To ask you to recommend me some good quality slippers?

[Whatisthisfuckery]

I’m fed up of crap slippers. I’ve tried all the high street shop ones and they’re all a bit rubbish. Can you recommend me some that are hard wearing, comfortable, good grippy sole, not pink or sparkly and will not go all saggy and end up being a health and safety hazard?

Unused to buy Celtic Cornish ones but they don't last as well as Shepherd.

I also put arch supports (half length) inside my slippers because I need them.

Gumbies are great!

Gumbies are great!

Yes, DH has Gumbies. He's very hard on his slippers but they've survived 2 years already and still look like new

Uggs are amazing

Mahabis or Birkenstock's

Fitflop clog "slippers", had for more than 5 years and they're still so comfy. Plus easy to nip out in to put bins out etc etc. Feet feel brilliant as soon as I put them on.

Another vote for Gumbies.

Definitely Celtic sheepskin ones. They are amazingly warm and comfy and not saggy at all.

Lined crocs

Giesswein. Lovely wool slippers that last for years.

I’ve had my Biden ones for 7 years but sorry to say ordered another pair only because mine looked tatty and they didn’t last a year. Now have Ugg ones and they are wearing well. Although I do keep my old Biden ones as back up.

Another one for Mahabis.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Sorry I’ve taken a whole day to respond.

I’ve had a look at lots of them and not made up my mind yet, plus a lot of places have sold out of my size. I might hold up until January to see if there are any sales. Some of the ones I like cost what I would consider a fortune.

I’ve had a pair of ugg slippers for a couple of years now and they are still so comfy and they haven’t become stinky like cheap slippers seem to 🙈 would highly recommend

I've had my Emu sheepskins for 6 years they're amazing throughout the year warm in winter/cool in summer and not a whiff 😖 comes from them.

Mahabis! Had them three years this Christmas. Still going strong 😊

Am thinking about getting DH a pair of mahabis for Christmas. Can I just ask how they fit? Are they true to size? Thx

so glad to have found this thread.. marvellous slippers options thank you 🎉

@biddybird to begin with I was really cautious and used febreeze on them but after a while (and a few trips around the garden) I've used hot soapy water and let them dry out under the radiator.

@LunaLoveFood thank you! Hot soapy water for them this evening.

Uggs. DH had to buy them for me as I couldn’t get over price tag. Still wearing them 8 years later. Proper outdoor sole. Cosy.
Worth £75..

Several Christmases ago I was given some emu jolie. Not the sort of thing I would usually buy or the price I would pay for slippers but I now would never go back to cheaper slippers. They are worth every Penny.

Fitflops but leather not fabric
