  Best Overall Unisex: Haflinger Unisex AT Wool Slippers

  

  Excellent

  Buy on AmazonBuy on Jet

  

  This product has many of the key components people look for in a good pair of slippers — most importantly, comfort. It has molded arch support that helps with the fit and alignment of the foot. It’s also designed to keep your feet the right temperature no matter what environment you’re in, and it will absorb moisture to help keep them dry, too. Rubber soles on the bottom make these slippers great to use inside or outdoors. One reviewer said they’ve gone on the front porch in the snow and the shoes provided the right amount of traction.

  The majority of customers would recommend these, with some saying they won’t buy any other brand in the future. Many have praised the shoes for saving their feet. One customer with plantar fasciitis said the shoes cured their aching feet. While most say the fit and comfort level is great with these, some have warned that they have gotten holes in the toe area.

  In terms of care, consumers have said they’ve had success with running these slippers through the washing machine and letting them air dry overnight. Made for both men and women, these slippers come in an assortment of colors including gray, red, and black.

  Best Slipper Socks: World's Softest Cozy Slippers

  Very Good

  Buy on Amazon

  

  Sometimes an actual slipper might feel too cumbersome on your feet at home — that's when a slipper sock might be a smart option for you. This pair has over 1,600 glowing reviews from people who love them for their versatility and ease for throwing in your suitcase for travel.

  They aren't socks because they do have a foam lining on the bottom but nothing super substantial. Since they don't have a rubber sole, reviewers note that they can wear out over time, especially if you wear them outside (not recommended). ​

  Best Shearling Women: UGG Women's Coquette Slipper

  

  Buy on Amazon

  

  If you’re looking for major warmth in a slipper, a shearling pair is the obvious choice. This suede women’s pair is lined with shearling and also features an updated cork infused rubber outsole that provides durability and allows you to wear them both inside and outside. They’re so warm you can wear them without socks in the cold and still have cozy feet. But they’re not so hot that they’ll make your feet sweat. 

  Customers have raved about the comfort, with some describing them as pillows for your feet. They do run small, especially since there’s thick lining, so you might want to go up a size (or even two). Some customers have warned that there’s not a lot of arch support, but the overall consensus is that they’re very comfortable, especially for lounging around the house.

  To clean, the company recommends using a special UGG branded cleaner and conditioner that you can purchase at shoe stores or online.

Products Tested by The Spruce

How We Tested

We bought three of our readers’ favorite slippers and our reviewers tested them for 85 hours. We asked our testers to consider the most important features when wearing these slippers, from comfort to the durability of the soles. We've outlined the takeaways so that you, too, know what to look for when shopping.

What to Look for in a Pair of Slippers

Material Opt for natural materials over synthetics. Polyester and other synthetic materials aren't as breathable and can cause your feet to sweat.

Soles For a more all-purpose shoe, consider rubber or cork soles. Rubber is durable, waterproof, and provides good traction. Cork has the same benefits as rubber but is also naturally odor resistant and moisture wicking.

Backs vs. no backs Though backless slippers are no doubt easier to put on, you might have trouble keeping them on your feet if you’re doing much more than going from the bedroom to the bathroom. If you’re up and about a lot, consider slippers with backs instead.

What We Like

• Conform to feet

• Durable soles

• Low price

What We Don't Like

• Foam base compresses over time

Our reviewers thought these memory-foam clogs were the perfect pick for quality slippers at a good price. Notable aspects, according to our testers, were the “fuzzy and soft” insides, “tough” sole and “foam base that conforms to your foot.” And although one person noted the foam does start to compress slightly after frequent use, the soles hold up well even when worn outside. “There's not really anything I would change about these slippers,” one reviewer remarked.

What We Like

• Super comfortable

• Great foot support

• Durable

What We Don't Like

• Not machine washable

Our testers loved these slippers for the superior quality of the wool, amazing comfort, and durability of the soles. “The insole is actually contoured for foot support, which is like no other slipper I’ve ever had,” one of our reviewers gushed. Although our testers found the slippers to be “breathable,” one person mentioned the fit was on the snugger side and suggested going a size up if you’re looking for a roomier pair. One of our reviewers also wished they were machine washable. Bottom line? “I’ve owned lots of slippers, from cheap synthetic ones to brand name wool-and-rubber ones like these, but the Haflingers are the best I’ve had,” raved one of our testers.

What We Like

• Very cozy

• Warm

• Super flexible

What We Don't Like

• Not attractive

• Loud on hard surfaces

According to our reviewers, your feet will love these slippers for their warmth and softness, with one of our testers describing them as “the true definition of comfort.” “You'll enjoy walking around your home in these, as if you're practically walking on a thin bed of pillows,” one of our reviewers remarked. On the flip side, they aren’t as attractive as some pairs, according to one of our testers: “They just look bulky and fuzzy on the feet. But they're so comfortable you shouldn't really care.” One of our reviewers also mentioned the bottoms make a sticking noise on hardwood floors.
