What customers say:

The shoes are generally described as comfortable, with a sturdy sole that provides good traction. However, some customers felt the shoes lacked sufficient padding in the footbed for extended wear. While most customers were satisfied with the quality and construction, a few were disappointed with the fit and comfort level, finding the toe box too narrow or the opening around the ankle too wide. With the right fit, the shoes are reported to be comfortable and practical for everyday wear.

Nice-looking shoe/slipper online, but when received at home I did not like the 'feel' of them at all! Seemed clunky, totally uncomfortable. Unfortunately, have had to return seve

I’d give it 5 stars if it wasn’t necessary to use a shoe horn to get on. A tab at back to grab to pull on would help. Once on they are warm and good for running errands. You alm

Run large
Size Purchased: 10
Fit - Width: Too wide
They seem like decent, well made shoes however, they were way too big for a size 10. I would have exchanged for a 9-1/2 but they do not come in half sizes.

Sized very large!
Size Purchased: 9
Fit - Width: Too wide
These shoes are sized very large! I'm a consistent 9 and these are both too wide and too long: my heels slip out of them when I walk. I will be returning them for a smaller size.

I like these. Love the look. They kind of have a weird bump on the inside of the heel which I thought may bother me but it doesn’t .

They are nice slippers/shoes but they run really big. Even with heavy socks they are to large.
