I was reluctant to spend so much money on slippers. I have never in my life spent more than $20 on slippers. These were a little over $50 so I was reluctant but I wanted something good for my feet and the reviews were positive.  I have never been more comfortable in my life wearing these.  The softness inside makes me feel like I'm stepping on a pillow and the sturdiness of the outside gives me the support that my feet need. I often find myself wearing these out to fetch the paper or go outside quickly. I could probably even wear them to the store they are so durable. I never liked backless slipper before. They always seemed to fall off my feet. These fit perfectly. I am a size 13 shoe and I like to have wide shoes for my feet. The size 13 slippers fit perfectly and they don't ever feel like they are going to fall off. Before I always had to wear socks with my slippers because my feet would get cold. With the "fur" inside of these slippers my feet have never been warmer and i don't feel the need to wear socks, though the slippers are just as comfy if I am wearing them as they are without. Bottom line is I'm very happy with my purchase and am glad I spent the money on these slippers. They look and feel like they are going to last me a long time.
