Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Slipper Venetian

I wore these for two winters inside my house only (I live in the South, so perhaps three months per year for two years). By the end of the second winter, the shearling had worn down to the slipper, providing no cushion. I shipped them to customer service for an evaluation, but since it was after the one year warranty period, they said they couldn't do anything. I said they could toss them then. Don't get me wrong--It was a great product while they provided cushion. But at $90, it should last longer than two seasons' worth. I'm better off wearing thick winter socks that are much more durable and can be exchanged when they wear down.

I was disappointed when we received our new slippers. The qaulity has decreased, as far as comfort.

I wear 10-1/2, so I ordered 10 and 11. 10 was too small and 11 too big - returned both.

I thought I was a size 10 in mens but that is not the case, These are very tight to the point it just bunches up in the padding around the toes. Was actually causing problems for my big one of my big toes as it was rubbing too much and causing an itch that would lead to a rash so I can't keep them on for long. I need to return these. I will rewrite a review once I get a size that actually fits me. I would say I didn't really get to enjoy these. All issues related to size.

My first pair had thin spots in the heel lining, and wore out in a few weeks. LLBean replaced them for me, and the replacements wore through in a month. Not worth the high price to me.

I wouldn't say they are wicked good but, pretty good. The right side slipper is way to narrow, actually starts to cut off circulation after about 5 minutes of wearing them. The left side was perfect! Not sure how that happens but it did. If they both arrived as narrow as the left they would be wicked good.

Inside fur was stringy and not plush. Feels cheap.

These are nicely made and present well, but... Other than a thin layer of fleece that is crushed down immediately upon wearing, they have zero padding or support under foot and are quite uncomfortable to walk in. A structured foam layer under the fleece would fix this problem. I love LL Bean and wish I could review higher but that is my personal experience, YMMV.

Received these slippers for Christmas. Length is good but width is too wide. Makes it hard to walk. Size I got was 11M. I checked the box to make sure I didn't receive an extra wide pair. Was going to return them but the box got put into the recycling bin and inside tags were removed. Humbug See my photo below and compare to the photo on LLBean web page

They are cut way too wide. The fit isn't right they are big.

Poorly constructed, after returning the first pair that seemed to have manufacturing issues (front of slipper much narrower than the other), the replacement pair took exactly 2-3 wears to inherit a permanent fold back on one of the tongues. I'm not a picky person, it just seems for the price point the quality did not match.

Ordered black/got dark green. Size 14 more like 15

I bought these for an older relative. The upper and lining are very nice. Unfortunately, the sole is made out of something that actually sticks to hard floors. This is creating a tripping hazard. I wish I had read product details more closely, but, honestly, I have never before encountered anything like this in footwear.

Contrary to the pair I got 2 years ago, these slippers did not fit well. I returned them after trying 2 different sizes.

I wear a women's size 8.5W, so I bought the men's size 7. The fit is great. However, I'm not as impressed as other reviewers - particularly with the quality control. (1) Fit = The first pair I tried on felt weird on my left foot. The second pair felt weird on my right foot. I finally found a pair that fit well on both feet. (The staff in the store were very helpful and patient.) (2) Lining - There is less lining in the right slipper than the the left slipper, so it looks weird. (3) Warmth - These don't keep my feet warm at all. I think my $25 slippers do a better job. I will keep the slippers, but I don't love them as much as everyone else.

I Have ordered these for my family for at least ten years. They just aren't the same. They rip away from the sole within a year. The last two pairs my husband had needed replacing quickly..just not quickly enough to fall on the limited llbean warranty. I tried to get him another pair for his birthday last month but they've been just sitting in my cart on back order for week and won't ship until late August. I just canceled the order and ordered a new trendy brand instead.

My girlfriend had gifted me a pair of these slippers after my old ones (>5 years old) were falling apart. The ones she bought were the same size as my old ones, but they were too small. I decided to exchange for a size up. In order to not pay for the exchange shipping cost, I hiked to an LL Bean store, only to be told the color I wanted was backordered. I decided to wait. A month later, I received my slippers. After a few hours of wearing them, I noticed that they were defective - there's a big tear at the seam of the tongue. I called LL Bean and was told that the brown are now backordered until August and there's no way to accelerate my timeline despite the fact that I already waited more than a month. The construction is not what it used to be. I don't know that I'll choose LL Bean in the future.

Looks like a fine product, but I can't get one to fit him. He wears a half size and going bigger meant he would be scuffling around and lower just was impossible to get on.

Feet slide off of the sole of the shoe side-to-side. Makes it awkward to wear. If that was better the slipper would be perfect!

Great material quality, not a good fit - toe box too narrow; it was uncomfortable wearing!

They are not supportive at all. I was walking on the side of my feet.

Overall the fit and comfort are good. The craftsmanship, and specifically the sewing of the footbed is done quite poorly. After just over a year of wearing these, the sole is separating as a result of the poor craftsmanship.

Only full sizes were available and I wear an 11 1/2 so LLBean said to order a 12. I did and the right slipper rode up on the heel when I walked/

Several pairs in my family. We loved everything about them EXCEPT that they prematurely tear where the rubber sole meets the sheepskin. Also have the Wicked Good version in our house. THOSE have an extra piece of sheepskin where it meets the rubber (take a look). None of those have torn. Made more like classic LL Bean attention to detail. Just sayin'.

Slipper is extremely narrow in toe and small to sizing. I wear an 11 shoe, bought a size 12 slipper - way too small. Maybe a 13 would work but hassle to get back store. Lining seems to be very warm. Unfortunately can't wear since too small. I bought a pair of these in size 11 about 5 years ago and they fit ok and were great to wear.
