Best Overall: HAFLINGER AT Wool Slippers

Buy on Amazon Buy on Shoes.com

These slippers have molded arch support that helps with the fit and alignment of the foot. They're designed to keep your feet the right temperature, no matter what environment you’re in, and will absorb moisture to help keep them dry, too. Rubber soles on the bottom make these slippers great to use inside or outdoors.

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.

In terms of care, reviewers 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

Buy on Amazon Buy on Walmart

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 glowing reviews from people who love their versatility and ability to travel well as they're small enough to stash in an overnight bag. You could even leave a spare pair in your guestroom to help visitors feel at home during their stay.

These slippers improve on socks with a foam lining on the bottom that's thin, but comfortable. Since they don't have a rubber sole, reviewers note that they can wear out over time, especially if you wear them outside (which is not recommended). ​

Best for Women: UGG Ansley Slippers

Good

Buy on Amazon Buy on Zappos

If you are willing to spend a little more money for extra comfort, consider a pair like this one from UGG Australia. On the outside, you’ll find water-resistant suede and a rubber outsole which makes these slippers fine to wear both inside and out. The interior has a cozy lining that’s made to keep your feet warm without overheating. And to fit everyone’s fashion sense, this slipper is available in 15 different colors.

Customers have praised the slippers for their comfort and style. Some have also raved about how well-made and durable they are. Note that the sizes run small, so you might want to order one size bigger than your normal shoe size. Others have also warned that they require some “breaking in.” While this particular pair is sized for women, you can find a similar pair for men.

Best for Men: Tamarac by Slippers International Cody Sheepskin Slippers

Very Good

Buy on Amazon Buy on Walmart

Whether you're buying slippers as a gift for yourself or someone else, these comfortable, well-made, and warm slippers are a great option. The simple design looks like a mix between a moccasin and a loafer, and there are suede tabs at the ankles that make pulling them on much easier.

Another stand-out feature is the thick rubber sole. You can wear them outside and won't have to worry about them falling apart. The shearling lining is warm (although prone to shedding), and the memory foam footbed provides extra cushioning. However, because of the shearling lining, the Cody Slipper makes for a better winter slipper rather than something to be worn year-round.

Customers have praised the comfort and warmth of these slippers, although some have warned that the stitching can fray and come undone. This version is sized for men, but there is a similar style for women. Both the men’s and women’s slippers come in a range of colors.

Best Indoor Outdoor: L.L.Bean Wicked Good Moccasins

Buy on L.L.Bean

If you need a pair of slippers that will work for short jaunts outside the house as well as inside, L.L. Bean's Wicked Good Moccasins are up for the task. These classic looking moccasins are durable and attractive, and will stand up to everything from morning walks with the dog to chasing kids around the living room.

Named "wicked good" for a reason, these slippers are made from sheepskin and have a soft shearling lining that's designed to wick away moisture. The memory foam footbed ensures a comfortable fit—even when you're wearing them for hours at a time—and the hard sole offers the perfect amount of support. Most customers rave about the quality of this shoe, noting how comfortable and warm they feel no matter the temperature outside.

This version is for men, but the women's version is almost identical in terms of appearance. It's made with the same materials and offers similar color choices. Both offer a wide width, too.

Best Versatile: Parachute Quilted Slippers

Buy on Parachute

A common complaint with some slippers is that the interior lining is too hot for the warmer months. Suede, faux fur, and shearling can cause feet to perspire, which can be uncomfortable when you're wearing them for long periods of time. For a more versatile pair of slippers, we recommend Parachute's Quilted Slippers, which are made from a blend of cotton and polyester. Cotton is known for being more breathable than other materials but it's still able to insulate.

Parachute's slippers are available in two colors (mineral and stone) and five different sizes ranging from Extra Small to Extra Large. The diamond jacquard weave gives these shoes an elevated look, while the rubber soles provide a non-skid base—even on slippery tile floors. Another great feature? You can throw them in the washing machine to freshen them up. Just be sure to let them air-dry afterward. Customers give these slippers high marks, noting their plush feel and absorbent material. A few customers said that the slippers run wide, but this wasn't a deal-breaker for them.

Best with Shearling: UGG Coquette Slippers

Buy on Amazon Buy on Zappos

If you’re looking for major warmth in a slipper, a shearling pair is an obvious choice. This suede pair is lined with shearling and 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 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.

Best for Kids: Crocs Kids' Classic Slippers

Buy on Amazon Buy on Zappos

Shopping for little feet? This is a great pair of slippers for kids. The felt outside is paired with a fuzzy lining that kids will love wiggling their toes around in. The slippers come in five colors: pink, ice blue, cerulean, navy, and grey.

Each slipper has an elastic band that keeps the slipper securely on your child's foot, so you can worry less about them tripping or sliding. The slippers also have a rubber sole with small nubs for traction, which minimizes slipping and will give you a little peace of mind if your child insists on wearing their slippers to the grocery store.
