Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Squam Lake Bootie

I love how warm and comfy these are! I was looking for a slipper that came over my ankle because of how cold my feet get. The only thing I hadn't thought about with these slippers is the velcro strap - it's super cute but I can't slip them on and off easily. I have to open the strap every time. It's not a huge deal but makes it so I can't quickly/effortlessly take them on and off

I was on the fence about keeping these slippers for one reason. As comfortable as they are, I find them difficult to put on. All they need in my opinion is a loop in the back to help assist in this matter and I would give them an excellent rating

I already wrote one review and decided to add to it after reading another reviews. It has a cut (opening on the top) and the strap to keep it secure so to get in and out is a breeze. The hill is wide and its not precise fit for 1/2 sizes but these are sleepers. It is intended to wear without socks (sheepskin absorbs moisture and keeps your feet happy). For the reference i wear 6,5 sometimes 7 and bought size 7. I also think that orange and navy is a gorgeous combo!

I liked the look of these sleepers (navy blue)comparing to color LLBean has always available (which I've been buying for a few years since UGG stopped making real sheepskin and replaced it with UGG wool). This sleepers runs 1/2 size bigger and hill is very wide. Thanks to closing strip you can make it tighter so it feels more comfortable. I am 6.5 or 7 and bought size 7. Size 6 is too small

I got these for my mom for Christmas, pictures online does not include the bright orange bottom. Like WHY BRIGHT ORANGE? Even then pink would of been better.

These are really warm and, for the most part, comfortable. My only complaint is the strap irritates the top of the foot - hoping as they stretch, that'll get better.

Love the LL Bean slippers. Ordered a size 10 and then exchanged them for a size 9. Still a little big in the heal area but with socks they fit just fine.

These are the best so far I've bought, I wish they had the same thicker rubber sole as the moccasins I usually purchase. No more cold ankles with these !! My shoe size is 7 1/2 so I always buy your slippers in size 8 in case I wear socks PLEASE KEEP MAKING THESE :-)

Wonderful warm slippers. If they came in a narrow width, they would be perfect.

Very comfortable & warm but a bit annoying to get on due to velcro closure but very happy with these and would recommend for anyone wanting warm indoor slippers/booties

Warm, fits well (half sizes definitely order up). Velcro strap is unnecessary and annoying. Even w/strap open, it's a little difficult getting into the slipper.

These slippers are very warm and cozy. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is that they are hard to put on because they are snug at the top of my foot/ankle. A pull loop would help on the upper back of the slipper.

I would have preferred a different finish on the leather but the design and materials are great.

I normally wear an 8.5 or maybe a 9, so I ordered size 9. HUGE. Am exchanging for an 8. Fingers crossed, because they seem like nice slippers.

These were a gift. I normally wear size 7.5, so I got size 8. I couldn't get my foot through the opening in the top of the slipper. Finally with a shoe horn I got them on, and the foot part fit fine. But I exchanged for a size 9. These were still a little hard to get on, with a little pulling. I was able to get them on without too much trouble. The foot size was only slightly large, so good enough. For me, the opening needs to be a little larger. I don't notice any other reviews having this problem. Other than the fit issue, they are comfortable and cozy warm.

These slippers are very warm and comfy... once they are on your feet. But they are difficult to get on. The velcro tab is just annoying.. not needed for fit or decoration. I like my ancient slip on ones better.

I love their warmth & quality however they are difficult to put on. Once on, they are perfect but there is a design flaw.

Even the left foot was slightly tight and not a comfortable relaxing fit like a slipper should be. The right foot was slightly better, but usually the right foot is also slightly larger. And I have thin feet. Seemed good quality though but needs to be checked on the last for comfortable fit. I am returning them. I take a size 8 1/2 to size 9 and these were size 9.

This slipper boot was well made, as all ortho feet are. I returned them because they were too difficult to get on. Didn't fit my feet as comfortably as my orto feet shoes. .

The materials used in this slipper are excellent, and it's very well made... with one important exception. There is something very strange (and inconsistent) about the design of the midsole. When I tried them on, the arch of the slipper seemed to be situated much farther back than it should have been. It was placed almost squarely beneath the heel. I exchanged this first pair for another pair of exactly the same slipper (again the Squam Lake Booties, again Size 10), thinking that the first pair might just have been defective. The second pair didn't even seem to have an arch. This time, it felt like there were cotton balls placed underneath the heels; there were areas of denser cushioning surrounded by areas of lighter cushioning. If the arch were placed correctly and there were no "cotton balls," I would love these slippers!

After my wife received these slippers and tried them on, she discovered that they did not fit her well.

These look beautiful and they seem well-made, but my feet get extremely hot in them after wearing them for only an hour. I've owned a lot of shearling house shoes in my lifetime and these are the only ones that do that. This makes me think that they're not all shearling or there's something in the material underneath, possibly the foam lining , that is causing the shearling to retain too much heat. Its a shame because I find myself constantly pulling these off my feet. Genuine, shearling shoes are supposed to be temperature adjustable so that your feet always maintain a comfortable temperature. These do not do that. Will probably send them back.

The opening was difficult to slip in and out, awkward design; had to return

Wonderful, cozy slippers but the lack of a pull tab at the back is a deal breaker and I will be returning them. If you want to be able to slip on your slippers without having to bend down to put them on, these are not for you.
