They are now my favorite slippers. I will be buying some for Christmas presents!!
Wool felt is one of my favourites. I am a very cold person, feet are always cold. When I discovered this slipper on the Internet, I immediately ordered it. It keeps my feet warm and does not smell. Since the bottoms of the slippers are covered with suede, I have never worn them outside or in wet conditions. Just because I have inflammatory rheumatism, my feet hurt when pressed in the on hard ground. I wish the soles of the slippers were air to reduce the pressure when stepping on the ground.
I was so excited to get these slippers today, they were a splurge Christmas present to myself. So soft, so pretty and no doubt they would keep my toes warm. If only they had fit. The right slipper seems to be a full size smaller than the left. So the right slipper jams my toes together uncomfortably and the left slipper is so loose that the heel flops. Sadly back they go. :'(
If I could give 10 stars I would. 5 for the product and 5 for customer support!I am the barefoot queen... Hate shoes! However I live in a house in snow country that has hardwood floors. Feet get pretty chilly. Ive resorted to wearing socks but get too warm and end up with socks all over the place. These slippers are very close to being barefoot and I can slip them in or kick them off easily.Initially they did not confirm to my feet just right. Sorta felt like I had them on the wrong feet (I didn't). I reached out to Nootkas customer service. I told them up front that I planned to keep this but asked if they would shape to my feet. I received a response within 24 hours . Was assured they would conform to my feet BUT in the event they didn't they would replace them to include a different size if needed. Obviously didn't need that as they did shape to my feet.
Great for indoors only.Absolutely can not step outside, even on dry pavement. The sole picks up everything. I wiped with a damp cloth & black dye came off.
Glerups erratic sizing was unreliable. These fit perfectly the first time. I love them.
These slippers/house shoes/whatever you want to call them are wonderful. I always have issues with my feet getting overly warm -- or at least I used to. These slippers do not overheat my feet, but keep them just the right temperature. They take a little time to break in -- I legit thought I had them on the wrong feet -- but once they do they are perfect!
This is a well made product. Just ran large.
Well made, oomphy, warm and really well made. Their not cheap but you get what you pay for. Very happy with the purchase.
These are REALLY comfortable slippers, that run true to size. Being made of felted merino wool I expected them to be warmer, but they are still ok by me. Merino breathes really well, so the fact that they aren't as warm as I expected/hoped means they can be worn for three seasons (if not year round). I have taken them out for a handful of short end of day potty break walks with my dog, and the wear is noticeable. They're billed as "house shoes" so they aren't really meant for sidewalks, but I would give these 5 stars if the sole was just a little more durable.

FYI: Reviewing the same day received the package.I was unsure about what size to get based on reviews, but.. I figured that if too small one can stretch it with wear and tear, if too big one can moisture it and make it smaller.I have narrow 38 feet, and got a 6-7. With a bit of wear & tear, it should be almost perfect.The burgundy is like a dull dark read, I wished it was a bit brighter.Almost like not having shoes on, they have no real arch support and are super light.I don’t really like round shoes, maybe they take shape after use. So, I am hesitant about keeping them.By the way, it has nice presentation. Wrapped in a canvas bag and inside a brown shoe box. I would say it would make it a pretty gift.
Make sure you size down, I wear a size 8 to 8 1/2, I ordered a 6.5 to 7 in these and they still feel a bit big! I am fearful if they stretch out any they will no longer stay on my feet as they already tend to pull away from my foot when I step. These also took a very long time to arrive as I ordered them on 11/5, they arrived on 11/25 so 20 days later. They are extremely soft and well padded which I love. Also my feet tend to get hot so no fur lined high slipper would ever work for me. These are very comfy and not hot, yet warm for you cold footed people! They are beautifully crafted with a soft saude leather bottom which I always prefer in a slipper as well. Be warned as the suade wears the bottom of these slipper will get slick, none the less I have alway chosen and worn slippers with bottoms like these and no major fails for me, knock on wood. These are not for out door wear! I do find one slipper to be a hint larger than the other but they do say most people have one foot larger than the other, so hopefully you get the right slipper to fit your larger foot, mine is the opposite, sadly.
I have cold feet, and they keep my feet comfy in AC. Roomy but easy to walk in. I call them stealth slippers because they are very quiet when walking due to the leather outer soles. 8.5 - 9 fits my 8.5 medium wide duck feet. Update. I've had the slippers about 6 months, and holes have developed in soles of both slippers. The suede is not thick enough as it turns out. That said, we do have a stone floor on our screened porch, and that likely helped shorten the life. But I am disappointed, as I love them generally.
These felted wool house slippers feel so good! They are incredibly soft and luxurious, even wearing on bare feet. I have very picky, sensitive skin and dislike anything that is even the slightest bit itchy…these slippers don’t have even a hint of itch to them. They slide on and off easily, and you can also wear them with socks for extra warmth.The only observation I have in terms of fit is that the slippers fit a bit wide. I don’t have particularly narrow feet, but these seem wide to me. They ARE my proper size, and in terms of length I think I got the correct size. I probably couldn’t wear these barefoot too often just because they would be slipping off, but quite honestly, that is ok with me because I usually wear slippers with socks anyway (especially in the winter time, which is what I got these slippers for!) If you prefer wearing slippers with bare feet though, keep the wider fit in mind; if you have a wider foot, this might be perfect for you!All in all, I couldn’t be more pleased with these house shoes though. They are a minimalist look, but so restrained and classy, and the comfort is unmatched. Five stars for sure. Highly, highly recommend!
Really great quality, well made and very comfortable! Perfect for cooler/cold weather season, dry, warm and cozy! Wool breathes well and my feet don’t get sweaty. Bottoms of the soles are a solid rubber, inside sole has arch support! Definitely 5-stars, highly recommend!
My wife had been complaining for awhile that her 'house shoe' slippers weren't as nice as mine. She did have a point, so I ordered these for her. She loves them. They show up in a really cool looking box and inside you'll find the slippers inside a shoe bag. This is a sign of quality footwear and the first indication that you've got some good slippers. They say in the product description that they run slightly large but my wife says they felt pretty true to size. The reality is that the fit of *all* slippers is dependent on not only if you wear socks with them, but what kind of socks. I like wearing really burly wool socks with mine in the Winter so I go a full size up to accommodate. Like most good shoes, if they're snug when you get them they'll loosen up a bit.The slippers are handmade of very high quality 'fuzzy and cozy wool'. Per the item description, they use felted wool which is softer and better for the skin than boiled wool. The wool looks and feels very lush and luxurious and my wife reports they're very comfortable and warm. They wool is sourced from New Zealand, produced in a Fair Trade Certified facility in Nepal also using suede from India. The company itself is located just outside of Portland, Oregon and they don't mess around with this kind of thing in the Rose City. Very highly recommended!
