December 11th, 2011: As advertised. Slippers are comfortable and feature a removable insole to throw in the washing machine once in a while. Stitching seems strong and overall, slippers seem to be well manufactured! I like the brown color I ordered as they were considerably cheaper than other colors. Rubber soles are great for making trips to the mailbox and going outside.

Thanks!

December 10th, 2012: Ordered and received my second pair of Sorel slippers. You can safely assume that I have been very happy with my previous purchase. My previous pair lasted about a year, which is about what I expected. I have washed my slippers every 2-4 weeks. With that kind of abuse, along with wearing them outside, I would have to say that I got my money's worth. I have read about the insides shedding, problems with the rubber sole and/or gripping too well (really?! Isn't that the point?), etc. I can tell you this much; the only problem I had with my soles was the rubber melting a bit while in the dryer. Yes, I threw my slippers AND the insoles in the washing machine and dryer. As far as the shedding concern, people shed skin, animals shed hair, and nothing lasts forever. I've been happy and will continue to order as long as I can get about a year's use out of them.
