These slippers are exactly what I was looking for - slippers that provide support and cushioning for walking around the house with hardwoods and tile floors, have enough of a sole to go outside and get the paper or the mail, and are warm.  I wish I'd gotten a half-size smaller, because when the fleece lining compacts, they get a little loose.  They don't have the standard huge and hard Vionic arch support (like the sandals) - but it's sufficient for a slipper, and better than anything else out there that I've found.  I have five or six pair of Vionics...these are great.
