Nice support, very comfortable. Have heel issues, and can't walk around in bare feet. Nice and cozy.

I love these slippers! I work from home and spend a lot of time standing (personal chef), so these are a great alternative to clogs or Crocs. I really feel that wearing these has helped reduce the pain in my heel from plantar fascia, and also helps reduce arch pain. I wish they came in other (relatively) cute styles, and I will look for a sandal version this summer!

These slippers are adorably fashionable and yet comfortable. Instant relief for my painful feet. I suffer from plantar fasciitis, so these slippers are the first thing on in the morning and the last thing off before I go to bed. Because of the hard sole I can even wear them outside and still feel and look great! I love these and will order more of the Orthaheel products.

I find these slippers very comfortable. They may be a tiny bit wide, but with socks, they fit fine. I have a heel spur, and they have a solid bottom, which helps with the discomfort.

Have had these for about a week now. They have really helped my fascia. So comfortable from the start. True to size. I like the adjustable sides to make them fit a bit more comfy when needed.

These are wonder slippers. I love all the Orthaheel products and was hoping they would make a comfortable slipper. It's impossible to find house shoes with this kind of support and still feel soft and warm. Good job. And of course Zappos is always great.

This slipper is the most confortable slipper I have ever walked in. The color and design looks nice and the thick sole makes it as comfortable as a regular shoe. This is invaluable to one who has foot problems. These are well worth the price.

Do I love these slippers? Yes! Warm and supportive with great arch support. I no longer feel like I am injuring my feet at home around the house. Seems true to size and are adjustable in case you want to wear big socks in colder weather.
Brands I'd also recommend: Any Orthaheel product.

I have been looking for a slipper that has actual arch support and these are perfect! The adjustable strap allow for bare feet or socks. I loved them so much I ordered in other colors.

Best slippers I have ever worn and well worth the price. I wish I had found them much sooner. They are sturdy and I know they'll last longer than any other slipper I've worn before. They are more comfortable than my shoes and in just a week or so of wearing these slippers, my plantar fascia seems to have improved. The packaging information said to wear them a few hours at a time until you get used to them and you will find that to be true. But, be patient, your feet will thank you and you'll want to wear them 24/7. I love this color, but wish I'd also bought a pair in black to wear without anyone knowing I'm out in slippers. They are extremely comfortable and if I could get away with it, I'd wear them everywhere! They are a bit wide for my foot, but if I wear them with socks, they work perfectly.

These slippers are great. They took a little getting used to as they are more rigid than regular slippers, but the extra support helped relieve the pain of my recent bout with plantar fasciitis. If you have high arches and suffer from plantar fasciitis, these are a must have.

Love these! I have plantar fasciitis, and my doctor said I had to be in my sneakers even at home when on my feet (for the support). I found these after many searches in stores, online, even asking my doctor. They have great arch support and foot bed - perfect for my plantar fasciitis and over pronating feet!

My podiatrist said I have to wear shoes with insoles all day, but since I don't like wearing shoes in the house, I bought these slippers with arch support built in. They're great! They loosened up rather quickly, but there is a velcro strap to tighten it back in so my feet don't slide back and forth.

Based on other reviews, I thought these would be perfect for my plantar fasciitis. Unfortunately they seem kinda stubby and wide and the arch support was way too much for me. I have low arches, so these were not suitable for my feet.

These slippers are great if you have bone spurs or plantar fasciitis. They are pretty firm at first but once you break them in they are more comfortable then the custom orthodics my doctor gave me for my shoes. I wish I could wear them to work! They do hold odor though and are not machine washable.

Needed supportive slipper due to reoccurring arch issues. Sort of "grandma-ish" but do the trick. That's why I chose the leopard and had to try to spice them up! These have really worked well in keeping my feet in better shape instead of going barefoot after work as I love to do. Great support especially with the Velcro strap to tighten down for a more narrow foot.

Fairly comfortable if you require decent arch support, but the foot bed does not seem to have as much support as the Orthaheel sandals.

These slippers are warm, comfortable and roomy with the same great support you always get from Orthaheel. But it does come with a little downside. The slippers are a little slippery and you must be a little more careful not to get off balance due to the soft fabric. There is no strap to keep them snug to your foot and you wouldn't want that anyway. I still love them!

Based on other reviews I decided to size down. Good call because they fit perfectly. There is one velcro adjustment on the side of the slipper for wider/narrower feet. The arch support and stiff sole do take awhile to get used to. At first I didn't like wearing them after a few hours because they seemed to take more effort walking in them. I don't know how long it took but eventually that problem went away and they are the slippers that I always reach for when my legs or feet hurt because I know they're going to help. The main problem I have is that after a few washes the skin on the inside is coming off. I think they should've lasted a lot longer. They're not even a year old but because of the lining I already need a new pair and I am debating about trying another brand. I'm going to do more research to see if this is a common problem for this brand before deciding.

I liked the styling and the material and support, but the toe box was too low and was not comfortable, so I returned them. If they could be redesigned with more room vertically for the toes, I would buy them.

Nice shoe, but uncomfortable. Hurt my feet on arch area. Seemed to help my heel pain but just too much "shoe" for trying to get around the house. Thanks for the good customer service - will keep trying to find a houseshoe that doesn't hurt.
Brands I'd also recommend: Easy Spirit wasn't real expensive, didn't hurt my feet either.

I sent these slippers back. I suffer from heel spurs and the arch was too uncomfortable and would take too long to get used to. I need instant comfort after teaching on my feet all day.
