The instep is very tight. I bought a half size bigger, and it wasn't enough. I didn't believe they could possibly be correct, but the reviews saying go up 2 full sizes, they're not exaggerating. If you're an 8.5, get a 10. If you're a 12, get a 14. And it's not just the instep, the whole shoe is a little small.

The material isn't soft, it's on the scratchy side. The bottoms are not too heavy or clunky, they're actually quite perfect. The durability should be crazy good for a $100 slipper, but I read the complete opposite. The comfort (ignoring the instep tightness and scratchy material) is maybe average. I was expecting some crazy arch for plantar fasciitis but it's actually pretty low profile.

I can't say stay away don't buy, I don't hate them, but yeah.
