These are great! They are very comfortable (even with my problem feet and I literally sighed over how good they felt the first time I put them on), warm, and waterproof, and the wedge is stable and absorbs impact. I've walked miles of sidewalks in these already. I have two pairs - the brown and the dark grey and love them.

Love this bootie! The heel to platform height is perfect so you can walk in the shoe comfortably. With it being waterproof, there is no need to worry about rain or any other bad weather. The faux fur cuff gives it an added edge! This pair is one of several that I now have from La Canadienne and really do love the brand.

I normally wear an 8 1/2 - 9. Size in these slippers fit fine. As another person suggested, I put a small arch support under the insole making them more supportive and comfortable. They are very warm and lightweight with a "sporty" look as far as slippers go.

I love these slippers and wear them in the house all the time, as it is winter right now. While they fit perfectly, they might be just a pinch bigger than I expected -- shoes usually fit my feet snugly and these have that extra bit of room. They do stay on nicely and are really comfortable. They also wipe off nicely as I got food on them while cooking recently. I thought they would be grease-stained but came totally clean. Highly recommended for keeping your tootsies warm and comfortable in the house!

I chose these because they looked like they have a good sole, and they do. Also since so many items are made in China these days, I feel like I have to order up a size. Items fit smaller in most shoes I choose including slippers. A size 11 fits like a size 10 for me and I have a narrow foot. These slippers fit/feel great.

I forgot to say in my other review that these are also soft enough for "couch potato prop feet up on ottoman"... most other mule slippers with indoor-outdoor soles you can't do this!

OMG! I can't believe how well these work! Even in the coldest, draftiest room in my house, my feet remain toasty warm... and I am a "popsicle toes" original. Have had to go to summer socks to prevent sweaty feet! I am telling all my friends who keep the heat low to save energy to get these! At first I thought the innersole felt oddly lumpy, and slightly unstable, but that seems to have mushed into my foot shape after several days of wearing them, and they now feel very comfortable even for walking around the house all day. Wonderful to have toasty feet during the coldest weather! I thought they were expensive: they are really worth every penny! (I cannot wear wool or sheepskin so I can't compare these to the Uggs-style).

These are pretty nifty indoor-outdoor shoes. They are very comfortable, with socks, are quite warm, and I added a small arch support, and they are perfect (for me)!

I spent hours looking for slippers that would stay on my narrow heels and a good sole to wear in the hospital for a very long stay after a Major Surgery. I thought this slipper would stay on my foot and feel secure walking around. But you do not offer a Narrow width so I had to go with the Medium. They are too wide and I cannot keep them on my feet. I don't think ordering a smaller size would work. The photo was deceptive. It makes it look like there is a closed taller heel to fit around your foot. It was listed in the full slipper category, Not a slide or mule. Now I still don't have a slipper that fits and my surgery is a week and a half away.

I was very excited to get some new slippers that would slide on, had a flexible sole that I could wear outdoors, and looked stylish. I got two out of three. These slippers were cuter than I thought they would be. I really didn't think they would be that warm, but I was wrong. They also, unlike most slippers, made made my feet look small. I really didn't think they would be that warm, but I was wrong. The problem is that they do not slip on...my main requirement. You have to bend down and put them on. They have a lip on the back that makes it not a scuff but not quite a slipper. There is also a seam right at the back, so not only does it feel weird with the shorter back but the seam rubs in an odd spot. I wear and bought a 7. If it had been a slipper/shoe, it would have fit comfortably snug, but because of the half back/lip I felt they might be too small. They do stay on well, unlike most scuff slippers. Because they were so close of a fit I did not exchange for an 8...maybe those would have worked better. Also, the rubber soles were perfect...not too stiff, and only squeaked when I turned quickly. If you like this sort of slipper style, it would be perfect.
