Slippers

[StrictlyAvadaKedavraarrrrghhhh]

I need some very warm and toasty slippers with good grips on the bottom, that I could go out and put the rubbish bins out in, that aren't more than £40, that will last for ever and are a bit funky and don't look like granny bobble slippers.

All I can find are these..

Help!

I saw these in the summer, (at the BM I think) they were amazing but....far too small for a grown woman!
I wear fake birckenstocks with socks in the winter.

at mole slippers!

If it doesn't go against your ethical principles try "Just Sheepskin". I have the ones with rubber soles and they have lasted two years so far still going strong, don't smell and are totally cosy! Worth every penny!

I have no ethic priniciples, well not when it comes to clothes or chocolate anyway lol

Shallishanti, you talking about the mole slippers there??

I have these from Toast. They are comfy and toasty warm They have a proper sole and good grip.

They are so comfy and toasty that the other morning, as I climbed into the car about to do school run, I looked down to find them still attached to my feet . Oh the shame!! Thank feck I noticed them before getting to school.......in my defence I have had a LOT on my mind recently

oops

Ugg Scuffette slippers are really comfy and mine have lasted almost 2 years and I can see them lasting another 2.
They are £60 though.

Why would you go outside with your slippers on, surely you are walking all the grit back inside?

I have a pair of old mules for taking out the rubbish, next to the back door, then I climb back into my nice fluffy pink slippers, mmmm...

are they real???

and at £40 on slippers!i go through slippers in 3 months,i sqeeze my toes up and end up with holes!
if its to put bins out in would slip on shoes not be easier?

Well it's only two steps out of the door on a smooth path, I'm too lazy to go and find my shoes and change into them just for that

I think I'd prefer non mule types though.

I was going to recommend Haflinger as I have some and they are super comfy, warm, good sole (and I have actually driven to pick up my children from nursery still wearing them but they look quite shoe like - I couldn't find my exact pair online as they are 3 years old now). However, most of them are mule style I'm afraid.

I am convinced that paying more for slippers is actually a bargain in the long run, as long as they are good quality. Buying cheap which have to be replaced every few months is a false economy, imo. Mine are now almost a year old and still look brand new. You would be hard-pressed to get holes in the Toast slippers

Wish I had got the boot version though......perhaps an addition to my christmas list??
