give up and to produce his own sandals.
After 2 years of design and study, thanks also to the collaboration with the Maresca factory, finally in 2017 the first one-piece rubber sandal (patented) that retains the heel without the use of bands or straps, sees the light. In the same year, father and son founded Blipers Srl, owner of the patents and trademark Blipers, in the meantime it was registered in Italy and in many other countries. In 2020, Blipers also launched the flip-flop model, with the same heel-locking feature.
Today there are 2 models of Blipers, strictly made in Italy: the sandal and the flip-flop. Unisex sandals from number 35 to 46, made of soft thermoplastic rubber, hypoallergenic, non-toxic, PVC and phthalate free, 100% recyclable. The soles and insoles of both models are made with non-slip texture.
Thanks to the band that embraces the heel softly from behind and their revolutionary ergonomics, the Blipers can be worn in a moment standing, and they no longer slide off. They can be used at the sea, in the pool, in the gym, for walking and cycling, they are suitable for driving the car as they block the heel avoiding dangerous accidents, they float in the sea. Blipers are very light, available in many fun colours, machine washable and recyclable at 100%.
Wearing them you have the feeling of walking barefoot, feeling the lightness and especially avoiding that annoying slippery, typical of all slippers and flip-flops.
The goal has always been to create a product to revolutionize the world of footwear, combining design, comfort, innovation, fashion and sustainability. Blipers are for sale in numerous stores in Italy and Europe (easily foundable in the store locator), as well as direct-to- consumer sales through the online shop blipers.it.
Lastly, there is great news: Blipers brings you two new collections for the 2023 summer season. These are the Fluo color collection, in the three variants fluo yellow, fluo green and fluo pink (designed for those who do not want to go unnoticed) and the new Kids collection, which best represents the usefulness and comfort of the Blipers patent, allowing the little ones to wear the footwear independently, with a simple movement of the foot, and ensuring maximum stability and safety in any movement. Kids collection is available in 3 double sizes 29/30, 31/32 and 33/34 And they are also machine washable. Make it easy with Blipers!
