Except for 2FF I probably wear slippers more than most people. Problem is I can't find a decent pair of slippers that will last more than a couple months. Summer I wear flipflops but when winter gets here snow forces me to go to slippers. My main go to type is moccasins slip ons with the phoney sheep wool inside. I tried Duluth Trading and found that the soles and outside part of the slippers last almost a winter. Uggs are a friggin JOKE. Anyone have any suggestions for one that is somewhat decent?????

Lol. I’m partial to slippers in the winter. Men of a certain age perhaps. I’ve had these for about a year. They are extremely comfortable and are lasting.

I bought a pair of these 2 years ago. They are comfortable and seem to be holding up well.

I will say that I bought the size I normally wear but when I got them I almost sent them back for being too small. After wearing them a few times they stretched out nicely for a perfect fit.

Sorels. I'm on my second pair. I wear them every morning and all day about 50% of the time, including right now. This is my second pair in about 6-7 years. Current pair is 2-3 years old.

Patagonia Boulder, they have a sole as they are more like loafers but mine are at least five years old. My wife loves her My Slippers from My Pillow.

I got some Mike Lindell "My Slippers" a couple years ago for Christmas, wearing them right now. They have been awesome
Same here. Two years in and they are great.

Umm no. Wife gave me some for Christmas. I just shook my head said really? Uggs or similar are okay for me. Haven’t worn any for years though.

This is a sore topic for me. LMAO! I've worn Sanuk fleece lined slipons for YEARS. They have been the BEST shoes for inside the house because of our oak hardwood flooring. Well, they no longer make them. 🤬

Looking back, I should have bought as many as I could find because they are PERFECT for me!

I was shopping for some Christmas gifts and found some Kookaburra slippers made by Uggs. They seem to be OK but I don't have any time in them yet...... My feet just keep going back to the old worn out Sanuks...... 🤷

Haflinger brand. Ugly as sin, but good arch support and last a long time.

God, I can't believe I'm even going to say this-but Crocs.
They make ones with fake sheep fur lining that are pretty warm.
I swore for years I'd NEVER put those ugly AF things on my feet.
Then my sister and BIL got us some as kinda a joke because they wear them all the time.
After spending years in work boots, those ugly stupid Crocs are the most comfortable things I have worn.

Gee-Zuss! I / we are getting old! I actually just read 27 posts regarding favorite slippers. 😃

My Grandpa Kermit would be proud. 🤗

Not so long ago, there would have been posts regarding favorite "Strippers" now it's "Slippers".

Im in Olukai's year round but once in awhile it gets cold enough I have to put my North Face slippers on. These have a traction sole on the bottom. You won't be disappointed.

my slippers also.
The first pair they sent were too tight.
Second pair were totally different and are now a few years old. Still great

I spend winters in Hey Dudes... Reef (the bikini model company, that also make sandals) make a similar shoe. All comfy, light, closed toes, but not really insulated. I get a winter out of a pair.

Added bonus, they do some patriotic shoes on occasion.

Pair of socks are what I wear if'n my feet are cold. There's enough slippers my wife leaves in random places for me to trip over already, no need to leave my size 13s laying around too.😄😄

Another vote for Hey Dude's. I work from home and wore out my slippers. Switched to Hey Dude's this winter and wished I had done it sooner. They are so comfortable.

Getting about time for some new slippers for me. Going to look further into Hey Dudes, Vans Slip-er and Sorel.

I wear insulated socks over normal socks in the winter, but I work from home and don't really go outside... Even on smooth tile, the insulated socks only last one season, I'll need to check out some of the premium slipper brands here...

What brand of plastic slipcovers y'all using these days?
