This could be a very comfortable slipper, if it's for a size 7/8.  I wear a size 9, and this slipper is barely that, even though the description states the size L fits 8/9!  Slippers should fit a little loose (in my opinion), so that one could wear socks for a bit of extra warmth.  These are very snug in the toe without socks, making them uncomfortable to wear for any length of time.  Slippers should not be uncomfortable!  Isotoner - please take note!

12/04/12 update - I laundered these slippers, and although they didn't fall apart, the lining/support (interior of the slipper) is not attached to the suede bottom.  Consequently, the entire inside got completely twisted and it took me several minutes of manipulation on each slipper to get it back into its original shape.
