You'll be glad you bought these!, May 3, 2005
This review is from: Dearfoams Women's Microfiber Terry Closed-Toe Scuff Slipper (Apparel)
I've worn the Dearfoams brand of houseshoes for years. They've always been attractive and comfortable. I bought this pair in pink, and they're even more comfortable than the booties I normally buy.
The microfiber terry is so soft, it's better than being barefoot. The cushioning is deep and the outersole is flexible, yet sturdy. I thought the v-shaped notch was a gimmick, but once I tried the shoes on I realized it made them a lot more comfortable than any other slippers I've worn in the past. I have a high arch, and the slipper doesn't squeeze the top of my foot.
I normally wear a size 8 (sometimes 7 1/2) and the large size fits me fine. It's not too loose and I'm not tripping in them, as I have with other brands of houseshoes. However, they do seem to have enough length for someone who is a size 9. I haven't washed these yet, but they are machine washable. I've always machine washed and dried my other Dearfoams, and never had a problem with them shrinking or fading.
Although Dearfoams are made in China now, the only difference I think I've noticed is that the foam cushioning doesn't hold up as well as it used to. It starts out close to an inch thick and pancakes down pretty quickly as you wear them. At least that's been that way in the booties - these slippers feel sturdier.
For less than 12 bucks you can't go wrong with these. I like to be comfortable, so I plan on buying an extra pair or two in case these get discontinued. For this price, I might even start my Christmas shopping in May!

Cooshy Comfort!, June 28, 2005
This review is from: Dearfoams Women's Microfiber Terry Closed-Toe Scuff Slipper (Apparel)
I borrowed a pair of these from my sister(who has several pairs in different colors), they felt so good I took them home, I've had them over a year and they are still in great shape, I now want a pink pair! Good deal and fits nice on your feet.

Still got um!!!, January 9, 2007
I purchased these slippers and a robe last year to take on a vacation. The robe didn't last long, (CHEAP,CHEAP,CHEAP!), but the slippers are still here. I have really cold feet and wear slippers all year long, and these are more or less my "warmer weather" slippers. I have washed them several times, and they wash up beautifully. No wear or tear, and the traction is still good.
