Received quickly and was well packaged....I do love Minnetonka brand. Now let me say it is a lovely shoe as far as looks. The length seemed fine but runs a little small as far as the width for me. Call me frugal/cheap but I don't like the idea of paying over $15 for a house slipper - well not for myself anyway.  The bottom/sole is made of suede - in fact it is one continuous piece with the top and back securely sewn, (to myself I say it is a moccasin - duh). Why I thought I could wear them outdoors is beyond me - guess I should have paid more attention to the words "Soft Sole."  I returned them.
