I frankly cannot understand what the raving postings were about these slippers.  They are unbelievably too big, incredibly uncomfortable and having as much in common with comfort as a barbed wire fence does with balloons.  having a sock on my foot, the soles felt hard and inconsistent as well as the sides being immensely rough and unforgiving. You cannot 'slip' into them as you would think traditional slippers would allow; Instead there are sections of velcro which do not allow you to place 'correctly' and then leave.  You must remove them manually and then run through the same mechanics the next time you wear the slippers.  I am sure this company makes a product better than this, but frankly after his situation, I will look elsewhere.
