These were the PERFECT gift for my father's 75 birthday recently. He must wear orthotics so these are great for him. My father loves them so much that he said he wish he could sleep in them too!! (Kidding of course!) ; )  I also bought these for my hubby, and he absolutely loves the comfort and appearance of these slippers with orthotics as well. Personally I require orthotic support, and this support is not enough for me since I tried them on, but they work well for my dad and hubby!
