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

Should have read the reviews. An 8 Medium is more like an 8 Narrow. I don't have wide foot, so I was shocked at how tight they were. Now, I have to send them back and pay $6.50 and the box to a UPS Store. I hope LLBean is not going the way of every other retailer.

Based on recommendations, I had high expectations for this slipper. Unfortunately, the fit is uncomfortably tight upfront and very loose at the heal. Was hoping a break-in period would be minimal but, due to excessive foam padding in the front, I have doubts about any break-in improvement. I've been wearing them for 3 weeks. My normal shoe width is C,

Please be aware that the lining in these shoes are not very durable. As you can see from the picture

Was told when ordering if I wore 11 1/2 size in a New Balance shoe to order size 12. The size 12 were much too large so returned the shoes with a $6.50 return fee and ordered size 11. The left shoe fits fine but the right shoe is too narrow through the toe, seems to be a manufacturing defect. I will keep the shoes and hope that they will stretch over time but am disappointed with the fit. I replaced a pair of these that I got years ago and litterally wore the soles off of them and loved them. These seem to be of lesser quality.

Poorly sewn - top part of shoe actually severely crooked. not true to size,

They were entirely too tight on my feet. I returned them.

It looks like the left was made in a different factory to the right. The tie is too short and keeps coming undone.

Went 2 sizes bigger that my usual size and it's still too tight.

Miss the old school leather moccasins. Fleece lined. Can't ever go back.

Too stiff and uncomfortable. NOT like a slipper should feel.

I've purchase many of L.L. Beans Handsewn Slippers and shoes in the Freeport and Boston stores over many years with great results. Make no mistake these are not "Maine Quality" workmanship! These are produced out of country now. The top pattern for the slippers leather is ridiculously narrow, making the entire thing too tight. I spoke with a Bean representative, I told him I ordered size 9 and they are too tight, so he said he would send me the next size up, a 10, to correct the problem...Okay. However the next size up is just longer, still just as tight and useless. Additionally, I now find I'm going to be charged by L.L. Bean separately for each pair just to return a improperly made product that used to be wonderful (still brand new, in boxes) . Skip these!

The flannel wore badly in less than a year making the shoe unwearable. They are being returned.

As advertised; good example of Bean quality and servide

Since LLB changed my favorite slippers to flannel lined they wear out quickly. I still have my very old fleese lined pair at camp.

Too small way too small for wide feet had to send them back

Very good slipper this is the second of this model I have purchased. I will probably buy it again in a few years.

Rubbed side of foot raw from rough leather, do not expect to break in. Returning. Long time customer of wicked good deerskin lined, but those were discontinued and these do not even begin to compare.

Runs super small. No give in the shoe. The color is nice but the sizing is all messed up.

I asked if these came in a wide widths, and when giving my size and width was told the medium or however they are listed would work. I am trying to break them in and hope they so stretch some. As of now, still tight, and narrow.

These slippers are not true to size. I ordered my husband a half size larger and he could not even begin to get them on his feet.

It is a good looking slipper, but it is too narrow. Many reviews said this,

Too narrow, especially in the toe. Sizing and design has changed since the 2 previous same slippers purchased from L.L. Bean.

Thought I could fit into the men's version of my favorite style slipper. Not. Heels too big.

The color wasn't like the same as in the ad, leather very thick and stiff not like a slipper, only one size available medium D, way too tight VERY uncomfortable, more like a shoe than a slipper.
