Nice product with one oddity
These are a great pair of slippers. However, I'm puzzled as to why a loop is sewn on where the sole meets the heel. If the loop is to facilitate slipping them on, it ought to be at the top of the heel instead of halfway to the sole.

comfortable slipper but not durable
The shoe looks good and feels good, but the heel has a small rip in the back after a month of light wear around the house. I bought them as lounge shoes for a ski trip in two weeks and now I'm afraid to take them with me in fear that they'll completely fall apart.

Comfy, but Bad Stitching and Peeling Logo

The slippers are only comfortable when worn with socks. After about a month of occasional use inside the house, the stitching has started to come loose, and the logo on the left slipper has mostly peeled off.

Returned these.

Most of the reviews posted here were strong for this slipper. That attracted me to these. However, many reviews seemed part of a 'promotion' and have to wonder now if that automatically compels a reviewer to be artificially enthusiastic. I do agree that it runs a tad small so ordering a size up is best. I tend to wear size 10 in a slipper but size 11 was better in this instance. Having said that...though I found the slipper well constructed, I was disappointed that the sole has zero arch support and minimal padding. For the price of this slipper, that shouldn't be the case. It was a deal breaker for me. I returned them.

Mens Thermoball

Love this footware so much that after a year of solid usage I purchased another pair! When worn outside there were so many complaints like “I love your shoes.” Comfortable and especially nice for long drives or flights.

Nice, but can’t wear without socks

These slippers are very warm. The outermost layer is identical to the thermoball jackets Northface and Patigonia make. The problem with these slippers is there is a “thermoball” tag on the inner side of the heel on both slippers that rubs and constantly pokes you if you wear the slippers barefoot. The only way to not get it to bug you is to not fully secure your foot in the slipper, but instead wear them without the heel area holding your foot inside. This is annoying since your heel ends up getting cold while the rest of your foot is warm. I am really surprised the designers of these slippers included the tag since if you take a few steps in the slippers you immediately feel the tag poke your foot. I ordered these online so I didn’t figure this out till I tried them on at home. Overall, I would only recommend these slippers if you plan on wearing them with socks or not pulling the heel cup over the back of your heel.

Great quality maybe not for tall feet/high arch

Without wearing them, seems to be great quality which would be 5 stars, fuzzy interior, sturdy shoe, however returning after trying on since the fot opening was a bit too tight for a high arch (which qualifies for only 3 stars since they were returned). Fits wider feet comfortably but those with a tall foot, it may not fit. Can wear with the backs down or up. Normal size 10.5 and sized up to 11.

Exceeds expectations

Man, super comfy! I meant for these to be indoor shoes but I'm helping someone out (... indoors) and ended up needing to pop outside real quick before the rain hit to take care of something - couldn't find my shoes, just went out in these. It is unreal how comfortable, soft, cushioned, pillowy these are while still providing exceptional traction on dirt, concrete, smoothed pavement. The rubber soles (good and knobby, solid rubber) would keep me from using these inside of a sleeping bag, but short of that... these feel like they can do it all. Tight fit - I'd say go a half size up - but it just keeps 'em secure. I feel planted while also somehow profoundly cozy. I'm really impressed with these.

Price switch

Just recieved these today. They feel great and are warm. Interestingly enough, the tag attached to them reads the price at $55 and they were sold to me for $59. Not sure how I feel about that.

Best Slippers I've Owned

These are the best slippers, I've ever owned. And that's saying something because I held my childhood GI Joe slippers as the best ever, because well duh GI Joe. They have great treads on them. I can wear them as scoffs or regular slippers. Super warm, and I'm a diabetic so I have less than ideal circulation. I decided to take a chance on these, switching from LL Bean Moccasins. Glad I did.
