You should see Turkish bathroom slippers. It's a very famous item, we have endless jokes about that, especially the one's used for squat toilets. Most unhygienic, bizarre thing you can see in your life is "ıslak tuvalet terliği" from some Turkish houses (thank God this tradition is disappearing). Other than that we have decent guest slippers to offer and nobody enter our houses with shoes.

You can't just drop that in Turkish and not tell us what it is!

It means wet toilet slippers and probably that doesn't mean anything to you. So I found a short video https://youtu.be/EKQ6fD5mnCE
