Those felt slippers in the bottom picture, would you call those "huopatossut"?

 

[monkey boy]

I want to go, where and when is it?

 

[TROOPER]

The stuff that bushcrafters dreams are made of, spent time in Finland a few years back a wicked country makes me want to visit again SOON!

Yes, you can call them "huopatossut". The more archaic name for ankle high wool felt liners in Finnish is "teräkkäät".

I want to go, where and when is it?

Every year during December in Helsinki. This year the market is running from 7 to 22 December at Senate Square. Some of products seen on the photographs are available year around at the Market Square or from one of the market halls.

Dear Santa, can I shop for free for one day in a Finnish bushcraft market?

 

[dwardo]

Now that's what I call shopping!

Thank you!

They look just the kind of thing I could wear inside my clogs, in place of the thin leather slippers I have at the moment.

I found some on the web in my size... at €38 a pair, though.
