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

I love them! They are so comfortable and attractive that I often forget their slipper status and wear them out and about. The materials are top drawer and the style is timeless. My only issue with them is the wear on the sole on the underside of the toe. My wife pointed out the wear and the stitching break showing on the toes--perhaps a feature of how I walk--but I would buy them again!

Received my slippers quickly but was disappointed when I put them on. They are a great product but were too narrow! The length was a true 11. I wear a 10-10 1/2 shoe and ordered up to next size. I guess I will have to continue with my beloved WickedGoods through the summer and maybe order a new pair in the fall.

I love this slipper! It's my second pair. I would have given them a 5 star rating, but went lower because of my first pair, not this pair. The flannel liner will wear out way sooner than the exterior. My original pair still looks great on the outside and I still wear them, but the interior flannel is just worn and torn. I purchased the color Acorn color. NOTE: This color is darker than the photo online. LLBean sent me another pair, they were lighter in color, so I kept them. Instead of sending the orginal pair back, I kept them...paid for them of course and gave them to my son. I will continue to buy these slippers as long as they make them.

I have had so many pairs of these slippers over the years it is hard for me to know how many. I would say at least 10 and probably more. I am finally going to air my one complaint. The flannel lining simply wears out way too soon. It only takes a month or two to show significant wear and then quickly wear all the way through. Despite this, these slippers are perfect for my use and I will continue to buy them. If the wear problem with the flannel lining could be solved, they would be 5 stars, no question.

This is my third pair in about 10 years. They are worn daily. But the laces will NOT stay tied. Same issue on every pair I've owned. They even come untied while watching tv. I have tried all different ways of tying them, but almost every day they need to be re-tied, often need retying multiple times a day. Sigh!

I'm on my third pair in 39 years and they receive daily use. For me they are comfortable. A pair every 13 years is something I can live with. A decent value.

the slippers are very good. the only thing that needs improvement is the rubber sole on the bottom. after a while, it becomes separated from the underneath of the slippers, causing like a bubble to appear on the bottom of slippers. you can then feel it as you walk every time you step. its like stepping on a bubble.

This is my second pair for my true Size 9 foot. The first (Size 9) was stiff and quite narrow--unwearable except barefoot. Over a couple years, they stretched to conform, as slipper/mocs do, but remained too narrow for socks. With that knowledge, this time I ordered a size larger. Had to tighten the laces to snug up the slightly wide heel of the new Size 10, but it fits my Size 9 foot with thin socks.. These don't come in half sizes, but I think most buyers would be confident with a full size larger. Otherwise, these are quality slippers for indoors and out. Sturdy, comfy and warm.

I bought these as a gift for my husband. He wears a size 9 1/2 but I purchased the size 10 on the recommendation to do so. I am hoping they do not stretch out and become too loose. He really likes them. Why do most men's slippers come in S M L ans XL?

I bought these for my husband at Christmas and we both find that this product is well made, however seems a bit snug. He is wearing them regularly in hopes that with time they will relax and be just right. Other than this, they are great looking and wearing well.

I love these slippers...this is the third pair I've bought over the years. The only complaint is the rawhide bows on the top: they won't stay tied. I put some cable ties around the knot to keep it from un-tying and flopping all over the place creating a tripping hazard I suppose. They are purely decorative anyway and should be locked in place prior to shipment. But then what do I know?

Originally ordered a 10, which is my true fit with thin/no socks. Returned for size 11. Cost me $6.50 shipping for the return. Comfortable and appears well made.

Fits a bit snug out of the box. Loosening with wear. Very warm and comfortable. Great for wear around house and outside to get newspaper and take out trash. Highly recommended

Bought for my son. His second pair. He said they were a bit tighter then his last pair. He's hoping they stretch out. Still happy.

Very attractive slipper; attractive enough to look like a regular loafer if you don't check it's outside sole. Had to return them. Husband said they felt a full size too small.

Good looking slippers and a nice fit.

I have always bought a size 9 Moc and had a good fit. This time the Moc was quite tight. Hope it stretches out!!!

These are affordable slippers that will provide great comfort and warmth on those cool evenings. They are to warm for summer but fall to spring are perfect. Only negative is the darn leather laces never want to stay tied.

I have always shopped at L.L. Bean for the past 25 years and have found their products to be of superior quality. However I find that this item seems a little to narrow, as is true with some of the other companies footwear which I have ordered and had to return in the past. However with that being said this product is very well constructed and would recommend it to others.

I love that I can go outside in these in wet conditions, including small amounts of snow, and come back with dry feet. I normally take size 10 medium. These are a little snug initially, especially with a deodorizing insert, but they stretch with use to become a good fit. The lace knot they come with is practically useless because it comes undone no matter how tight you make it. Fortunately L. L. Bean has a knot (I believe it's called a sailors knot) on their website that while difficult to tie works very well.

Wish they came in half sizes

I am fairly new to slippers, and purchased my first pair - cloth uppers and a thin foam sole - several years ago. They were good enough during the warm months, but my feet were always cold (mitigated somewhat by wool socks) the rest of the year. Then they started to delaminate, I started to shop, and came across these slippers, which I've worn for some weeks now. The leather upper provides some insulating properties which makes for happy feet, and in addition to that they look good as well. Time will tell how they will wear, but based on other Bean products that I have used, I have high hopes. The leather laces come untied easily (there's a video that addresses this), but so far I've just knotted them up to the hilt and that seems to work well, even if it diminishes that authentic moccasin look somewhat.

The rubber soles mean that short trips outdoors, e.g. to get the morning paper, are doable. As has been noted by others, the flannel lining wears out first, but after several years. I still felt that I got good value.

These are a great value for leather, well-made slippers. They molded to my feet in days, making them incredibly comfortable. I take away one star because the flannel lining clearly won't hold up as well as the overall slipper (this is what happened with an earlier pair). Luckily I had the thin inserts from a worn out pair of LL Bean shoes that I put in these slippers and that should minimize wear on the flannel. It would be nice if LL Bean provided at least the option of adding a thin heel or full insert because, based on my experience and so many reviews I read, the flannel simply can't hold up to the slippers.

Very comfy and sure footed. They are snug around the instep but that helps keep them on since the length is a half size long. Still, I'm a happy, hand-sewn slippers guy!
