I bought these to keep my feet warm and still get a cute, L.L. Bean kind of look for puttering around the house (even though I'm usually guilty of going outside in slippers as well). The leather/suede and the stitching seems very durable, the lining is very plush and soft and feels very luxurious. The colors are exactly as shown, and the sizing is right on (doesn't run small or large). What more could you ask for in a slipper?
