To me these just bring back memories of being ‘in’ 15 or so years ago, or in more recent years only being worn (a replica version) tucked into pyjama bottoms by people who find it acceptable to be in pyjamas outdoors.

My child has announced they are very much back in vogue and she would like some for Christmas. After I recoiled in horror, I thought I’d ask whether they actually are, and I’m just hideously outdated?

In case it’s not obvious, tongue is largely in cheek. But I do want to know whether they’re back in style!

Ultra minis or the tasmans are in! I love mine 😂 like walking on clouds!

ZippyLimeSnake · 04/11/2024 19:20

You’re hideously outdated 🤣
They’ve been back in the past 2/3 years, make sure you double check what ones she wants as the Ultra mini platforms, mini platform & anything platform are the main ones that are in, as are the mule type!

I don't care if they're in or not I love mine regardless!

My husband just said the same 😭

Do these slippers get worn outside? I am so confused 🤣🤣

That's so funny, how are these fashionable?!

Yeah I don't get it either 🤷‍♀️ they look like slippers to me too but this is what my daughter is desperate for for Christmas, and what her older cousins wear.

You might be able to get away with thr Micro mini but I would check with her as its probably the slipper ones she's after!

They are. Dd age 12 has some for Christmas.

OliviaRodrighost · 04/11/2024 18:48

They are, especially the really short ones with a platform sole.

Suzuki70 · 04/11/2024 18:48

Yep, we are about 2 years in now. Last year it was all about Minis. Fortunately I kept my 2013 pair!

Waltdisnerd · 04/11/2024 18:48

Especially the low ones are in style

anywherehollie · 04/11/2024 18:47

Yes they most definitely are!
