Go on then, recommend me some nice warm slippers for the winter. M&S and John Lewis are letting me down. I don’t particularly need slippers which look like animals feet or claws.
I have some Ecco ones which were pretty excellent but they don’t do them anymore.
Whatever you do don’t get the Mahabis ones that they advertise on Facebook all the time, although the more expensive ones might be a little better.
The normal ones are grey felt which fluffs up and looks rubbish in no time, the neoprene heel caps are rubbish and serve no purpose, and the attachable soles don’t attach very well and risk coming off and tripping you up.
Crocs with the furry lining. Obviously this choice will go down badly with proper slipper aficionados, but they are ideal for nipping outside for small jobs when swapping from slippers to shoes would be overkill.
£12 at Asda. Fur lined and pretty warm on my drafty floor. Just make sure you buy the size that feel too small, they stretch in a couple of days. These ones felt right but are now too big.

I really can’t decide whether you already had that photo of yourself tenderly holding an Asda slipper in your collection, or you took it especially for this thread. 😆

Crocs are my summer slipper but they are bloody lethal in the wet, especially on kitchen floors.
I got the North face tent mules for winter but since we moved out of the old cottage they are just too warm.
I’m a big fan of bedroom athletics harris tweed slippers, have a couple of pairs cosy lining and standard. They last well and you usually get them for under £20 in their near constant ‘sale’.

I already had it, carefully filed under “footwear” so it was easy to find.

So comfy but outdoor-capable that I went to Archery yesterday afternoon still wearing mine 😳
Got some a few years ago ( I think after a recommendation off here) and they’re great. Warm, comfy and with the rubber sole, you can take the bins out or whatever and not worry if the ground is wet.
Have you lot never stood on a piece of Lego? I would never compromise when it comes to house shoes. Dolce & Gabbana embroidered velvet slippers ftw. Simply put, they have not let me down and will last a life time…..
As P20 said the North Face ones are good, a little expensive (I think I paid £35 for mine) but last, mine are coming up 6 years old and are still going strong.
I have the traction version so I can go outside to put bins out etc, also good for scraping up hair from carpets so the hoover can get it.
I work from home and my feet under my desk are next to an outside wall therefore warm slippers are essential. I had some leather uggs for several years but they getting a bit sloppy so the cold air is getting in. I’ve go Mahabis on my Xmas list but maybe I’ve fallen for the marketing.
