Slippers Buyer’s Guide

Indoor or Outdoor

Knowing the location of where you will wear your slippers the most is an important factor when it comes to getting the most out of your new slippers. We don’t mean you have to be hugely specific, but it does help to know whether they will be worn only indoors or whether there will be some occasions when being able to wear your slippers externally would be an added advantage.

If you are only going to wear your slippers within your home, then it is not imperative that you have more durable or rubber soles for example, so you could look for slippers with suede leather or satin soles. These will be fine to wear around your home as you will not be treading on stones, rocks or other unidentifiable or sharp objects. If you will be wearing your slippers outside, then you want to look for a more hard wearing sole.

This may include gum rubber or in some cases may be synthetic, but either way, you don’t want to rip or damage the bottom of your slippers, rendering them permanently useless. Look for slippers which can protect you and your feet, thicker or harder soles. There are some slippers that have waterproof soles and are ideal if you do not live in the driest of places, have a pond or pool nearby.

Durability

You want to be able to find a pair of slippers that will last you, and preferably last you for a couple of years. Slippers are not disposable objects, so you need to find a pair that fit in with your lifestyle and are durable enough to cope with it. An excellent example of this would be satin slippers for people who put their slippers on to do nothing but sit down, read or watch TV, but these would be the wrong soled slippers for someone who walked around a lot.

Not only would that not be durable, they generally do not have any anti-slip ability either so could be dangerous on shiny, wooden, or wet floors.

Washable

We all live busy lives, and this is not looking like it is going to alter any time soon. Just as any other part of our bodies, our feet sweat and therefore our slippers can become somewhat odorous. For some people with certain types of slippers or feet which are prone to sweating more or enhanced odor, this is when the ease of washing really matters.

If you fit into either of these later brackets, then you want to make sure that either the entirety of your new slippers are machine washable or the inner soles of your slippers can be placed safely within the washing machine. EVA footbeds are perfect examples of this. You do not want to have to throw away your wonderful new slippers after just a week’s wear.

Another thing to look out for is the added bonus of your new slippers having antimicrobial additives hidden within the inner soles to prevent the bacteria from building up and helping to decrease the smell. These are very effective, especially for specific types of people such as people who spend vast amounts of time in their slippers, athletes, and anyone who frequently put their slippers on when they have wet feet.

Style

Just as with anything we purchase, we want to be happy not only with the function but with the aesthetics, too. Due to this, there are so many different styles on the market for you to choose from to ensure that you get the style of slippers that you are happiest wearing and that suit your personality, lifestyle and home perfectly.
