My daughter is 18 years old and has a fun silly personality. I purchased her the blue bear slippers and she wears them all the time...Even to the gas station. As you can probably predict they are getting kind of dirty but she loves them and likes the "worn" look. She does agree that the back of the heel is tight because she is a 9.5 woman's size but it's only a tad off and doesn't bother her much. She gets loads of compliments...or comments about the slippers (I mean she is a little bit of a shock to see in public with these dirty things) I might just get her another pair, maybe a darker one... haha
