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

We bought our son-in-law a pair of these slippers 8 years ago. The inside ripped out recently (but the sole was intact), so we decided to buy him a new pair to give him this upcoming Christmas, since he likes them so much, as he claims they are very comfortable and fit him well.

ordered 11s and returned for 10s,seem to run large,10s are a little snug but think they will stretch,just wish could keep laces tied,always have been a problem with your slippers

This is my 3rd or 4th pair of these slippers. My only complaint is that the flannel on the inside wears through almost immediately! The fit and exterior durability are great but I wish they'd do something to improve the material on the inside.

Retired old slippers and saw these online. Great slipper. I have a wide foot but these started out a little snug, but after 3 weeks they fit fine. Great craftsmanship. If like other LL Bean products, they will last a long time.

The slippers were a bit pricey, but I liked the pair I bought years ago. Problem then was size 10 was too small, took a long time to break-in so they were comfortable. This time I ordered size 11, which were a half size too large. I seem to be a perfect size 10.5. The slippers fit well enough that I didn't send them back, but LL Bean needs to make them in half sizes. Just my opinion.

Bought these for my son and he immediately loved them! Fit and comfort is great, style is right on for a man. But, the lining wears out with holes very fast. The flannel is thin and no way to patch or replace it because it is sewn in to the whole inside. I called customer service and they could not repair just the lining. Because it had been a while, I chose not to return the shoes for complete replacement. Wish LL Bean would come up with a better lasting flannel lining. Otherwise, a fantastic slipper.

I like these a lot, but... for some reason, I quickly wear out the lining which eventually makes them less comfortable. So I have liked many pairs of these comfortable slippers. LL Bean replaced them a few times and then I decided that I was buying them knowing that they would quickly wear out, so I stopped returning them and just buying a new pair as needed.

great pricely product-however does not last long -over a year-inside wears out with in a year and you have to buy new ones

These are wonderfully comfortable! I got them as a gift and wore them around the house daily all Fall, Winter and Spring. I just wish they were more durable. I wore holes in the flannel lining in both shoes. LL Bean shoes typically last way longer than these slippers did, so I may ask them for a return. LL Bean customer service is legendary!

pleased with appearance, but haven't had time to see how they will compare to my last pair. (also from llbean). will know more after winter, but i'm optimistic!

This is my third pair of these slippers. They are very comfortable. Unfortunately, the flannel lining wears out after about a year of daily use.

These slippers are well made, a beautiful, rich dark brown and comfortable. The leather is a soft pebble textured material that unlike my former slippers leave our tile floors unmarked. Their only drawback is that the laces easily untie, but this is characteristic of this design from every manufacturer. Overall, they are excellent value for money.

My husband really likes his slippers. He wears a 10 1/2 and went to a size 11. They are comfortable without being too warm. They only problem is that they will not stay tied. He has tried different knots to no avail. They always seem to be untied. Otherwise, happy with the purchase.

I have two pair of the top of the line Double Sole, leather lined, hand sewn mocs which are still servicable except for holes through first and in places second layers. A few trips outside plus inside wear all my waking hours took their toll on outer soles. My last slipper purchase was same shoe, with lightweight rubber sole which has served me well, and flannel lining which has been wearing out over past year. I have gotten two years service from them, and bought them for less than $50, so no complaint. I am waiting for backordered replacement, elkhide slippers, with same light 'rubber' outsoles and full leather lining, hoping they fit feet as well as $104 model. Would like to see top of the line slippers with lightweight out-side sole as mentioned above. Retired UPS package car driver. Once was known as "Full Dress Bean" due to your product line and my dressing habits. Due to back injuries; years of shirts, chinos are seldom used. Still a "Beaner."

The fit is excellent and true to size but the heal wears too quickly. Possibly some reinforcement in that area would allow these slippers to last longer. Overall, they are really nice and comfortable when they are new but I'm a little disappointed they didn't last longer.

I agree with most of the reviewers, I've always liked this LL Bean mocassin slipper. I returned the original pair because the fabric interior wore out after several months of wear. LLBean graciously exchanged the slippers for a new pair (Thank You!); however the second pair's fabric interior by the heel still wears out after a few month's use. Bean needs to put an insert by the heel to prevent this. The only other issue I have is with the rawhide laces. They're thick and come undone frequently. Not good for seniors wearing the slippers. (A tripping accident waiting to happen.) Bean has a method of tying these where they won't come undone, but that just results in a very large and ugly bow knot. I've purchased other Bean slippers which are good; not quite as stylish as these, but I won't be purchasing any more of this style -- sadly.

a very comfortable slipper.The beacon time was very short (3-4)days.the width may be too large since I have a very narrow foot and find it difficult in finding any foot ware that properly fits my size and width.nice looking and well made.

These slippers are similar to the moose hide slippers that I really liked. They are comfortable, functional and appear to be well made. However, the size chart was wrong! I wear a size 12 (European 46) shoe. Given the variability in sizing, I usually have better luck ordering by the European size. The size chart shows the 12 as a European 47. Given that information and the size of the moose hide slippers, I ordered a 12. However, the 12 was decidedly small and I exchanged it for a 13.

Although these slippers were very well made and good-looking, they were too tight to be comfortable over my husband's bunions. For that reason, I returned them and am giving them four stars, but would certainly recommend them for anyone who doesn't have foot problems.

I have bought several pairs of these slippers for my husband. He really likes them. The shoes never wear out, but the flannel lining does not hold up. Too bad you can't put in a better lining to last at least as long as the slipper. I would recommend them to a friend, but warn them about the lining. Note: I have to select an "item" above before it will let me post this. It has blanks after the bubbles. I have no idea what I'm selecting.

Gave to my husband about 3-4 years ago. All in all they are a good slipper especially since they are flannel lined instead of furry. The problem---the darn leather shoelaces. They do not stay tied. Potential tripping became a concern so they will be Gorilla glued in the knot and in place.

The slippers are very nice. However, the lining is wearing out in the heel after only 3 months.

I recd these for Christmas last year. I have worn them every day. They are incredibly comfortable and nice looking. Only issue is the lining is wearing out. Not just a little, a LOT.

Overall a great slipper EXCEPT that the flannel lining quickly splits at the heel. I have purchased several of these for family members over the past couple of years. All report same problem. So sorry to see this in an LLBean product.

OK, so I wear out a pair of slippers every year, and I start to look for the best choice near the holidays when many are available. In the past, I have found the L.L. Bean slippers to be a bit narrow and too snug even when ordering up the next whole size. This time was different, and I was able to find comfort in my latest choice. As usual, the quality is there, and of course the utility is in the product. I may have to keep this pair for more than one year, and that's saying something about the rest of the industry that offers slippers to us older curmudgeons out there, just puttering around the house, the yard and the garage!
