Mens slipper recommendations

11 replies

I am questioning whether it's possible for men's slippers to be under the same heading as style and beauty

Can anyone recommend any soft bottomed long lasting comfy ones please? DH seems to get through his at the rate of knots. Have to get him a new pair for his birthday (yes, we really live on the edge) and have done lots of googling but no idea where to start. Don't really want to spend more than £60 and for that I'd expect them to be v hardwearing.

I got my dh some nice ones from Next, they were from their signature/luxury range, have you had a look there?

The problem I've found with next hokey is the stuff dh or I ever get from there falls apart in a few months maybe we are just unlucky

My dh has had them for two years i think, they are sheepskin great quality, and actually not at all stinky!!

I paid about £45.00 for them i think i remember them coming in a big posh box (well posh for Next!)

Just looked - the most expensive mens slippers they do now are £25 - tbh I don't think £25 ones would last that well

I bought DH some homeys. I wasn't really sure about them at first - looked more the sort of thing my grandma would wear - but apparently they are officially cool and trendy, so what would I know. They're also apparently very comfy!

Also for sale at Office here and at amazon.

Rohde last for yonks but are not cheap (6 or 7 years)

Dh has these from Hush . I bought them for him 18 months ago and they still look good as new.

Another vote for homeys. DH is onto his second pair, and loves them.

I got DH some Camper ones for Christmas and they are lovely. Maybe about £50? He really likes them, they're sort of grey felt with a rubbery sole. Doesn't look like his toe will go through them any time soon! Ii sometimes borrow them and would like some of my own. White company sometimes do nice men's ones too.
