Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Hand Sewn Slippers Flannel-Lined

I must have gone through ten pairs of these over the years. Only four stars because inevitably, the inner flannel lining wears through long before the outer crepe sole. It would be nice if they could upgrade the quality of the lining a bit.The pair I have on right now has almost imperceptible wear on the sole but both linings are completely worn through I have long narrow feet and they fit fine, so I suspect for many they will run narrow and you may want to go up a size. They are snug for the first week of so and then loosen up about a half size.

tried size 10 too big size 9 too narrow hopefully they stretch a lot

2nd pair. Work from home so wear them all day. Would be nice if the flannel lining lasted longer.

I have had these for a few years and the flannel does not hold up. I used fabric glue to fix the heels with some new cotton cloth. I just wish I could get new soles on them like the Bean boot.Wife got me a new pair at Christmas but have not worn them yet,like the old feel.

Excellent: long lasting and comfortable. I use it all day inside, and walking down to the street for newspaper and mail. Flannel lining is good, warm in winter, and yet fine in the summer. The one weakness, which it keeps it from a 5 star rating: the leather shoe laces are hard to keep tied, even with a a double knot. If that were improved, it would be a full 5 star. I reorder few years, even with the shoe lace problem.

This is a real winner for the price. I'm wearing a pair and have two pairs in reserve. Which brings up the one problem. The lining wears out long before anything else on these slippers. LLB used to carry this with the wool lining but don't anymore. They certainly wore longer but I personally experienced electrostatic discharge virtually every time I wore them. The flannel fixes that. If LLB can find a sturdier flannel lining then I would rate these as the best slippers on the market for the price. Over the years I've purchased other LLB slippers that were more costly but they really were no better than these.

I've had 2-3 pairs of these slippers. And I've given them to relatives. If it weren't for the fragile lining, one pair would have lasted me. I like the fit, and I like the crepe rubber sole for the occasional walk down to the corner to pick up the mail. but the flannel lining doesn't hold up, and eventually it wears down to the backing which isn't very comfortable. Put a leather lining in these shoes , raise the price a few bucks, and they will be perfect!

Really nice and well made slipper, but way too narrow. Unfortunately, had to return them

My husband is quite happy to have his new LLBean slippers. His previous pair lasted for a number of years; I hope he gets as many our of these. I prefer the previous color better; it was more or a cordovan rather than the current darker brown, but he's ok with the new color.

The shoes were of superior quality & materials, but the medium was too tight & I had to return them. Had they come in a wider size I would have exchanged them, but alas they only come in med width.

My husband wanted a new pair of bedroom shoes and we saw these on the LL Bean website. I ordered the shoes and received them when notified they would be delivered. When my husband tried them on they were about a half size too long. We had ordered this size thinking that would help with the width issue. My husband needs a wider width than what was available for this style. I returned the shoes for a size smaller and still have to use the D width. Hoping to receive the replacement in the next 1-2 weeks. I can't really give a good review until he gets the new pair.

very nice for the sale price but very stiff. they will break in. i read reviews about some people saying the lining wore out after 2 years. i NEVER had a pair of slippers that lasted more than 2 years at any price.

As with the elk slippers I also just bought, the sole marked up our wood floors. I finally replaced both pairs with my original double leather soled moccs. Should have known better. Got slippers. CL

This would be a great product if it came in half sizes.

These slippers are fine except the flannel lining inside deteriorates in about two years when the rest of the slipper is still perfect. This is my third pair and, if these do the same thing, it will be my last. Otherwise, they are warm and comfortable.

In all my years of buying similar products from you, my consistent compliant has been, once the laces come untied, God himself could not keep them re-tied. Seriously. I have resorted using small zip ties to keep the laces tied. Ridiculous right.? Obviously I like the product but this laces issue is maddening.

But the leather was slightly dried out. I had to use Lexol to moisturize them so the leather wouldn't crack. It's hard to find decent slippers these days, but these fit the bill. I was tired of buying cheap slippers every year only to have them fall apart by the end of the season. At my age, I deserve a decent pair of slippers. The no-slip soles are a bonus for older people or anyone who doesn't like slipping on slick surfaces. These are not cheap by any means, but they are worth the money so far.

After wearing out my previous pair of handsewn flannel line slippers I ordered a replacement pair of the same size. I find that the left foot pinches my toes I am hoping that the leather will, with some time, form to that foot.

Rawhide laces just won't stayed tied, is there a way they can be glued or a different lace used that won't come apart causing me to trip on my own laces. this happened at least 4 times one day, tried wetting the laces, double knotting but they keep coming apart. HELP, otherwise I love the moc slippers

Great product but dogs love to chew on it

Great quality but they run small: a little small in length and quite narrow. Had to be returned. Recommend ordering a size up.

These are pretty nice to wear around the house. They do keep your feet warm. They're just a bit too narrow for me. That's all the bad.

Well made and handsome product. That said, I'm am a true 9 1/2 notwithstanding that most of my footwear is size 10 with a very few (e.g., Bean loafers) size 9. To be sure, I ordered a 9 and a 10, hoping one would fit. No such luck: too small and too large. Both back. You suggest half sizes should order up,. Good advice, usually. But not always.

This is my second pair in about ten years. The first pair was great. This pair has a part of the crepe sole in front of the left one peeling up. Looks like the second row of stitching cut right through. I'll glue it. No big deal. Must have gotten past the inspector.

Great slippers but the rawhide laces always come untied and it is hard to tie them the way they were when first received. Please improve.
