Slippers or slipper socks

9 replies

My feet get very cold and we have hard tile floors. I need slippers or slipper socks but they must be durable as I'm a SAHM and spend most of my day on my feet.

I normally wear barefoot friendly shoes / no shoes, so they need to have flexible soles if they're slippers and have to have a wide toebox.

I had some great flexible cheapo slippers from B&M last year but wore holes in them pretty fast.

Can anyone suggest anything warm, durable & flexible?

Also a barefoot shoe wearer, and can’t stand anything with a stiff sole at home.

I’ve been wearing these for about 3 years now, they’re still as good as new. The sole is good and grippy on a hard floor too.

As the Barefoot shoes work well for you, how about buying a pair to use as slippers solely (😬 couldn’t resist that)

Someone bought me crocs slippers for Christmas last year. Bit weird because it was like a last min christmas eve buy and cheap slippers would have done it as I wasn't expecting anything at all. Not something I'd have ever wanted myself really and seeing them I'd never have spent so much money on something so flimsy looking but I tried them on and wow they've barely been off my feet since. Not a bit worn on the bottom, dont actually feel like you have slippers on. They dont flip when you walk because of the strap around your ankle and you dont drag your feet in them after a bit because they lose their shape. I honestly love mine.

I double up. Fluffy socks inside cosy slippers.

They really are, I have two pairs and DH has the short ones. I really love them!

They are, hands down, the best slippers I’ve ever had. (Hence the recommendation!)

I just have fake uggs. Roomy, cosy, durable. They may not be flexible enough for you though the soles are soft
