Glerups Wool Boot Rubber Outsole Charcoal/Black Rubber 43 (US Men's 10, Women's 12) Medium

100% wool is still the best option for maintaining warmth and keeping you dry in everything from moderate to extreme conditions. Unlike down, synthetics and especially cotton, it continues to work whether wet or dry from external sources or perspiration. Wool has a seemingly innate 'intelligence' unsurpassed by other insulators in my experience.Unlike synthetics and cotton, wool whisks moisture away from your feet keeping you dry. Staying dry is large part of why wool is so effective. The clamminess present in cotton and synthetics is absent with wool. Only down seems to be slightly more effective but if it gets wet, useless. If you're used to synthetics and cotton, 100% wool will be a revelation.As for these, well made, true to size and unlike many other slippers, my feet don't slide around in them making walking safer and more shoe-like. You won't have to shuffle around in them. Just walk normally. They fit like a glove and are true to size.I recommend the rubber soul option given that it has very effective non-slip properties and will stand up to a short walk outside to pick up the mail. These should not be used for outdoor activities or a trip to the grocery store. They are first and foremost indoor slippers and will not stand up a lot of outdoor walking on concrete and many other surfaces.With proper care (occasional cold water soak in a wool rated detergent, thorough rinse and air drying), they'll likely last for years. It shouldn't be necessary to wash these more than 1-2 times per season assuming no unusual conditions - spills and other contamination for example.I also have a pair of calf high Bure Bure wool boots that are very similar to these aside from height. Almost 5 years old, regular winter use, 100% wool, same thickness, rubber soul. They are still in excellent condition.Tips:I'd recommend wearing a 100% wool sock as a liner. This will keep them clean longer and also provide a little more insulation. Also more comfortable. I usually wear "YUN Men's Natural Pure 100% Wool Warm Boot Winter Socks" which are available from Amazon. Good socks, decent quality, decent price, long lasting.Expect some pilling. Normal for wool. Not something to be concerned about.After the last wearing of the season, store them in a moth proof container, preferably something breathable but still moth proof.Bottom line, wonderful slippers. Pricey compared to ~15 dollar synthetics but much higher performing. With proper care (hand wash in cold water only with a wool rated detergent, air dry only), they should last for years. Definitely a 5 star product for me.

These wool house boots are just what I have been looking for! They are true to size and not tight around the toes. Keep my feet warm and wick away moisture, so no sweaty feet. Excellent quality.Note - these are flat bottom, no memory foam, nor any kind of arch support. After wearing a few days they do adjust to the shape of your foot. I got with rubber soles to wear to the mailbox and find them very comfortable, but still consider them house boots only.My last pair of house slippers hand synthetic sheer lining which was warm but began to have an odor even after spraying insides several times with Lysol.

I really like these "house shoes". They fit perfectly, don’t cause a tripping hazard and look somewhat less like slippers than most shoes of their ilk. I can wear them out to get the paper or the mail, go to the compost bin or to the trash bins. They don’t flop around on my feet, aren’t particularly scratchy, and they keep my feet warm. I have a lot of stairs to navigate, and, because they are not bulky or loose, I feel safe walking in them. There is absolutely no arch support in them. They’re slippers. The best ones I’ve ever had.

These are so warm and comfortable that I hate to take them off.

I ordered the slippers. Excellent design & materials but unsuitable for all-day wear. Right shoe, wrong style. Tried the shoes, then the boots.. I’ve worn the boots for six weeks straight. Better than barefoot. even the best ordinary shoes force me to walk unnaturally. Shoe people always said “it’s the way you walk”. I said “you aren’t designing shoes for the way humans walk”.The first few days were painfull. Considered returning them for the fourth time. Bought a size smaller than I require. Like Birks, Glerups need time to mold to your shape. After that, it’s a warm hug. It’s just a big, wool sock you can do the shopping in. Glerups don’t force my foot into unnatural positions or restrict movement. If you dance with kittens on tile floors, these may be for you. Rubber soles that grip & flex just enough.They look amazing- the way shoes for human feet should look. No ornament, no excess, natural colors, comfortable materials. Ordinary shoes now feel like walking on vaguely foot shaped trays, bound to my foot by leather, cloth & chemicals. Haven’t figured out why more people aren’t wearing these or similar shoes, unless it’s the price or lack of support/stabilizing properties.All that said, I’m not certain constant wear is healthy (we’ll see) and I want more sole under the outer heel.Update: I’ve been wearing these boots exclusively, for about a year. They’re slightly loose, one heel is coming undone, the felt is thinning out in one spot but they look good.after a clean & trim.. Still the only thing I’m wearing. Keep a second pair for going out and you’re set.

Just got these, so have no idea about durability, but they sure are comfortable (especially with a thin arch-support pad inserted). Very warm but seem to absorb moisture, so my feet don't feel steam-cooked. These are expensive, so I hope they get me through the winter if I wear them around the house every day. If so, I'll have another pair for next year.

These are wonderful slippers! I always find slippers make my feet too hot, but these are cozy and don't cause sweating. They are easy to slip into. I did need to break them in gradually as I found the back of one of the slippers a bit scratchy- but now they are comfortable.
