This is my first pair of slipper boots.  Usually, I get slip-on slippers, or more of a clog style.  I really like these. they're great for house shoes if you have a cold house or cold feet.  They also have enough of a sole that they're good for grabbing the paper or taking out the trash.  They do not have loads of support so aren't great for walking or standing at length but if they were, they would be real boots.  I got them because my teething puppy was preferring my ankles over her chew toys and they have done the job of protecting my ankles.  Some of her vigorous chomping has frayed some of the stitching, but I would say that is the work of the dog, not the fault of the boot company.  I will certainly buy these again and might use my new pair for errands around the neighborhood in the winter.  I love the inside faux-fur.  The reason I gave them 4 stars is that sometimes some of that faux fur comes out a bit when I pull my feet out.  Not a lot, and not a huge deal, but over time, will wear them out and leaves big brown blotches on the floor for me to pick up.  I can slip into them but might take leaning on a wall or sitting to take them off, if that matters it you... that would be a no-no for my husband who prefers slippers that slip on and off.  If you're of the same frame of mind, these are not for you.
