[Closed] Indoor Footwear

Jeepers were you all born middleaged?

I'm 50, that's past middle aged. I don't need to pretend I'm young anymore and I like comfort.

And someone saying 'jeepers' whilst castigating people for wearing sippers is a bit off. We you born pretending to be an american?

Jeepers in not American. I like archaic non sweary swearywords. Crikey, jeepers, piffle, jings, help ma boab. cor blimey etc

Beej, let me know when you have a pair so I can pop round and try them on for size 🙂

Actually looking for some new slippers after a putoline accident in the shed the other day 😳

TNF traction mules better than tent mules imo. Rubber sole so can pop outside in them.

It makes you sound middle ages at best

I was thinking it sounded like a minor Scooby Doo character.

Nuvola cheap off SportPursuit. Mine were £10 (and black) - you need a size up if you don't want the heels to squish like a pair of fabric crocs.
I only wear em in the morning for some reason, socks the rest of the time.
They do some nice woolly ones too.

If I’d known you were all this bad I’d have started a what’s your favourite boiled sweet thread ages ago

Thread has come at the perfect time for me. Stupid foot has developped a mortons neuroma thingy and barefoot is agony. As sommeone who went 9months without wearing shoes once and believes the Skandi no shoes in the house thing should be law this is a problem. Some good options here.

Middlage rocks 🙁

Mrs_OAB is rocking this pair I bought her for Christmas.

You are doing it wrong.

Jeepers in not American. I like archaic non sweary swearywords. Crikey, jeepers, piffle, jings, help ma boab. cor blimey etc

Without going off topic, those words are synonyms for blasphemous words. Jeepers = Jesus. Crikey = Christ kill me.

Anyway, back on topic:

Ross Burton has it: Camper Wabi are the right answer (mine are green with orange and yellow camo soles).

Outdoors my garden slippers* are Crocs.

£40?! Pah! At least with the Mahabis you can pretend you're as cool as Goldie.

flipflops or big sheepskin lined slippers 🙂 but mainly flipflops.

i wear fake five finger shoes from ebay. Like [url= http://www.feetus.co.uk/footwear-c1/mens-vibram-fivefingers-kso-evo-black-fitness-running-shoe-p322/s1454 ]these[/url] original ones. And if it's cold, I've got some five finger socks as well. Really warm, and mean I've obviously not become old to wear slippers. The mid life crisis is doing well however.

I used to have the north face ones. They will smell if you're not careful...

You are doing it wrong.

I suspect you are right. But I seem to be paying for doing it right in my 20s and 30s and wearing bits of my body out.

They will smell if you're not careful...

Careful with what, your aim? 🙂

Couldn't possibly comment. 😆

Now where did I put my pipe?

Moccasin slippers, fur lined, plastic sole for nipping out to the log store.

Sorted.

Socks and slippers?

hmmm... interesting. I'll report back later on my findings.

I wear crocs in the house, and for taking the bins out etc duties. With and without socks.

TBH, they aren't even crocs, they are £4.99 copies from shoezone.

Flame away 8)

North Face tent mules here too - perfect if you work at home all day.

Socks and slippers?

Of course.

The slippers get all sweaty and stinky otherwise.

I wear a pair of croc-analogues, but they’re a bit cold for winter wear unless I wear really thick socks, and I have a really old pair of Merrell Winter Moccasins which are comfy and warm.
I’ve also got a couple of pairs of these Skinners ultralight footwear: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/skinners-revolutionary-ultraportable-footwear-shoes-design#/
They’re great in summer, I wore mine camping last year, and as soon as I get in my socks and shoes come off and my Skinners go on.

I've tried socks and slippers for the last hour and I thoroughly endorse this combination. It's revolutionary and could even extend the slipper wearing season beyond the dead of winter.

It's cold in my house, so these

Quite like these - Dude Wally Sox Knit. Needs to be slip on, have a heel and not look like I've given up on life. I don't think I need foot sleeping bags, I live in the South and hence have heating rather than having to burn pasties on a stove to try and keep warm.

Quite like the Mahabis classic too. £80 though, I could buy some Rapha socks for that.

@MrBlobby, I reckon you might have bigger feet than me!

Thanks for all the help peeps.

reduced to £12. lovely and toasty.....

We have UFH so it seems a waste to not go barefoot.
