Customer Reviews Haflinger GZ Classic Grizzly

I love these shoes! I am replacing a pair I bought about 10 years ago. Yes, 10 years ago! I really only wear them around the house so there is not a lot of wear and tear on them. I have very high arches and as age sets my feet at times can feel a bit painful. I put these on and my feet are pain free! I love them and wish they came in more styles. The new pair of 39s are a bit larger than my last pair.

The arch support in these slippers (?) is outstanding! I originally received a pair of Ugg slippers for Christmas and loved the soft comfy lining, however, they had little support and said lining began to wear off within two weeks of wearing them. (And was completely gone in the heels after 3 weeks, but that's a different story...) Anyway, I returned the Uggs & ordered these... same price point. They're not as cozy as the Uggs, but they support my feet so much better. If someone could please combine the soft Ugg-type lining with the arch support in these Halflinger's, it would be the PERFECT slipper!

I love these Haflinger Classic Grizzly Clog/Slipper! I am writing this review after wearing these shoes indoors regularly for the last year. These have great arch support. They are warm but not too warm and have not stretched out at all! The cork lower has a few superficial cracks where your foot bends but the shoe itself hasn't lost its strength because of it. I will be buying these shoes for indoor and occasional outdoor use for the rest of my life!

I only wish the cork matched the color of the shoe.

Love these shoes. Had them when I was younger and so happy to be able to have them again. Would have given 5 stars but the sole separated from the shoe within a few days on wearing them. Zappos was amazing and sent me a new pair within 2 days. Unfortunately the sole has separated again after several months of wear- must be a glue issue. Not too big of deal but he older ones lasted for years without this problem. Overall I still love them and wear them everyday.

Bought these for house slippers to help with arch problem. Very supportive and no longer have arch problem. A bit stiff to start with, but will probably loosen with time.

Run large and a bit wide. I wear a women's 9/9.5 and the 40's where too big, especially with no socks.went with the giesswein true to size and snugger fit.

I love these shoes and will eventually buy another pair in another color. They are well made and feel wonderful. I think the shoe runs large. I ordered the smallest size but it is a bit too large. I wear the shoes with two pairs of socks and that does the trick.

I had high hopes for these as house shoes, but could not get the fit right. I wear an 8.5 in most shoes, sometimes a 9 in a running shoe, so I ordered the 39 (size 8). They were huge. Zappos quickly sent me a 38. Too short for my 2nd toe. I guess these are not made for long-toed girls. Bummer.

I am replacing an 10 yr old pair of Halfinger clogs, same style and in size 38. I am a US size 8. The sizing info says that a US size 8 should get the 39 so I got the 39. Unfortunately, it was way too big (even with thick socks I had a huge toe box and had a half of inch in the back) and had to get to the UPS store to return. I don't have narrow feet, either. But the design of these is a big improvement on my ancient pair I was replacing- the textured sole is a big improvement.

The Haflinger slippers seem to be well made they are comfortable my only complaint is that the band around the top is tight. My feet swell at times. I think as I wear the slippers more the cork will compress and give me more room. So far I am pleased with them.

I bought these about a year or two ago. I love them, they're wonderful, don't get me wrong. I have "bad" feet and can't really walk around the house barefoot as a result. I bought a 40 (am a size 9 normally) and although I don't remember how they fit at first (I might have stretched them out by wearing socks with them in winter) but now they're huge. I want to order another pair because these are now (that it's summer and too hot to wear them with socks - they're so warm already) too big, but don't know if I should go down a size. If anyone has thoughts, I'd be most appreciative.

Excellent quality. The soles are solid, not cushy, perhaps like a Birkenstock. These are a great shoe/slipper solution.

Like the way the shoe fits and looks.. Would buy again. as always fast, fast shipping by Zappos.

I have worn Stegman clogs for years but could not find my size in a USA store (local or online). I wear a standard width size 8 US shoe. A friend convinced me to try Haflinger clogs. The choice of colors, thick rubber soles, and thick felt tops are superior to Stegman. The width and length are 1/2 size larger than Stegman so the clogs do not fit as well...a sloppy fit without socks. I imagine the Haflinger clogs will fit better with winter socks. These clogs are not for walking in wet weather, however the nice rubber soles could be worn on damp surfaces. I am undecided if I'll purchase another pair. Let's see how they wear for 6 mos. By the way - the Zappos price was the best I've found in 4 months of searching.

Shoes were way too narrow. Wish there was a wider size then they would be perfect. Are the men's sizes much wider?

This size runs small. I ordered my regular Birkenstock European size. That was way too small, unless these shoe stretch to fit, but I do not want to take the chance. I love the shoes, I just do npt want to get stuck with something that does not fit.

These are one of the best in terms of comfort and arch support. I have really flat feet, so I would have loved much higher arch support than the classic Grizzly currently has. Overall a fantastic footwear. If it has higher arch support i would have given 5 stars.

I wear a women's size 11 shoe so I ordered the size 41. The 41 is too short so I need to return the shoes and get the size 42. I don't think the sizing is accurate for these shoes. Thank goodness for Zappos though with their free shipping and returns!! They make it painless.

I ordered up half a size and they felt slightly loosely. So I ordered down half a size. I normally wear a 9½, I ordered a 9 and a 10. The 9 was too short. I kept the larger ones and plan to wear them with socks in the winter. The shoes are very comfortable. I can wear them outside when needed, but mostly wear them in the house. They provide more arch support than the Uggs that I used to wear.

I got these as a gift for my hubby and he is very happy with them. He has very wide short feet and these have enough room for his toes. He says they are comfy. And they look cute! I deduct one star because the sole is stiff which doesn't bother him but keeps me from buying a pair for myself, too.

Good combination of shoe and slipper. Warm with arch support. My toe was hitting the boot on one foot and wet the wool and stretched the shoe.

The back of the left show had some loose threads that I had to cut. It is still a little rough.

This is my third pair of Haflinger clogs, but unfortunately with my varied feet issues they no longer work for me. They are very uncomfortable and with what little arch support there is it doesn't land in the right place.

I've had these German clogs before, long ago. These don't fit me - maybe it's a bad idea to buy shoes without trying them on.
