took a little to get used to as my heel pops out a little when I walk.

I am used to Birkenstock European sizing where I wear a 41. Here to wear with heavy socks I wear a 43 for warmth. To wear them around the house without socks they are very loose, but ok for just walking around. Wool is great. Synthetics tend to make my feet sweat.

High quality as expected. Very comfortable, but could use some additional arch support.

I recommend them highly for WARMTH and DURABILITY.
However, the sizing is somewhat difficult. I wear size 6 but one foot is a tad bigger (6 1/4). Five years ago, I gave my daughter size 6 slippers for her 5 1/2 size foot. She loved them, but they were more comfortable with added inner soles. She wore holes through them and they stretched quite a lot, which is when I started wearing them whenever I visited. They are wonderfully WARM and comfortable, but it is clear that they expand.
I got size 6 as well because I knew that they would be snug at first but stretch to fit better. At first, I worried that the size 6 was too small. After two weeks, they fit beautifully. I don't think that they will stretch much more but they might and then I will add inner soles. I also gave my husband a pair five years ago and his feet slide all over because they slide, but he loves them. He also added inner soles almost immediately.
Mine have the OUTDOOR soles which I really like. I wear them all day long indoors.

Watch for premature wear of the felt around the toes
The first pair I had were a dream they felt great they were convenient and I like everything about them but by four months the woman felt had separated on both shoes right at the area of the toes totally unacceptable for a four-month-old slipper that cost 140 bucks so I called L.L. Bean and true to their word they replaced the slipper with no cost at this point I've got about two weeks where on the new slippers and we will see if these hold up better I will chalk it up to a lemon and that is a one off occurrence if these were out the same way in three or four months
I guess I will drop the review reading down to a one or two but so far so good the fit is great they look good they feel good

I listened to an outside review and I measured my foot on a piece of paper. That indicated I need a 44 when I knew that would be too big as a ladie's 12 is always big enough as I wear an 11.5 or a 42 or 43. So I went with the 43 and it was huge. Too wide, too long. Order your usual size. For example, if you wear Dansko, use that usual size. I ordered the red and it is a cherry red, with a lot of pink in it, like a mulberry. I would have liked a bright apple red but not this red. If they had black I would get it in a 42. The 43 would fit with thick wool socks and be very warm indeed but with that color I still have to return them.

Interesting slipper. Initially I was wary of the looser fit (my last pair of slippers were shearling-lined and tighter fitting). They are comfortable with bare feet, perhaps not as warm as I expected. I find them a better fit and much warmer with socks. Overall I'm happy with the slipper, especially as I adjust to it.

The rubber soles aren't quite as comfy as soft bottoms but I knew they would get some outdoor exposure. Warm the minute I put them on. Hate to take them off.

I’m returning these slippers because I found them uncomfortable. They don’t have much structure, even for a slipper, my heel slipped too much, and they were too flat to be comfortable for me.

Slipper is true to the size i ordered, but is a bit too wide. So, I chose to wear wool socks in order to keep them on. Still fear they will stretch.

My main issue is that the sole of the shoe is not flat . It’s very rolls from side to side. Felt insecure walking . Otherwise a beautiful shoe, the wool felt is beautiful and thick.

These slippers felt clumsy at first but loved the rubber sole and its durability, but the upper did became very comfortable over time. Unfortunately time and usage showed its weakness in that the outside at the little toe became torn and mending wool obviously didn't work. Not impressed after a few years of ware for this price.

I am an older person (74) with a daily walking routine and lots of activity. The bottom of my feet have become sensitive in the metatarcial area. The Glerups provide little padding. My forefoot and heel needed more comfortable support.

I wanted to love these. I'm a US size 9. I first ordered size 40. When I tried them on, they fit like a dream and felt wonderful. The problem came when I tried to walk. There is a lip at the back of this slipper clog that rubs against the heel with each step. I tried to modify my walk so that the lip wouldn't rub. That didn't work.
I returned the size 40. I reordered and got a size 41. This time, the lip at the back heel still rubbed though not as much as before. Additionally, it didn't fit as well or as comfortably as the size 40. I returned the slippers for the second time.
If only that back heel lip weren't there, this would be a perfect shoe. I wish this were more like a true open back clog. I loved everything else about this shoe except for this one fatal flaw, the irritating back lip.
That being said, it's a beautiful shoe, it's well made, and the traction is excellent. If Glerup decides to make an open back clog without that lip, I will buy a pair in size 40.
Maybe this isn't an issue for other people, I simply couldn't adjust my gait to accommodate the back heel lip.

The right heel interior padding is off center and is causing major foot stress. My foot will break before this ever forms. I've owned my first pair of rubber bottom "boots" for five years, perfectly form fitted, they are my favorite. Sad, but have to return the new pair due to off construction. Bring back the taller ankle booties, please.

but in reality they're a little clunkier-looking close up and personal. I also wear an 8 Merrill, and these Glerups run a bit larger (not a huge deal, I'll wear heavy sox). The uppers are a thick felted material (~1/4") that looks warm, but they're new (too soon to tell how they'll wear), and I'm glad for the rubber sole. This is a different kind of clog for me. They're comfortable in the living room, but I'll have to get back to you after I wear them for a while...

I know these aren't supposed to be shoes but I'd like a little more support. Also, the slight lip at the heel drives me nuts, always sliding on and off.

I love Glerups and had two different styles but both wore out within a year (stretched out, hole forming on top of slipper, irregular wear on inner and outer soles). I wear slippers A LOT, but for the price, I thought that they should last longer, and couldn’t bring myself to buy yet a third pair. Maybe if I had washed them or wet them, at least the sizing would have fixed itself? But there was no fixing the wear on the slipper. Still bummed about it though. If you’re an infrequent slipper wearer or rotate slippers frequently, these *might* be perfect for you

The 37 is too short and the 38 is too long. I also found the rubber soles curved and slippery on my floors at home. Sent them right back. Very disappointed.

There were two problems for me with these Glerups: the heel was too slippy, and the sole felt rounded, instead of flat. Other than that, they were very nice.
