Fit a bit large, even though I ordered a 6 when I normally wear a 6.5. The main problem I have with these slippers is that they Smell Moldy, like they’ve arrived off a boat from some far-away import shop.

Wish these slippers had a full heel. Sure wasn't right for this senior as it made my heels slip.

After 6 months, these stretched out. The furry part around the opening rolls away from the suede. They flopped around and became unsafe to wear. My 3rd and last pair of these! All 3 did the same!

I thought they were going to have more of a back to them . Every step I take it feels like they are going to fall off . So I end up dragging my feet when I walk . I should have ordered the bootie ones . I'm back to wearing my old slippers .

I purchased the correct size according to the website as they were supposed to be true to size. My wife normally wears a 9 shoe so that is what I bought. They were way too long. I had to return them and was charged a $6.50 fee even though the reason for returning them was not my fault. I had also paid for expedited shipping to get them in a timely manner. I requested both of these charges to be refunded but was denied.

This slipper is very nice, except it has a very short back....it feels more like a slide than a slipper. It wouldn't stay securely on my foot. I waited for it on back-order, so I am very disappointed. I am returning it.

Lovely to look at, but so wide at the heel I nearly walked out of them. Sadly, I couldn't get to the Post Office within 30 days to return them.

Wife was excited to receive these for Christmas and they we're quickly ruined by food dropping on them which was unfortunate. Any way to get grease out of these?

I have worn and loved various Wicked Good slippers/moccasins for several years. I love the moccasins for their fit and support and wear them around the house daily (I work from home). This style does not provide the same support and it loosens up so much that I kept tripping on the stairs. I usually wear a 6.5, and the Wicked size 6 moccasins conform to my feet perfectly. I won't choose this non-moccasin again, it was actually dangerous.

Regularly a size 9, ordered just that but would recommend sizing up. They were so short my heel was hanging off the back. They are also SO TIGHT. I understand there is always a "work-in" time for new shoes/slippers, however, this was so tight it hurt the tops of my feet and after only 10 minutes with them on they left indentations all over my feet. I have returned and ordered a size 10 in hopes they will be better.

The size 9 was too big and the size 8 was too small. Half size unavailable.

I've been wearing LLBean's Women's Wicked Good Moccasins exclusively for several decades and love them. This year I decided to branh out and try the Squam Lake slippers. In picture they appear to be a full slipper, but wear like a flipflop with no heel . It's very easy to slide off the sides or back when I'm taking a few steps inside on carpet or hardwood. I can't imagine wearing them on the porch or to the mailbox. My ankles are sore after wearing them just for a few minutes.

Bought these as a Christmas gift and my wife was very excited but then someone dropped some pasta on the shoe and there doesn't seem to be anyway to salvage it which is a bummer.

The inner sole was too skinny. Which made me feel unsteady on my feet. That's all. They are good quality.

Very disappointed. They don't hug my feet like my old slippers did. I was so excited to get my new slippers but they don't have the LLBean comfort I've become used to.

I bought these in 2021 and expected to love them. However, while the lining under my feet was comfortable at first, it quickly began to bulge in some places and become kinky in others. With socks that might be ok, but I prefer no socks with slippers. Threw them away in 2023.

My least favorite of LLBEAN wicked good slippers. This slipper stretched out over time, did not hold its shape. I won't buy this style again. And LLB does not make the style I preferred any longer. I will wait till the fall and see if more styles return.

I had worn these slippers for several years and each pair was of good quality and lasted a few years. The last pair I purchased came apart at the seams, right after the return period ended. After several faithful years, I have switched to a different brand slipper.

Nearly $100 is a lot of money for a pair of slippers, unless they are high- quality and provide decades of toasty, comfortable wear. ((Cost-per-use!). That used to be the case with the Squam Lake slippers, but no longer. The slippers used to come with a special notice. advising new wearers that the slippers would initially feel tight until the shearling material inside shaped to one's foot. I don't remember seeing that notice With my recent pair, but if I had, it would have been oxymoronic or at least unnecessary, because there is about half as much of that previously Warm and enveloping material as there used to be. . Looking at the reviews, many people commented on the slippers are much l arger and looser than they used to be. Case in point.
I was hesitant to buy the slippers this year, because they just seem like too much money, but now I'm back to the drawing board of looking for a decent pair of slippers that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and doesn't leave me feeling ripped off. I would rather have paid the high price tag, and received slippers that felt great, worked great, and would last, but those days are behind us, sadly I know it's not LL Bean that is now losing sight of their values and commitment to offer high-quality reliable products. They just don't make things the way they used to! (needless to say, the "wicked, good" not-so-good LLBean slippers are going back)

Return and exchange fees.
Please please please purchase a full size down! Especially if not wearing socks in them or are in a half size. I'm a 10-10.5 in most shoes, 11 in some designer ones. Based on their estimate I was an 11. I ordered a 10 based on some reviews saying they are big plus I wanted to go not wear socks in them.
The fact that their algorithm says true to size must be misleading or wrong. It asks "how was length" but doesn't ask if that is your normal size. Only what size purchased. Anyone who buys and keeps it will thus be read as "true to fit".
They also do not even have product measurements. So how does their size estimator even work?! I would rather them post in cm or in inches the exact measurements so I can be better informed. LLB doesn't have any somehow.

I read the recommendation for sizing that stated I should size up for half sizes so I ordered the 8. Then the packaging said they should fit snug. I decided to go with another brand.

My rating is based on the sizing on these slippers. I ordered a size based on the size of my HOKAs as suggested on the LLBean's website. They were way too large! Not a huge surprise because my feet are narrow. However, I wasn't willing to pay the shipping costs for several rounds of purchase and return to find the right size.
Also, the back of the heel on this slipper is too low to stay on my foot. It would be flipping up and down with every step.
