Smartwool  Cabin Mule Slippers

I've been testing out the Cabin Mule around the house, cabins and yurts, and as recovery slippers after long runs this shoulder season. They're warm and have a good solid fit, and work particularly well in those short stints between inside and outside. Two primary strengths of this shoe are fit (quite snug when the heel is up) and warmth (very warm - at times, too warm!). The upper is fuzzy wool, so it's comfy and relatively breathable, but definitely on the warmer side. If you're between sizes, I would suggest going a half size up for these shoes. The heel is collapsible, so in theory you can slip these shoes on without reaching down to pop your heel in, but I found this didn't work for anything more than shuffling across the room. Once the heel is in place, which for me requires reaching down with my hand, they fit like a super comfortable shoe. And this is sort of the overall theme of my experience: these are more like warm, very comfortable shoes than they are like traditional soft slippers. But after a long run or climbing session, comfy shoes with no socks are exactly the ticket. One note on using these around the house, which was my primary testing environment: these are clompers. Because the sole is on the rigid side, it sounds like you're walking around the house in shoes, not in slippers. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

The Smartwool Cabin Mule slippers are a great option for around the house, cabin, or yurt. Our floors at home are hardwood so I almost always wear some kind of slipper, sandal, or clog in the house for comfort. The most important factors for me with slippers are comfort (on hard floors). breathability (so my feet don’t sweat), and enough of a weatherproof sole that I can walk to the mailbox. These slippers are on the warm side but breathable so my feet don’t sweat like they do in some all-leather slippers. The cushion provides sufficient comfort but is not “plush. ” The sole is sufficient to step outside. The materials and construction seem to be high quality with double stitching throughout. I like the option to wear with the heals folded down, but they slide around quite a bit when down so I mostly wear them in heals-up mode. Overall the fit is just right for my foot - not too tight and not too loose. I’m a fan of these slippers and they will definitely be getting a lot of use this winter. *I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

I received these super cushy slippers in exchange for my honest review. Smartwool has got it right with their Cabin Mule slippers! The merino wool on the insoles and around the foot is so soft and cozy. I loved wearing these while I padded around the house on cool mornings and taking these slippers out to my local bouldering gym to wear between sets. My only caveat for these slippers is the sizing. I found the 8 ran a little short in length when I had the slippers in "sport mode" with the heel cup up - I typically wear an 8.5 in women's shoes. I find it hard to pick a size when it’s unisex whole sizing! When I flipped the heel cup down (my preferred way to wear them), they fit perfectly in the length. I have a narrow heel and found the heel cup supportive and a nice tight fit when I did choose to use it!

I’ve been wearing/purchasing smart wools since I cannot remember. Maybe had my first couple pairs when I hiked Maine on the AT back in 2006 when I was 14? Anyways, seeing the paid for reviews I figured I’d put this out there to smartwool as I am intrigued by these and as all my gear would put them to the test, especially with the I indoor/outdoor line. Would love to test these between taking off mud boots/ski boots/boot boots and climbing into the truck and going home. Have a pair of your socks on now, had to sew the toe back however not your fault..puppy was unsupervised for a moment

I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. For someone who dislikes wearing slippers around the house so much that I have slipped in socks and fallen down the stairs many times.. I cannot stop wearing these! They make my feet feel both cozy and free at the same time. The rubber sole makes them extremely stable and grounded. From watching TV on my bed, organizing the garage, to hanging out in the back yard, they keep up with your feet without breaking a sweat! I was worried I'd have to wait until winter to wear them but the temperature regulation works like a charm. They've been great in temperatures ranging from 40°F to 80°F wearing them without socks. And winter's coming so I'll be wearing them with socks as well:) The main challenge I've had to deal with is the guilt of having them while my mom, dad, sisters, and brother, all walk around with envy in their eyes. Which makes the Cabin Mule slippers a perfect gift for litterly anyone with feet. (imho)

Overall a pretty good design and decent slipper. Really nice for basecamp, car camping, or indoor-outdoor slippers around the house. A few complaints for V1 that I'd love to see updated: * Merino interior - a lot of the interior that directly contacts the foot is synthetic / not merino wool which is bad for odor reduction (IMO one of the biggest benefits of wool footwear) * Bulky - I really like slim/minimal slippers and these are a bit too bulky for me Otherwise, these are great slippers. I love the mule/closed-back options and rubber sole - they make these slippers super versatile

Being an older person, I need indoor slippers that are easy to slip on but stay securely and comfortably on my feet, regardless of the surface or stairs I may walk upon. I have the added issues of extremely sensitive skin and toes that become painful if squeezed together. These slippers are perfect in all the ways I need. The sole is firm and safe, but not hard or inflexible. The knitted band across the front side of my ankle is soft and snug-fitting. The heel cup is also comfortably snug and secure. There are no spots in these slippers that cause any discomfort. There is only moderate support, but if I need to insert a more supportive orthotic insole, mine slide in perfectly after taking out the removable insole. These are wonderful wool slippers. Please make this slipper in the larger men’s sizes, too, 13-14 or even larger. Smartwool quality is on display again!

I like that these breathe well and my feet don’t get too sweaty. I just think the upper is a bit stiffer than I was hoping. The top of my foot gets a bit sore as the fit is unyielding and a bit constraining. They fit well and feel good in length, just too tight. Will keep them to alternate with some other slippers I have but will keep up the search for the perfect slippy slips.
