dh won't wear any of the slippers I have ever bought him. Instead he wanders around the house in a really smelly old pair of sandals

WideWebWitch · 26/09/2007 12:32

no real men do not
my dh has either shoes for going out or trainers
or bare feet/socks in house
or surfy sandals for summer, can't think what they are, fatface or something

Nope, never wear slippers.

Socks indoors, shoes for work, trainers or caterpillar boots for not at work.

Fimbo · 26/09/2007 12:36

Slippers for men are vile, with tartan horrors, navy blue old boys' slippers or saddo ones with bart simpson or daffy duck embroidered on them (up there with soap-on-a-rope as the top naff Christmas present to buy a man).

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/09/2007 13:09

slippers on any man under 70 are terrible - BIL has them and I'd find them a huge turn off if I was SIL !!

NorthernRockCod · 26/09/2007 13:10
