One of the best kept secrets of the English gentry. These slippers are extremely comfortable and the padded lining feels great on my feet. Much better than the fluffy slippers, like shearling lined moccasins, commonly found in discount shoe stores. These slippers have a sloe and a heel so you can do work around the house while wearing them. In fact, I don't even take them off when watching TV because they feel so good. You can pay as much as $900 for a pair of these but the Giorgio Brutini's are just fine.
