I've had a hell of a time finding slippers because it seems that they only sell them in stores at Christmas time.

Unable to buy them in person - I decided to take the risk of buying them comfort unfelt and fit unknown.

I'm very glad I did - as these slippers are great, and fit perfectly (I went a half size up just to be sure - too big being preferable to not big enough). Very comfortable and warm, and unlike most new slippers they didn't make my feet all sweaty at first until they were broken in. They have a nice thick sole with good traction making them great all-terrain slippers for getting the mail or chasing the cat.

Very happy with them.

After almost 3 years I just recieved my second pair of these slippers for Christmas. I hated to get rid of the first pair - as they've held up just great. The ONLY reason I asked for a new pair is that after 3 years the padding inside the slipper had worn away - the stitching, suede and sole remain in great shape after 3 years of hard use. (I wear them outdoors often).

As others have said, these slippers tend to be sized small, but they do stretch after a short time. I'd recommend getting them 1/2 to a full size larger than normal. I bought 1/2 size bigger, but when new, they were very tight (so tight, I nearly returned them). Once broken in, they are quite comfortable and seem to be of good quality. I rated them only 4 stars due to the guesswork involved in picking an appropriate size.

Slippers are comfortable, but tend to run a little small. Nice option for the extended sizes.

I purchased a pair of these a few years ago for my husband and they finally wore out. He didn't want any other slipper, only these. These have been the most comfortable and lasted longer than any other kind we have tried.

Size and width were shorter and narrower than standard for claimed size. No half sizes offered and widths jump from medium to 3x (WOW). This return has cost me 2X shipping fee. I would not buy this item unless you are dead sure of size. Otherwise appears good looking, construction and value.

Very well made. Need to add 1/2 sizes. I wear 8 1/2 and the 9 I bought is a little big.

Like everyone else said, these are snug slippers. I'm a size eight and bought a size eight. At first they were just a little too tight, but now I've stretched them a little bit and they're fine. If I did it again, I'd order an 8.5 slipper.

They are very comfortable, and you can wear them outdoors as they have a solid bottom.

I usually wear a size 8 1/2 or 9, but often 9 is a bit large. Ordered these in a 9 and they were very tight - no where near any 9 I've ever had - maybe an 8 in the real world. After this, I read the reviews and found others with the same problem and still others reporting that they were larger than they should be. So, my conclusion is that there is virtually zero quality control as to size on these. On top of it, since they came from an external Amazon partner, return was handled very poorly. No pre-printed return label and I have to pay for the return shipping, along with insurance. Very disappointed.

I ordered the widest slipper in my foot size (EEE) but was unable to even wedge my foot into the slipper. It cost me $9 postage to return for credit. I'm wondering if other Amazon customers had the same experience. Morris Eisenberg

Just got my new slippers. I had been wearing a pair of Evans for about 20 years until I finally wore a hole in the sole. I now live in the Great Northwest and it gets a bit wet so needed some new ones. These fit perfectly, are warm, and seem to be every bit as well made as my old faithfuls. Hoping for another 20 yrs.
