I like over-the-ankle slippers and I need something with a real sole so I can take the dogs outside even if it's raining.  I found these and liked the price.  My first thought was that they fit a little "weird" because it felt like I got two left slippers.  Not a good start.  They've now worn in a little and I don't have that feeling anymore, but I will say that when I bought them I had been looking for UGG's and bought these instead to save some money.  In retrospect, I'll pay the extra next time for UGG's.  These are just fine, but I've had UGG's before and they're just that much better to be worth the extra cost.
