I put this on and about died. They are softer, more cloudlike and warmer than I could have imagined and look cuter on than I imagined (I thought they look a little elf-like in the pic, but they look good on). I wanted that feel, but didn't want a big bulky slipper because I like to sit on my knees with my feet folder under me; these feel like huge puffy slippers but don't look bulky.  I normally wear 9, about 20% of the time a 9.5, so I ordered the 9 because I will mostly wear them barefoot, but my feet are slightly wide and I have a square shaped toe box and I was stepping on a big seam on my bigger foot. So, I'll exchange them for a half size up and hope that will fix the prob.
