House slippers

[Edward]

I’ve been on the lookout for a nice pair of Venetians. Viberg have a beautiful pair, also in shell, but there’s no way on this earth I’d pay that money.

I’ve got my eye on these slip ons by astorflex but can’t find a supplier for these in the EU that stocks them in brown. The green is growing on me though.

Those look nice. I'm tempted to try a pair of these from ebay, and maybe add a nicer, cushioned insole.

Edward I've had a few pairs over the years, decent leather also, I did the same, added a insole, I used to wear them all over sometimes in summer here with linen pants haha

That’s my thinking too. I go by linen in summer, some nice slip ons would fit well.

Very popular summer look here

My shearling sheepskins

And my new cowhide canoe soles that just arrived.

I have a pair of oversized sneakers I only wear in the house, but before that, it was a pair of moccasins that I now use at camp after a long day of backpacking. I miss the days when you could have a pair of handmade, double soles made for a reasonable price. Maybe I should start looking for a pattern so I can take a stab at making my own.

Glerups with the leather sole are my favorite—The rubber soled ones fit totally bizarre to me. When I’m home I live in these . I’ve had about four pairs over ten years. They hold up pretty well. I couldn’t be happier with em…unless they were free.

I cannot say enough good things about Draper of Glastenbury slippers. I have the unlined leather Henrys and have to say the little heel makes them so comfortable to walk around in all day. Generally better to keep a sock on as barefoot gets smelly quick

With a peet boot dryer you'll never have to worry about smell.

I have a pair of L.L. Bean Wicked Good slippers I wear pretty much daily.
The whip stitching on one sole wore out after a few years and I replaced it with several strands of linen and that wore out so I used nylon cord from REI and so far no more issues, though some of the holes are looking like they may tear. They are easily 5 years old at this point, probably 8 or more.

I also have a pair of English made house slippers similar to the first pair Edward posted. I got them from Brooks Bros. over a decade ago, but they don't seem to carry anything like them any longer. They don't get nearly the use of the L.L. Bean, since they are not as warm.

I love the LL Bean slippers, but they stopped shipping to California. I really want to try their leather-lined slippers. The sheepskin-lined are great, but the fleece inside wears out long before the slipper. I always wear mine with socks, too.

In winter / early spring I like to hang around the apartment in shearling slippers like these ;
Can't remember the brand that makes them though ! Only that they were quite a steal.
