Something I really like about these shoes is how comfortable they are! I also enjoyed being able to use UGG's shoe size calculator feature (don't know the actual name). Although I already knew my size because I had tried on the shoe at a store, I decided to test the online feature and heyyy it was accurate : )) ok the one bad thing I noticed about this product is that the color of the slipper is inaccurate above the shoe size of 7. So I noticed at the store that all the slippers in size 8,9,and 10 ( at least for the Dakota color) were much more darker than the rest/ the color displayed on the website. Indeed, even when I ordered an 8 online the color is still darker compared to smaller sizes. The guy at the store said that exposure to the sun would fade the dark tint but i have yet to see if that will be the case. I guess I'll add another review in a month or so and update my review to include if this was true. Overall, I would recommend this shoe but just warn people with a shoe size of 8 or above to keep in mind that the color of the slipper may be darker.

I had to ship them back after a month because the entire front area tore and were unwearable. But when I got them back, they were not really the same Chestnut color but a lighter shade. But anyway, these are pretty good so far, very comfortable :)

I tried to wear them for 15 minutes, sitting down, and they were uncomfortable. They were really tight on the sides of my feet. Looking at the reviews, nobody said they ran narrow, and I have average feet, so I thought they'd be heavenly. I don't want to wait to see if they stretch out, so I am returning them. They also were a little too big in size. I always wear an 8, I ordered and 8, but they don't come high enough on my heel to stay on. I have 3 pairs of Ugg boots...all size 9, because I order a size up. These just don't work for me.

I absolutely love these slippers but I am so annoyed by the laces. On the positive side, they are comfortable, warm, stylish, and save my knees from walking barefoot on hardwood floor. The only downside is the laces keep coming untied, in fact they do not stay tied! It is annoying and I constantly step on them. Friends who have the same slippers told me to tie each of the laces in knots to solve this problem.

I wear them every day around the house and love them. I know there are sizing concerns. I'm a size 7 usually and got and wear the 7 because I knew the sheepskin would wear down over time. I don't really wear them with socks, because I wear them around the house. I love them!

These are really warm and hug the foot which is so nice, but two "negatives": 1)the strings don't stay tied which is frustrating and 2) when I wore them out to run a quick errand, I definitely looked like I was out in my house shoes. Wouldn't reco outdoor wear for those reasons. Otherwise, really comfortable and cute with my PJs.

I purchased this shoe Sunday night and received it Wednesday morning, thanks to Zappos' amazing service. I give the shoe itself a seven out of ten. Although it is extremely comfortable, walking in these shoes for a long period of time makes my feet wobble on the soles. Overall this shoe is very stylish and a great buy!

I am a size 7 but when I first slipped this shoe in straight from the box, my toes were jammed and it was extremely tight. I would not suggest going up a size because it could just be the fur making the shoe seem tight and so you will break it in.

Very narrow - These slippers are cute and very warm but very narrow. I wear a normal-width shoe, but my feet are on the wide side. When I put these slippers on, they were tight around my toes but slipped off the back of my heels when I walked. I had to return them, unfortunately.

My girlfriend was looking greedily at my new lavender slipper Uggs. Beautiful color. Tie sewn together so it wouldn’t come undone. I know the lining is pure wool. Friend said, “They will never fit you!” (She wears an 8 1/2 and I wear a 9. Nine in an Uggs always fits me unless made in China. I checked the tag. These were made in The Philippines.) Worried. My foot had to be forced inside due to the front width being narrow. I understand Uggs sometimes need to be worn a bit to loosen up. I could wear this pair for a year every day and they would be tight. Being the owner of 15 pairs of Uggs, I know exactly where the buyer stands. Since Uggs moved their manufacturing out of New Zealand and into China or other Asian countries it’s hit or miss whether the wool is true authentic Ugg wool and the sizing is haphazard. Often too small with one Ugg differently sized than the other foot. I’m an on-line ordering junkie and broke my promise which I will share. Always buy your Uggs in the store and try them on first to save the disappointment and effort of having to return. But you can make a smaller-footed friend very pleased when you’re willing to gift immediately. Dratz!

Today I tried on a pair of Dakotas in two different colors, same size. I was shocked that one pair was much wider, loose and fit kind of sloppy unlike the other. The wide one was made in China and the comfortable one was made in Vietnam. The same size and style! Beware!

I'd originally gotten a pair of very soft ugg moccasins a few years ago, but they seem to've been discontinued. Ordered these as an alternative. They were delivered promptly, but I had to return as the leather was not soft and the shoes were too small. I ordered a size 8, but they were not correctly sized. I understand that you have to give time for your footprint to press the shearling into form, but it was a struggle to work a foot into the shoe and they were very tight.

The lining of these Ugg slippers is nowhere near as good quality as it used to be. Now, the lining just gets weirdly matted and flattened down into a hard inner sole very quickly. I’m not comparing to the very first Uggs, which used to have the sheepskin lining, but I am comparing these exact same Ugh slippers I had in past years - the synthetic lining used to be much higher quality than it is now. The fluffy insole used to stay softer and nice for longer. It used to feel much nicer against my bare feet. Now it feels synthetic and cheap. The outer quality seems just as good and I had now issue with stitching so far. Now, I’m not convinced these slippers are worth the price.

I'd worn Dakotas for decades but no more, sadly these were my last Uggs after having bought many styles. Purchased these Dakotas in 2017 & by 2020 the insole & all linings were completely worn through with just indoor wear; previous Dakotas had lasted me about 10 years with new insoles at 5 years. The quality decline began when Uggs changed manufacturing locations: Uggs are no longer the quality footwear they once were. I switched to LL Bean sheepskin slippers & thus far am getting better quality at a lower price for the exact same type slipper.
I'd also recommend:
LL Bean, Naot, Clarks, Danner

My last pair of slippers from UGG lasted 10 years. These are not the same. They are uncomfortable and fall apart. DO NOT BUY!

The slipper were an ugly pink unlike what it showed on the internet AND the slippers were so huge they would not even stay on my feet. Certainly not like usual Ugg quality.

I am using my new UGGS as slippers. Once I determined my correct size I have only purchased UGGS as my comfy shoes!

Tough on sizing. For reference I wear an 8 in Asics, Lucky, and Sam Edelman, and I wear a 7.5 in Vans, Chuck Taylor, and Frye. I wear a size 7 Ugg in the Classics, Ansley and Dakota. I have tried Uggs in size 8 and find that they slip off my heel at first try on. The Ugg 7 is snug on me, but breaks in and molds to my feet. I have gotten 2 different pair that were way to tight and had to be returned, the sizes are not always consistent.

I had waited months and months for the Espresso Dakota slippers to come back in my size. Well worth the wait! Espresso is the perfect color name as they are a lovely dark, rich brown. Wear any one of the 3 pairs constantly. Only complaint is that all three colors in the same size have fit differently. Black ones are overly roomy, pewter color fits more snug and definitely shorter and the espresso color is longer and somewhat loose.
