Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Slippers Venetian

Bought these slippers in Nov '25. Was very excited as I always wanted a pair for myself (my husband has had several pairs over the years). Love the color and feel, but noticed that the foot was fairly narrow. I assumed that as I wore them they would stretch a little to conform to my foot but they still haven't and now they feel like they're pinching my foot. I ordered up a size per recommendation, but they're still too narrow across the balls of my feet. It's a shame but I hardly wear them now.

I received these slippers from my daughter as a Christmas present 2-3 years ago. I do wear them only during the winter. They are warm and comfortable. However, for the price LLBean charges they are poor quality. Where my heels and toes are, the lining is gone. And where the slippers join the sole, they have separated in several places from the sole. The worst is the left slipper where the sole has not just separated but is torn. I wear these slippers only indoors!

I was disappointed. Have purchased before, this slipper is no match to the quality of my other slipper from a few years ago. It's a bit tight, inside material is disappointing. I don't think I recall the quantity of fluff was odd. My older slipper is still good so will be returning the new edition.

I have purchase the LLBean moc slippers for decades- always very happy with them . However, in recent years they changed the soft leather ties with a stiff one that I found untied itself all the time. So this year I ordered the Venetian. The quality of the sheepskin in not the same. In the old slippers, the high density of hair that made the fleece resilient and firm. In the new one, it is silky and soft, but not supportive. The enclosed note tells you that the slippers will be tight at first but the fleece will compress over time. Not needed, since these are already feeble and are already packed to nothing. With no store nearby, I will keep these only because I have inserted sheepskin insoles from Kiwi Sheepskin in NZ that make them wearable. So disappointed!

I've had LL Bean slippers my entire life. Typically I replace them when the foot bed wears out, but never because the stitching holding the shoe together completely failed. It is still one piece of thread, so I could have gotten it caught on something and ripped it. No, the thread pulled out right through the leather and the glue against the rubber wasn't strong enough to keep it together. They are about 2 years old, so far beyond the return time. I miss the time when this company stood by the quality and helped when it was their product that failed

I bought these slippers over a year ago. I was very disappointed how fast the inner lining went flat. This made the slipper too big for me. You can no longer return item's that don't stand up to the LL Bean quality.

I really wanted to like these slippers, but the fit is very uncomfortable. The heel is a bit big and the toe box is very narrow. I followed the sizing suggestion and ordered my regular shoe size (8) but my toes are squished up against the front and sides of the shoe. I know they are supposed to be snug at first, but I cannot see how they will ever conform comfortably to my feet. Very disappointed.

Insole of one slipper does not fit properly. There is a lump which is uncomfortable.

The shape of the tie box was uneven on both slippers. I returned them at the store.

I ordered the same size I ordered last year and they are quite a bit smaller, which is frustrating because now I'm going to need to find some different slippers or mail them back, pay return shipping, and see if the next size up will work. Loved last year's slippers and would really appreciate consistency in sizing!

I wanted to love these slippers. And I think I would've if they fit. I didn't see any advice to size up when ordering and they were VERY tight. That coupled with non-free returns (didn't get an option to exchange) likely means I won't try again. Disappointed.

I'm disappointed. Since they're priced nearly the same as Ugg's, I expected some of the same quality. Regardless of how wonderfully cushy they are, they lack any support for the foot. I mean none. My flat feet nearly roll over. The furry lining is cozy, but there's little cushion for walking on the floor. I don't dare walk to the mailbox! I don't recommend this purchase.

Not a good substantial slipper. Sent back. Sole was very thin, felt like I was walking in bare feet. Wanted a better sole that I could go outside with for a short period. To get mail or get something from the garage. Would never hold up to that. Could get something from a bargain store that would be better. Suede and shearling was nice, but not a good sole or cushioning. Not worth the price. Would have given zero stars except for the suede and shearling.

I bought 2 pair, Sienna brick & charcoal blue. They both quickly stretched out on the sides where I can no longer safely wear them. The light color also looks dirty altho they have never been worn outside. On the plus side, they were quite comfortable at first, sole looks great, no wear. As this stretching doesn't occur on any other shoe item I own, this is specific to the slippers and not my feet/manner of walking. Very disappointed & do not recommend. Given the price, they should last longer than 2 years.

Slippers were too big, even though I ordered the size that worked well before.

I have bought LL Bean products for many, many years now and I have to say that this iconic, comfy slipper is not the same quality product. There is much less support in the heel, really the whole bottom of the foot, and wearing them since just after New Years, the slipper bottom feels flat and thin. Yes, the upper is real suede, the inside is wool and the outside is rubber, but I ask...what happened to the inner sole of this slipper? It feels like nothing is there! This comfy slipper is very uncomfortable...I put my old worn out Wicked Good slippers back on. There is actually a little more padding left for the bottom of my foot than my new slippers offer. Not happy at all, considering the price of this product. I am going to return them and find something else at another store. Really disappointed.

Pros: Run narrow. (I have narrow feet.) Cozy. Cons: Not cushioned. Bought these because my old go-to of the Wicked Good mocs have undergone a decline in workmanship/comfort. I was unsure about the Venetians in the store, where I immediately noticed a lack of footbed cushion, but got them anyway because they run narrow. At home, they were no better on my hardwood and tile floors. They feel best only when sitting and doing nothing. I'll likely be returning these soon and continuing a frustrating search for a quality, supportive, cushioned slipper that doesn't fall off my heels.

I really wanted these but was so disappointed in the fit. Now I have to return...

I've gotten these slippers every year for years and really love them. This year one slipper is flipped up and the other down. There is no way to make it stay down and it's driving me crazy. These are brand new.

So disappointing. To amend a previous review, I had to buy another pair (a kitchen spill ruined the pair I bought a month ago) and its true what the other reviewers have said about terrible quality problems with these slippers. I've tried three different pairs now and they all do not fit. Heel slips out, some pairs made wider or bigger than others. No consistency.

Following up from my previous review, I am so disappointed. I unexpectedly had to throw out my first pair of slippers because I spilled something on them. I ordered two more pairs and I can't believe it they don't fit?! The heel slips out. How could the first pair be perfect and then I try two other pairs and the padding is flat and matted down. They seem to be wider and the inside padding is matted down. I can't believe the quality issues. They also had a chemical spray smell when they arrived like they had been returned a few times. I am beyond disappointed with L.L. Bean. Please make a better fitting slipper with consistent quality sizing.

I bought these to replace my previous pair of Bean slippers that lasted 5+ years. This hole began less than a year after purchasing. I am disappointed, and wondering if I need to look elsewhere for quality slippers. That last longer.

I ordered my size and it was way too big. Could be worn with thick socks I guess. I also didn't like the look of them. I thought they were ugly. Wasn't really fond of the look when I ordered but figured I'd give them a try. Nope!

No help from store when I called about the ' fit'. Very disappointed.

I really wanted to like these slippers but the quality was not what I expect from L L Bean. The fit was so strange. I am returning them.
