Gift for the husband

Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2024

Size: 9Color: BlackVerified Purchase

These were the exact slippers my husband wore when he went into the hospital for a month for his transfusion for cancer treatment. He wore them in the hospital and when he got home. They lasted him for a couple of years until they wore out completely. He didn't want to get rid of them because they were a part of his rebirth, but when they no longer had stitching keeping them together and the sole was worn thru, I bought him a new pair. He loves them. They are comfortable and fit precisely.

Great shoe for casual wear!

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2024

Size: 8Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I have two pair of these shoes (black and charcoal). Both are great for comfortable, casual wear around the house or quick trips around town! These aren't the kind of shoe I'd wear for exercise or hiking. But they fit a need for my lifestyle!

Great Shoe, Not Durable in Wet grass

Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024

Size: 10.5Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I have now owned 6 pairs of these exact shoes and will order a new pair in the coming months. I typically get about 3-6 months of life out of them before the soles start coming off the shoe. I tend to walk my dog in my yard with them for at least an hour a day whether its wet or dry. I suspect its the wet grass that leads to the shoes coming apart. That said, a supply of super glue and you'll get some extra life out of these shoes.

One Good The Other not so Much

Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2024

Size: 11Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I ordered two pairs of these shoes for me for work. The first pair after only a few days the glue on my left shoe let go and the whole rubber sole came right off. It was a good thing we had some strong glue at work and I fixed them which helped for a couple of days but then finally let loose and I had to throw them away. The second pair I purchased has held up nicely and I have been wearing them for months now so maybe I just got a bad pair that slipped through the customer quality control so I am just giving them 3 stars since I am having good luck with the second pair...
