Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Slipper Venetian

I have purchased LLbean products for years- I have never ordered around Christmas and had the item arrive with the name of the item, size, etc. on the box. It's usually in another type of wrapper. My husband loved his "surprise" - too bad it's 3 weeks early.

I bought these slippers for my dad as a Christmas present, but was disappointed that the label of the product was on the outside of the shipping box, so there goes the surprise factor :(. I opened the box, and was also disappointed by one of the slippers having a white stain/smear on the top of the leather that doesn't seem to rub out. Wish I could've gotten a discounted price the faulty leather mark, or a new pair with no nicks or scratches.

I purchased a pair of these slippers in my usual size, 12. When they arrived they were way too small, my toes touched to front of the slipper and I could not wear them with thick butr not super thick socks. My feet felt cramped with mid-weight socks too. So I ordered a size 13. It was weay to large. Another issue: the heels are too loose and in both sizes my heels slipped out of the slipper with each step.

I bought a pair of size 9 medium width online. They arrived on time. They look great and look to be well made. I noticed when I took them out of the box that they looked narrow. I tried them on and they felt narrow. After a couple hours I had to take them off as they are too narrow...more than "snug"...these were tight. I wear a normal width shoe so its not that I have wide feet. I see the "wide" version of these are listed as not available. I wonder if thats because they are sold out or they just don't offer them in a wider size. What a shame.

A loyal Bean customer for 47 years. First and only product I have ever received from LL Bean that I was unhappy about. Sorry but these are overpriced and poor quality. The fit is weird and uncomfortable to me.

Make sure when you receive your slippers, both slippers are pretty much identical. I received one with rounded front and the other slipper was more pointed. Don't know how they could have shipped this combination without noticing the difference. Skippers are comfortable and true to size

These slippers are quite mediocre. Very very flimsy with little if any support. I don't think they were worth the price I paid for them.

Color is not the same as the other 4 I have had. Also, thinner lining.

I have purchased slippers in the past because they were well made and a good value. This was not the case with the slippers I purchased for my husband. The suede leather was thin and misshapen, not attractive and didn't hug his feet.

The fit is good but the construction makes it feel like a cheap shoe even though we paid a lot!

The "wicked good slippers" are really comfortable; however, the quality is quite low. After less than 15 months, the leather tore right above the sole. Those were not my first pair; the last one lasted for more than 5 years and I expected the same quality. It seems that was naive of me. I went back to the store to find out what they wanted to do about it. I was told the slippers were at "the end of their lifespan" and that I simply had "worn them too much". Is this what you mean by "We stand behind our products and quality remains a top priority for us"? You lost a customer, L.L.Bean.

The quality is good, which is to be expected at this price point. The fit was good. While the Sherpa pile is understandably thick until worn a few times, the right shoe has remained lumpy midway into the shoe. This "lumpiness" is not present in the left shoe. As a result, this less than "seamless" issue detracts from the overall comfort. Not bad enough to incur return postage, so I'm holding on to them, reminding myself that there are far worse things to be concerned about.

I received my new slippers and was very excited to try them on. My normal shoe size is a 12 and with socks they likely would feel tight. I wanted them to wear at night after taking my socks off. They are warm however the sole is made of nice rubber however there is no support ot cushion when you walk. They are wicked bad! Sorry I purchased them.

I've been wearing this for 14 months and on the left slipper the seam between the upper and the sole has begun tearing. It is open about 1", at the outside ball of the foot. It is still wearable, but I didn't expect to have it fall apart just over a year into wear.

The quality is now so poor, this slipper barely resembles the original slipper. It's flimsy, the soles are very thin, the lining is far less dense than the original. Yet the cost is still the same. Pitiful for a once respected brand.

Inner fur bunches up creating hills that make you not want to wear the slippers anymore

Not very comfortable. Seems like both slippers are for left foot. Not very impressed with this slippert at all! Would not recommend

The slippers are so wide it's hard to keep my feet in them, and I have wide feet (4E).

There is a slight defect in the left slipper. An indentation that causes irritation of my small toe. I'm really disappointed. I'm sending them back.

I bought my boyfriend a pair in January after receiving my own (second) pair. My first pair lasted years of my wearing them every day. FIrst, he loved the look and how cozy they were. They seemed perfect. However, after 3 months of use (he wore them daily but only around the house), the soles had worn out - the fur lining was just gone in the heel and toes. We knew it would squish down as is the nature of the shoe but this is worse than that. The fuzzy is gone - making their comfort far less than they were initially. Then, a few weeks ago, one of the seams ripped. It's disappointing as I thought they would last him a lot longer than 10 months. Especially as they're "built to last". Oh well. He really did like the color, style, and fit otherwise. truly unfortunate they wore out so quick.

These make my arches hurt. I could enjoy earlier models of this shoe for hours, most of the day, very comfortably. Historically there was a small raised heel and I suspect that's the difference. The newbies are totally flat on the bottom, and the inside is plush but flat. The rise wasn't much but I think it kept my feet feeling much better. I actually bought one pair of the newbies, gave them away, and bought another hoping it was just some fluke. Returned the second pair after trying them on.

One slipper seems to tilt me sideways. I seem to be walking on the side instead of the sole.

These are very pliable and soft, almost so much so it's hard to keep on your feet. I feel like I could easily roll my ankle. Maybe better suited for wide feet. Disappointing.

I bought these slippers in February of 2023 to replace a pair of Bean slippers that I had for 5-6 years. Unfortunately, these replacements have worn out pretty fast! As you can see from the pictures, there's a seam failure in the outside toe area. And the inside heal areas are worn down. I expect more than 18 months out of a pair of slippers.

I've had about 6 pairs of slippers from LLbean. This is the 3 kind of this slipper I've had and I've got to say that it feels as though they stopped at the heel area. I got a blister from wearing slippers! There's no padding and very little fur, and the stitching is showing where the heel is. I'm hoping it changes as I wearing them more, but I have to wear socks, which sucks. This is the first time I've been less than satisfied with their slippers. It almost looks intentional because there is thick fur all the way around the ankle, except the heel. There needs to be more heel protection 100%
