About this deal

I would like to see this in a leather and shearling version, but that's not to say I disliked this slipper. On the contrary, I enjoyed wearing these slippers and returned to them more often than not.

But in all seriousness, they are great shoes disguised as slippers. A friend of mine has some, and she swears by them, but she only wears them in the house and around the yard. On the other hand, another friend wears them and adorns them with Jibbitz. I get it. They're comfortable. They don't smell (yes, I have been smelling them), and they're worth it. As I'm writing this, I found out that Crocs sells an actual slipper. Something I wasn't aware of when testing started. We'll have to put them to the test in the next round. If you’re looking for slippers that won’t break the bank and offer comfort, consider the Vonmay. After wearing them for two hours a day during the test, I can confirm that these slippers are very comfortable, thanks to a lot of cushion in the footbed. However, I noticed that when I walked, I sometimes felt the sides of the outsole rubbing against my foot. It wasn't something that caused any discomfort. It was just how the slippers were constructed (or maybe even how I was walking).Determine the slipper style. There are so many slipper styles to choose from that it can be overwhelming. I recommend staying with the most popular slipper styles, such as moccasins, booties, slides, clogs, and open- or closed-toe slippers. My personal favorites were the Lands' End Men's Suede Moccasin Slippers and the UGG Men's Scuff Slippers.

There were a couple of minor issues, like a long thread that wasn't cut, the heel collar would flatten if I didn't run my finger along it to make sure my heel wasn't resting on it, and when I washed it, it retained more water than I would have liked. On the upside, though, it dried in a day or so. While some were made of high-quality leather, others relied on popular materials like memory foam for comfort. I looked at the slipper's soles to determine whether they created traction on different surfaces to prevent slipping. I see the allure of Crocs now that I've tested them. Many people (like myself) have a very polarizing feeling about Crocs. They are everywhere, especially in the kitchens I worked in years ago—cooks/chefs love them for their incredible all-day comfort (similar to nurses). When I actually put them on, I was blown away by the comfort. The upper material should be of good quality since this will have the most exposure besides the outsole. Materials such as leather and microfiber, like those found in the Minnetonka Men's Pile Lined Hardsole Slipper, are great options since they are durable.Aside from being durable and comfortable, they are easy to clean; just toss them in the washer and let them air dry. One thing to note: run them on a couple of spin cycles to remove excess water. Since they are cotton and memory foam, they retain more moisture. It’s important to consider the different types of material used for the upper, lining, and outsole of your slipper. If you could have an all-terrain category for slippers, these would be the slippers. These slippers were comfortable right out of the starting gate. They are a let's-get-up-and-go type of slipper. Perfect for those morning walks with the dog, for walking around the house, avoiding the cold tile in the winter, and they're even great right out of the shower or hanging poolside. Overall, it was like wearing a shoe. Which, to me, was the problem. They felt more like a shoe than an actual slipper and were too bulky for my taste. Looking at it from a slipper aspect, they were warm, comfortable, and fit well. The care instructions say they are machine washable, but I didn't wash them because I felt it could damage the structure of the slipper. If these were less shoe-like and more house slippers, I would have enjoyed them more.
