Customer Reviews The North Face Thermoball Traction Mule

These shoes are awesome! Wish they came in every color! Love this site!

I did not care for the material that wraps around the foot. It irritates the skin given its sewn, raised character. Not for me, going back. Thanks Zappos for your liberal return policy. Love you guys!

These are great slippers. My feet never are cold, even out in the snow, and the traction is amazing. The sizing runs 1/2 to one size small, but knowing that, you can get the right size. The shoe fits well and is comfortable. Warm and toasty! Oh, Zappos service is amazing!

Great! Almost too great. So warm that your feet will sweat and that's the only drawback. They're comfortable and cozy. Like little sleeping bags for your feet. Probably the killer feature is the soles. They're not just some no-slip coating applied to the bottoms. These are true soles. Easily able to handle outdoor trips to the mailbox or to go to the barn.

Wonderful shoes! I live in northern Michigan where we get lots of snow and ice half the year, and these are perfect for "street" use...good traction and insulation, but not so tall or hot that you can't wear them indoors at work or home. Love them.

I was hesitant to buy these mules because they seemed pretty large and I have a narrow foot. Thank goodness I decided to give them a try, because they are absolutely wonderful. The nylon upper and rubber sole is tough enough for light outdoor use. I especially like the heavy duty 2 inch border around the lower to protect the nylon from scuffing. These are nice features, but not critical for indoor slippers. I find the fit to be amazing, with the length right on. The width is forgiving because the design cradles your foot well for a variety of shapes. The insole is about an inch deep of memory foam, which helps allow a good fit for most. They are extremely warm and feel amazing. I will wear these babies until they fall apart, then buy another pair in a few years. For $50, the quality and materials are typical North Face. Top notch!

These are the best slippers ever. It is literally, like wearing the warmest, pillowiest cloud imaginable on your feet. That sounds crazy, but it is true. They even have excellent traction on the sole for wandering around outside. I hate to admit how much I wear these things.
