Never been a slipper person, but after recently moving into a two story house with hardwood floors I found my feet getting a bit chilly and they would hurt if I was standing for extended periods.  I required slippers/shoes/sandals with heels and these slippers solved all of my needs quite admirably for a decent price.

A word on sizing: they are a bit snug, but if you're like me and usually get half-sizes (I normally need an 11 1/2, but get 12s because 11s are too narrow) then you may consider just going up to the nearest whole size instead of skipping a whole size.  I have wide feet and the 13s are snug on my toes, but too long to the heel causing them to flop a bit more than I'd like.
