Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Slipper Venetian

My favorite slippers are the scuffs with the cork soles. I've had three pairs, but the last two came apart on the side well before the rest of the slipper was worn out. My feet are not wide. The leather actually split open on the last pair. So I decided to try the Venetian slippers. They are warm all the way around, and I like having my heel covered, but they are a little narrow. I don't really like the way they look, but purpose comes before looks. The soles are okay for going out in the garage, but I really preferred the sturdy cork base with the outdoor sole on the scuffs. These soles don't quite support. I wish LLBean would up the quality on the scuffs. Someone with narrow feet and a preference for a softer sole will like the Venetian slippers.

I just got these slippers, and they are really nice, but they are huge. I always wear a 9 so that's what I ordered, but they flop off of my feet. I wish they had half sizes. I will send them back.

I look down at my feet and wonder "why do I have men's slippers on?". These slippers are just so masculine looking, and they also seem extra long and wide looking, although the actual fit is mostly ok. I feel like I have (male) clown shoes on. They are just very bulky looking and not at all feminine. I normally wear 8.5 so I ordered up to a 9 as suggested. They fit fine and are comfortable with a fairly heavy sock. They are way too loose with no socks. I'm going to return them.

I am consistently a 6.5, ordered up to size 7 as suggested. It was too big and my heel was slipping out when walking. Got a size 6, and it was so tight in the toes to be painful. Card said it would stretch out but I didn't want to bother or chance it. The shoe itself is fine, thick lush lining, just beware if you're a half size.

Like other people's reviews of other Wicked Good slippers, the shearling in my slipper has worn down. The shearling at the edging is frayed and getting yucky. Back it goes, and a flannel-lined in its place. The toddler's shearling slipper, by the way, is fantastic! Quality doesn't extend to adults' slippers.

I couldn't wait to receive them.Excellent service and delivery. However, the slippers were extremely large, and I just did not like the way they looked on my feet. Kind of a wide look. I returned them..

Bought these slippers in Nov '25. Was very excited as I always wanted a pair for myself (my husband has had several pairs over the years). Love the color and feel, but noticed that the foot was fairly narrow. I assumed that as I wore them they would stretch a little to conform to my foot but they still haven't and now they feel like they're pinching my foot. I ordered up a size per recommendation, but they're still too narrow across the balls of my feet. It's a shame but I hardly wear them now.

I received these slippers from my daughter as a Christmas present 2-3 years ago. I do wear them only during the winter. They are warm and comfortable. However, for the price LLBean charges they are poor quality. Where my heels and toes are, the lining is gone. And where the slippers join the sole, they have separated in several places from the sole. The worst is the left slipper where the sole has not just separated but is torn. I wear these slippers only indoors!

I was disappointed. Have purchased before, this slipper is no match to the quality of my other slipper from a few years ago. It's a bit tight, inside material is disappointing. I don't think I recall the quantity of fluff was odd. My older slipper is still good so will be returning the new edition.

I have purchase the LLBean moc slippers for decades- always very happy with them . However, in recent years they changed the soft leather ties with a stiff one that I found untied itself all the time. So this year I ordered the Venetian. The quality of the sheepskin in not the same. In the old slippers, the high density of hair that made the fleece resilient and firm. In the new one, it is silky and soft, but not supportive. The enclosed note tells you that the slippers will be tight at first but the fleece will compress over time. Not needed, since these are already feeble and are already packed to nothing. With no store nearby, I will keep these only because I have inserted sheepskin insoles from Kiwi Sheepskin in NZ that make them wearable. So disappointed!

I've had LL Bean slippers my entire life. Typically I replace them when the foot bed wears out, but never because the stitching holding the shoe together completely failed. It is still one piece of thread, so I could have gotten it caught on something and ripped it. No, the thread pulled out right through the leather and the glue against the rubber wasn't strong enough to keep it together. They are about 2 years old, so far beyond the return time. I miss the time when this company stood by the quality and helped when it was their product that failed

I bought these slippers over a year ago. I was very disappointed how fast the inner lining went flat. This made the slipper too big for me. You can no longer return item's that don't stand up to the LL Bean quality.

I really wanted to like these slippers, but the fit is very uncomfortable. The heel is a bit big and the toe box is very narrow. I followed the sizing suggestion and ordered my regular shoe size (8) but my toes are squished up against the front and sides of the shoe. I know they are supposed to be snug at first, but I cannot see how they will ever conform comfortably to my feet. Very disappointed.

Insole of one slipper does not fit properly. There is a lump which is uncomfortable.

The shape of the tie box was uneven on both slippers. I returned them at the store.

I ordered the same size I ordered last year and they are quite a bit smaller, which is frustrating because now I'm going to need to find some different slippers or mail them back, pay return shipping, and see if the next size up will work. Loved last year's slippers and would really appreciate consistency in sizing!

I wanted to love these slippers. And I think I would've if they fit. I didn't see any advice to size up when ordering and they were VERY tight. That coupled with non-free returns (didn't get an option to exchange) likely means I won't try again. Disappointed.

I'm disappointed. Since they're priced nearly the same as Ugg's, I expected some of the same quality. Regardless of how wonderfully cushy they are, they lack any support for the foot. I mean none. My flat feet nearly roll over. The furry lining is cozy, but there's little cushion for walking on the floor. I don't dare walk to the mailbox! I don't recommend this purchase.

Not a good substantial slipper. Sent back. Sole was very thin, felt like I was walking in bare feet. Wanted a better sole that I could go outside with for a short period. To get mail or get something from the garage. Would never hold up to that. Could get something from a bargain store that would be better. Suede and shearling was nice, but not a good sole or cushioning. Not worth the price. Would have given zero stars except for the suede and shearling.

I bought 2 pair, Sienna brick & charcoal blue. They both quickly stretched out on the sides where I can no longer safely wear them. The light color also looks dirty altho they have never been worn outside. On the plus side, they were quite comfortable at first, sole looks great, no wear. As this stretching doesn't occur on any other shoe item I own, this is specific to the slippers and not my feet/manner of walking. Very disappointed & do not recommend. Given the price, they should last longer than 2 years.

Slippers were too big, even though I ordered the size that worked well before.

I have bought LL Bean products for many, many years now and I have to say that this iconic, comfy slipper is not the same quality product. There is much less support in the heel, really the whole bottom of the foot, and wearing them since just after New Years, the slipper bottom feels flat and thin. Yes, the upper is real suede, the inside is wool and the outside is rubber, but I ask...what happened to the inner sole of this slipper? It feels like nothing is there! This comfy slipper is very uncomfortable...I put my old worn out Wicked Good slippers back on. There is actually a little more padding left for the bottom of my foot than my new slippers offer. Not happy at all, considering the price of this product. I am going to return them and find something else at another store. Really disappointed.

Pros: Run narrow. (I have narrow feet.) Cozy. Cons: Not cushioned. Bought these because my old go-to of the Wicked Good mocs have undergone a decline in workmanship/comfort. I was unsure about the Venetians in the store, where I immediately noticed a lack of footbed cushion, but got them anyway because they run narrow. At home, they were no better on my hardwood and tile floors. They feel best only when sitting and doing nothing. I'll likely be returning these soon and continuing a frustrating search for a quality, supportive, cushioned slipper that doesn't fall off my heels.

I really wanted these but was so disappointed in the fit. Now I have to return...

I've gotten these slippers every year for years and really love them. This year one slipper is flipped up and the other down. There is no way to make it stay down and it's driving me crazy. These are brand new.
