I have bought these slippers for years. Even when Uggs got popular you pay triple for the lable, but they can't compare with Old Friends. I can replace the inside insert and they are good for another year. They don't come apart at the seams or toes even when worm out side. The warmth the wool provides makes your feet very toasty and comfortable. This pair I bought for my mother and she was thrilled. So I guess you could say they are our familys slippers for life. Buy these they are a wonderful investment. Kim Love
