Customer Reviews Baabushka Slipper with Leather Sole

I like the fit, if they were tight I'd have to use my hands to get them on. I can slip my feet into these and creep my toes forward to put them on. Once on, they stay put because of the small rim around the back edge. These are exactly what I've been looking for: soft soles that protect our wood floor, slip on style that stays on easily, and made from natural materials. No arch support. More like walking barefoot with a bit of cushion. I didn't know these were handmade in Nepal until they arrived. The artisans did a great job! It's so hard to find a sole that isn't for outdoors. I really like these and recommend them to people who are concerned about wearing shoes indoors.

Genurous fit, perfect warmth. I can sit cross legged in my recliner without toes on one or the other foot turning to icicles. Socks just didn't fit my comfort bill. I was looking for an old fashioned leather sole and a little surprised at how hard it was to find. Those little gripper dots that so many have are not necessarily needed, or wanted, when all your floors are carpeted

I love these slippers! Not only do they feel great on my feet, but it pleases me that they are individually handmade by people in Nepal--each pair of slippers having a personal stitch sewn in to identify the person who made them. These wool slippers are quality made, and I will purchase them again.

In the end I decided I did not want a leather sole. Otherwise, these might have been cozy to wear just inside and around the house.

Very nice, well-made slippers but too wide for me. And a little too flat.

these slippers are game changers! no more sweaty feet, just toasty warm toes. everything you’ve heard about wool is true. amazing comfort, breathability, just the right amount of warmth. and to clarify: the suede leather soles are NOT slippery at all on my wood floors.

Slippers fit perfect for my size 7.5 foot. Very soft and comfortable too.

These are perfect for me! I have a lot of foot pain so since these are all wool felt, they conform to my foot. Most comfortable slippers I've had in ages.

If you have a higher instep may be a little tight, I do wear a wide and the width is perfect but instep slightly tighter than I would normally like, material should stretch after frequent wear though

The fit is great so in that regard, they are comfy (well-fitting). I'm a little disappointed with the fact there's really no cushion to the sole. I guess I should have read a little more/investigated a little more. If you're not looking for a cushy sole, you might like them a lot!

Comfy and warm, fit my size 13 feet perfectly.

I really loved the look of this slipper. After I added an insole they were wonderful.

Love the slippers, just was to small. Normally a 11 -11.5 Ordered the 11.5 and my foot does not even slide in

I actually love the shoe. Wear it in and out of the house. But the top of the shoe does put pressure on my foot. I was hoping it would break in over time - but it did not stretch. If you do not have a high instep then you should be fine.

Feels good to wear and keeps the temperature of my feet just right

Pros: They are silent on all flooring... softish bouncy comfort despite no inner padding... do no come off on stairs. Cons: I can get them on with thinner socks, but they are warm without the need for thicker. The top fit is very snug and would have preferred looser. I wear 6 1/2 and bought the 6-6 1/2.

These are excellent slippers! They fit great and are very comfortable. I’ve only worn them for a short period of time, so I’m hoping that they will continue to be comfortable

Love these slippers. The first pair I ordered was my normal size but they were a bit small. Zappos was very prompt with my exchange.

I live and WFH in my wool slippers. Everyone should have these :-)

The Baabushka slipper felt great right out of the box. I purchased the felted grey color so that I could pin on the felted "rose corsages" from my previous pair of handmade felted slippers. With the added decoration, I feel like I'm wearing Marie Antoinette slippers. (And, unlike my previous pair of handmade felted slippers, I'm hopeful that the leather bottom that is added to these slippers will make them last longer.)

I love my slippers! The suede bottoms are so quiet on my wood floors, but are not slippery. I can't wait to put them on my feet after a long day at work. So comfortable!

Bought for my adult son. He loves them. True to size and keep his feet nice and warm. This is not one to wear outside, but they’re great around the house and hood for hardwood floors.

These are great. Needed a non-rubber sole slipper to cut down on the static shocks and risk to my electronic equipment. They are light, comfortable and well-made. Size 10.5 fit like a 10.5 should.

I usually wear a 7-7.5, and wanted a loose comfortable fit, so I ordered a 7and an 8 to see which one fit better, and the 8 was perfect. They are comfortable, though there is no arch support, and it feels very much like walking on lightly padded bare feet, which works for me, since I’m just wearing them as house slippers, and primarily got them so that I’d have some compact, nicer house slippers to take with me when I go visiting. I like that they are hand made in Nepal, and they seem well made with good craftsmanship.

I purchased these for a gift. He usually wears a 9.5 and I purchased 10. He likes shoes snug and the 10s were perfect. Do not size down. Well made smooth sole, perfect for wood floors. Would buy these again.
