Snug LeavesMen's Faux Wool Slippers Comfy Warm Winter House Shoes with Elastic Gores

Pretty Much As Advertised
I read reviews for most any product I am considering buying. There are more expensive house "slippers" similar to this available but, for the reasonable price, these are a five-star product.The only concern I read here was the variety of people complaining about the sizing. Some say they run large while others say small. I don't buy shoes, (as a rule) online because of the concern for fit accuracy.I ordered 9-10. For all my adult life I wore 9.5 (in normal shoes) but as I aged my shoe size bumped up typically to a 10 in most shoe brands. Slippers, (I figured) you can wear a bit smaller because much of the time you won't be wearing socks, especially if the slippers are faux fur lined, (as these are.) My toes almost touch the end, touching the fur (which is probably 1/4 inch thick) at my big toe. They fit maybe a tad bit small in my opinion. If you're going to be wearing thick (warm socks too) I'd probably get the next size up, but you would be risking a looser fit and therefore you would not probably wear them sockless.I anticipate that there will be some stretching with time and the fur will pack down a bit over time. I was particularly interested in finding house "slippers" that would not slip on my heels when I walked. The heels come up far enough and fit well enough around the back of my feet (there's a bit of elastic on both sides just below my ankles.) that I'm confident that won't be an issue. They do need a finger in the heel to help them slip on.These are made (surprise) in China. The quality is acceptable, about what I expected and not over-priced. They have a thin, rubber (type) sole. I appreciated the variety of shoe color choices. The padding beneath the feet is sufficient and it extends the whole length of the shoe (toe-heel).Someone said something (in their review) about an "arch support." There's no discernable arch support. (I used to sell shoes and know what I'm talking about.) I would image this to be the case for any casual footwear designed for this purpose.They are soft (inside & out), comfortable and they are warm enough to meet my criteria. The "fur" surrounds your feet.

Great slippers!
These slippers are exactly what I needed. The inside soles have just the right amount of cushion and support. The inside "fur" is very comfortable with just the right thickness. Not too hot or cold. They don't have that squishy"floating gel" feel compared to other more expensive ones that I've tried on in a department store. The outer sole looks durable and the quality of the stiching is excellent. I also like that the sole as not as thick as many other slippers that look more like outdoor sneakers. The elastic on the sides keep them from falling off in the back as you walk. The backs have a nice comfortable rise so you can put your feet up even on a hard table ( as opposed to "clog"styles). The outer fabric has a nice wool look. I normally wear a size 8 shoe . I orded the 7-8 size and they fit very well. (just a bit tight with socks on but I would not go for a size 9-10 (which was the recommended size for me). Definitely a 5 star rating g on these.

Mostly Comfortable, but very thin sole
I've worn this brand and style of shoes for several years... this is my fifth pair in that time.Although I wear these exclusively inside as "house shoes", the soles definitely wear thin after a few months to about a year and a half before they simply must be replaced for daily wear.One thing I was a bit surprised about with this newest pair... although it's the exact same size as I've been buying for years, it feels thinner and less snug, as well as thinner soled than all the previous shoes I've had.In order to make them feel more sturdy and substantial, I added in a fasciitis insole to help stiffen and boost the sturdiness of the sole. Now, they do seem to support fairly well, although without an insole liner, they don't do so well.All in all, I love the shoes; I always have. They're super comfortable and this new blue color is just great fun! I just wish the shoes were a bit more sturdy and substantial, and would hold up a bit longer.Good shoe, and has potential... but hasn't quite hit the "great" mark just yet!

Comfortable and nice looking house shoes
Great pair of slippers I deal with edema at first thought they might be too tight for my swollen feet. Put them on didn’t take long wearing them that the slippers formed to my feet very comfortable now and easier to put on. For house shoes they are not just comfortable but they look good.

Perfect for us old guys with our feet changing
I remember my parents and grandparents wearing slippers. When in Japan i knew have clean socks because shoes were not allowed in their homes. Some did wear slippers in their homes ... But those slippers needed to be changed before going even to porch. Sadly, I'm still getting used to put them on, and off even one step outside.These are very comfortable with or without socks. I prefer to have socks to help slippers last. I wear DM and toe socks both do fine in the slippers.The bottom outside of the slippers are sturdy so don't feel anything that often make one hop. The inside memory foam is very helpful. As we age the bottom of our feet lose their padding. Reason sooner or later we notice our feet feel different, and our walk is getting unsteady even at home. Wearing these slippers im more confident and steady and they protect our toes from bumping into things.When people move away from wearing shoes due to work and into retirement and not wearing shoes as often due to staying at home we start noticing our feet miss shoes.That last problem (s) probably is the same for remote workers who stay at home with kids and Legos.The fake furr does help comfort when without socks ... and different colors help with who's slippers are whos.Well worth the cost but remember clean dry socks help slippers last longer. Plus you are at home so no excuse in that sock rule.
