Customer Reviews Giesswein Veitsch

I wish they fit. They're too small and I ordered 1/2 size up. Great support and comfortable if they fit right. I love the color too.

These were wonderful slippers. Unfortunately they are very true to size and because I am a true 7.5 (American), I could not wear them.

I chose this pair/style/brand to replace the 2nd pair of Halflingers that fell apart before a year was ended. I have high arches and so do these. I really liked and needed the felted wool of the Halflingers, but the boiled wool of these are just as warm. I live in the Pacific Northwest where we have some real nice Winters. The soles of these are much better than the soles of the Halflingers that did really good in the ice and snow. These actually grip much better and the rubber sole wraps up just high enough to keep my feet away from snow and water. My only 'issue - the back of the shoe seems to 'rotate?' in when I walk. It doesn't seem to cause a problem as the heel just 'slips' right back into place. Am hoping this fixes itself after a week of walking. Other than that they are just as comfortable as the Halflingers. This review after 3 days of wearing.

I bought this for my husband. At first the arch felt a little too aggressive for him, but after wearing the shoes around the house that night and the next morning, he said they were just perfect. In fact, he asked me to order a second pair in a different color. By the way, I ordered a pair for myself and I too love them. However, the ladies ran a full size smaller. With Zappo's help and their wonderful return processes, I was able to make the change and I also have a pair.

Gave this as a gift to my sister---she tried them on right away and kept them on the rest of the night. GREAT arch support, great style and great comfort.

Love them. Supportive, cozy slippers

I normally wear a 38 and after reading the reviews, I ordered a 39. I just had to return for a 40!

I first ordered this slipper in size 40 because I usually wear size 9 and they were too short. However they fit my daughter perfectly so I ordered size 41 for myself and they are perfect. We are both very happy with them, especially the great arch support. They are really worth the price.

These shoes are exactly what I was looking for. I wear a size 6 in most every shoe an I ordered the 37 and they fit perfectly. The arch is exactly in the correct place. If I were to wear socks, I would need a larger size, perhaps, but I don't ever intend to wear socks with these shoes.

Once i took off my socks, fit was perfect. i find them very comfortable to wear with excellent arch support. I am very happy with my purchase.

I loved these shoes but unfortunately, I am between sizes so the comfort, although a possibility, wasn't there for me - a problem with many shoes lately. Definitely - if they had fit my feet, I would have kept them!

Fit was good - I ordered a size up after reading other reviews - glad I did (I normally wear a size 10 - got the 11). I can't wear a sock with it - would be too tight - but I live in FL, so I don't mind. Very comfortable slipper and love that I can wear it outside.

I really liked the arch support and quality of this slipper. My skin is just too sensitive to the wool. Had to return.

I wear a 41 in these shoes and the fit was perfect. They do stretch out a tiny bit so its perfect. I have a flat foot and the support in these shoes is great, I wear them around the house all the time. This is my second pair of Giesswein shoes.

Love these shoes! I bought them to wear as slippers, but they felt too firm and supportive as slippers, so I kept them to wear as shoes & I couldn't be happier with them. I normally wear size 11, so I bought the 42. They felt a little small, so I ordered the 43 & they fit perfect. I can wear then with or without socks. I then bought the Abend to wear as slippers and I love them also.

I wear 10.5 narrow and usually buy size 11 shoes and add Powerstep Pinnacle Maxx inserts. These already have a really nice orthotic-type of footbed, however, and are a bit narrower than usual 11M shoes. Anyway, when I compared them to the fit of some Keen boiled wool clogs (with my inserts) that look very similar, these win for looks but the Keens somehow stay on my feet just a wee bit better. Plus the Keens cost about half of what these do. They appear to be seriously high quality wool clogs, and if I was looking for a clog to wear with socks, I'd choose these, as they are beautiful and would work well for that. But I've been looking for some sort of an orthotic slipper that I could wear with bare feet, and I just can't make these work due to my skinny feet.

The Veitsch is just an excellent slipper in every way. Superb quality in and out as you would expect. Wool makes them warm but not hot and your feet can breathe. You won't be disappointed. Only comment: I normally wear a 43 or perhaps a 44 but with these I needed a 45 to not have my heel extend past the "heel cup".

These are just wonderful. Warm, supportive and easy on/off. I have bunions and hammer toes and the toe box is both wide and soft. Very comfortable. They also look great. Good enough to wear outside, and the soles seem to be sturdy and grippy. I got the light grey marled ones.

These are fantastic slippers, I don't know how I got though past winters without them. A few years ago I tried to find a slipper that had great arch support and was easy to get on and off. That search failed. I tried again this year and found this slipper and it's exactly what I've always wanted. The arch support is excellent, it's as good as my regular shoes with orthotic insoles. They're warm without being hot. I wear them with socks and at first I was worried that my socks would get bunched up under my foot when I put them on, but now that I've been wearing them for a week I've found this is not a problem, if at first my sock is a bit bunched, it quickly fixes itself after I take a couple steps. I found the color of the slippers I got was a bit different than the color in the picture on my computer screen. The Ocean blue slipper was brighter blue in real life and the gray slipper was a darker gray.

These are the most comfortable slippers I’ve ever owned. They have pretty significant arch support and the motion of walking feels easy and fluid. Highly recommend. They do however run a bit small. I am a U.S. women’s size 8. And I had to reorder these for the size eu 40. So consider ordering up a full size to be safe.

I normally wear somewhere between an 8 1/2 and 9 normal to wide shoe. These slippers in size 9 fit me perfectly. I bought them to replace the Orthofeet slippers I’ve had for several years. The old slippers’ Velcro closure no longer stays closed, so I wanted a fixed opening for my foot to slide into. The new slippers fit the bill. Regarding plantar fasciitis, the new slippers offer excellent arch support in the right place. The wool is cozy too. I have noticed the opening has relaxed slightly, but the slippers still stay snugly on my feet. So far, so good.

husband loves them. his new go-to slippers every day all day!

I wear size 13 in most shoes; these fit right in size 14. Comfy and warm.

Best slippers ever. My last pair were 5 years old, worn almost everyday, rubber sole was getting a little worn so I bought myself an early Christmas present. Old pair is still wearable..

After reading the other reviews about the slipper running a bit small so I ordered 2 pair and kept the larger size. I wear a 10 or 10 1/2 depending on the shoe. I ordered a 41 and 42. I kept the 42. This is my first pair of this brand and I am very happy with them. The color and style are wonderful.
