These acorn slippers are not near as nice as they used to be.  This is the fourth pair I've bought in the last 10 years. The pair prior to this pair was purchased in 2016, and those were the same as always. These new ones have much less padding in the bottom of the slipper, so they are not as comfortable. And the embroidered acorn on the inside at the heel is much stiffer and pronounced. Every step you take you feel that acorn. I bought another pair in the Icelandic blue
 pattern hoping that they were more like the old ones but they weren't. So I sent those back. I'm very disappointed.
