I originally saw these in a home solutions type catalog, but I didn't like the hefty price tag or having to pay shipping and handling. I liked the shoes and wanted to try them, but not that much. So when I found them here, cheaper, I was THRILLED.

I wanted a pair of lightweight shoes that I could wear around the house as slippers, because we have lots of cold wood floors and regular socks and slippers tend to still be slippery (I've slipped too many times and have wreaked havoc on my back). So when I saw these flats and read the reviews, I knew I had to try them. It was a bonus that they were made of recycled materials.

Thanks to Prime shipping, I had them in two days...and I have to say, without a doubt, they are just about THE most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever worn. EVER. And not just "Oh, I put them on and they're really comfortable" comfortable. Or "Oh, they're comfy while walking around the house" comfortable. But honest-to-goodness "I wore them out and about on errands ALL DAY and my feet never hurt" comfortable. Now THAT'S the meaning of comfortable!

And while they are good to wear outside, they're also small and light enough to wear around the house as slippers (so I just tend to wear them all day). I would love to get all the colors for some variety, but of course everything other than black is WAY more expensive. So for now, black will do just fine.

As far as sizing, I've been a size 10 for quite some time, in most type of slip-on shoes (dress shoes, athletic shoes) and am usually an 11 for shoes without a heel back (like clogs, mules, or flip flops). But after having a baby, I'm finding that 11s are a little more comfortable overall, so I went with an 11. It feels a SMIDGE big, but since I wear them with socks, it fits just about perfect. However, when I wore a very thin sock with them, my feet slipped just a little on one occasion as I was trotting across the parking lot. So, my advice would be these are not for trotting, LOL - stick to walking if it feels a bit loose. I might be able to squeeze into a 10 - and since they're stretchy it might not be too bad, but I like the little bit of extra room. So overall, I'd say they feel very true to size.
