History of Islander Slippers

Founded in 1985 by KP Yao, is a beloved footwear brand known for its durable and affordable slippers. Initially produced by Rubberworld Phils. Inc. in Quezon City, the brand is now distributed by Zenco Sales Inc., managed by Yao’s children. Islander's signature design, the 1020 series, features a thick molded sole and contoured insole for a perfect fit, making it an instant classic.
Did you know? If you wore Islander's iconic 1020 series as a kid, you were considered one of the coolest around. These slippers were not just footwear but a symbol of style and comfort.
Despite challenges posed by the pandemic, Islander remains operational and continues to embody Filipino culture and values. While only the Cebu factory outlet is closing, Islander products are still widely available online and in stores nationwide.
Growing up, many Filipinos have fond memories of their Islander slippers. Whether it was playing tumbang preso in the streets or feeling like the coolest kid in town, Islander has been a part of countless childhoods. The brand’s commitment to quality and affordability ensures it remains a staple in Filipino households. Owning a pair of Islander slippers was, and still is, a mark of coolness and comfort.
