So comfortable! Not for over $100, I would expect the seems to last longer than a month!

This is my second pair of Haflinger slippers. Yes, they are expensive, but they are so worth it. I love these. I wear them every day from fall all the way to spring. I get sweaty feet very quickly but these manage to keep my feet warm, comfortable and not sweaty at all. Highly recommend them.

Yes! comfortable, supportive arch, cork sole, soft wool upper all met my demands for a comfortable supportive slipper around the house. Nice neutral look and 39 for my usual size 9 foot worked.

Nice looking and comfortable (or they will be when I get them in the correct size). Do not trust the Zappos shoe conversions but trust the standard conversion (i.e., size 8 is a size 38, not size 39 as listed).

I wear this shoe as the world's best house slipper. I have flat feet, which causes my feet to roll inward and my second toe to pile up on my big toe. This does not happen with these because the cork sole is supportive and puts the missing arch in my foot. That said, the sizing is inconsistent. I agree with the commenter who said that. I bought a size 40 at a shoe store, which fit perfectly. However, the size 40 I ordered online was too short and the 41 I returned it for is too long. This is disappointing when I thought I had such a great solution for flat feet. Meanwhile I keep wearing my raggedy originals, which are still awesome. I take my work shoes off and put these on in the evening. It feels as good as a glass of wine!

I've had my Haflingers for at least six years now and they look good as new. other felted shoes have developed weak spots and eventually needed to be replaced, but these slippers have held up and haven't broken or pilled. They are great to wear around the house and I occasionally wear them outside and to run a quick errand. A great shoe/slipper.

I wear a size 39 in Birkenstocks. After reading many of the reviews, I decided to order both a 38 and 39 in this shoe/slipper. I ended up keeping the 38 because the 39 was simply too large. This is my first experience with Haflinger. I have always stayed with Birkenstock because their arch support is in perfect alignment with my feet. But, Birkenstock doesn’t offer a shoe/slipper with a felted wool foot bed (they do offer a shearling foot bed, but I didn’t want to go that route because the shearling mats down over time). The arch support in these Haflingers are similar to Birkenstock, so I’m glad about that. The toe box in the Haflingers aren’t quite as wide at Birkenstock’s (I plan to wear these as slippers without socks); reviewers have mentioned that the Haflingers stretch a bit over time, so I’m looking forward to a bit more width in the toe box. These shoes/slippers appear to be made of high quality materials, and look like the workmanship is faultless. A curious thing: I also tried “Kris,” “Lacey,” and the “Classic Grizzly.” One of my feet is slightly wider than the other and I noticed that the toe box on these Leather trimmed Grizzlies had a tiny bit more room in the toe box width compared with the other Haflingers. As always, Zappos’ customer service is the gold standard for all businesses. They have earned my loyalty; I don’t shop for shoes anywhere else.

Warm, reliable old friends. As expected, these fit loosely on the foot. They provide all the warmth and arch support for my Plantar Fasciitis that I've come to expect from Haflinger. They last for many seasons. Love them! Would rather have the sole all the black color, but these are fine. (Tried the cheaper Stegman clog and the fronts detached from the soles before the first season was up!)

Just got these. Can't wait to wear them! I love the look of this shoe. I had to order one size down. I had to send back a size 6 & get a size 5. I normally wear a 6.5 but the 6 was about a half a size too big.

I compared these to my 15 years old Haflinger's (back when you could get a women's size, not "unisex), and they just look and feel like boats. Very disappointing that there is no narrow. Not sure why Haflinger assumes that men generally have wider feet - and that it's fine for the rest of us to break our neck trying to walk in these things. I'm guessing economy!

I have been a devoted Haflinger wearer for over 20 years and this is the first time I have been disappointed. While I loved the pink, they did not feel the same as my previous 10+ pairs. The right clog was cut larger than the left and they did not come up as high on the top of my foot. In addition, the sole and arch felt less...thinner, cheaper and not as much support. These are going back! Thanks, Zappos for a having a great return policy.

I love Viking sandals...almost like Birkenstocks but cuter, more cushion and less expensive.

I wear a 39 and or a 40 in a closed shoe with socks. They confirmed to what I have worn with Birkenstock’s. These shoes have the best most comfortable footbed ever! I had to return because the upper band hit right across my deteriorated joint where the 4th metatarsal meets the cuboid. I’m so sad they didn’t work out. I loved the feel of the wool

This is my 3rd pair. My winter slippers. Couldn't live without them. Real sole means I can step out to get the paper or go to the corner store, though primary purpose is comfortable, cozy, slip-on house shoe. They have the look of an orthopedic shoe...but who cares? They feel great!

This slippers have excellent support and feel more like shoes than slippers, but they were comfy right away, and are getting more comfortable the longer I wear them.

Super comfy Haflinger fit. Will always be my go-to shoe! These work great in the winter with thick socks because the fit is a a bit roomier in the toe bed than the classic Grizzly.

I have often admired these clogs and have finally decided it was time for me to try a pair. I like comfort shoes and these do not disappoint. I bought these for cool fall weather. However, it has not yet been cool enough for me to wear them all the time. They are soft and cozy yet supportive. I like the cork and wool combination. These are natural materials and I like that. Feet can breathe! They fit well as expected and I predict they will be my "go-to" everyday shoes as the weather turns cooler in the coming months. Happy with my selection!

Love love love these shoes!! I already own a pair I use as slippers in my house. I plan to wear these out. The reviews say that the soles are fine —just don’t get wet. I have plantar fasciitis and these are the best shoes. Stylish too!

I adore my pair, so I bought my husband his first pair for Christmas. He says they are the most comfortable shoes he has ever owned and he wears them all the time. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase!

This is my third pair of shoes this style and I love them. My only problem is that with the leather trim, they're not loosening up as much as the ones I have without trim and with the ribbon trim. No problem, though. I just don't wear socks! I figure they'll loosen up eventually. In terms of size, I knew what to order because I already had the other two pairs.

My son has a pair and recommended these. I bought these to wear inside instead of slippers. Great arch support and very comfortable. They fit perfectly with my cotton athletic socks but a are little large with thinner dress socks.

Just received these for Christmas, found they are a little snug but will stretch to conform to my foot. I am hoping that these will hold up in snow. These are probably my 6 pair. All my others with the exception of one pair have held up well in the snow.

These shoes are my husband's all-time favorites for wearing around the house, but they can also be worn outdoors in nice weather. The leather trim makes the heel feel a little bit firmer than the regular trim, which he likes.

I have always worn a size 38 in Haflinger clogs and I own 3 pairs that I bought from Zappos a few years ago. This new pair is much too small. I see now that the sizing states that a 38 is a U.S. size 7. It used to be a U.S. size 8. Does anyone know when this changed?
