Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Wicked Good Slippers

Not as comfy as they look. They felt mismatched. They are nice looking and soft.

II was VERY DISAPPOINTED to return my new slippers. I LOVE Beans Wicked Good slippers and have bought and worn them just shy of 30 yrs. My last two pairs are almost destroyed but will wear them until Bean makes them the way they used to. Slippers were true to size (6 1/2 ordered a 7) so I can wear with socks. But I would not recommend them to a friend. They were thin and flimsy. They describe the shearling as lambs fur? What is that? And they do not provide the support they used to (which was soft but firm)...hard to get your feet inside them with or without socks because they've been redesigned and are flimsy. My old ones are elf shaped and easy to get in to and out of as slippers should be. Overall, quality and design, not as substantial as they once were. VERY SAD!! LL BEAN PLEASE! MAKE THEM THE WAY YOU USED TO BE MADE AND I WILL BUY THEM!

As soon as I slipped them on I knew the quality wasn't there and I put them right back in the box and sent them back.

The left slipper fit, but the opening on the right slipper did NOT open enough to fit on my foot which my feet are a size 7 Medium, which is the size the slippers were. Other slippers I have from BEAN in the PAST have been GREAT, but not these. SORRY They have been returned.

I've been wearing these slippers for years and thought it was time to get a new pair (my third). The old design used to cover the entire front of the foot up to the ankle. The newer design has an opening in the front. The materials, both inside and out, are a lower quality than the older slippers. Finally there is a tag sown into the inside bottom of the slipper that is very uncomfortable. I would rather wear my old, worn-out pair with socks than keep the new slippers. Very disappointing. I have loved these slippers for years so much so that I have purchased them for numerous family members and friends.

i actually couldn't get my foot into these. They were my usual size, but the opening wouldn't accommodate a high arch. Years ago I had a wonderful pair that appeared to be same style.

Quality of these slippers has gone down the tube. After one week of wear, the seam ripped wide open on the left slipper. My last pair of these lasted 5 years before the threads starting coming apart. I love LLBean but am crying right now . . .

Have wore these slippers for about 3 months now and they have gotten so big they don't keep my feet warm anymore. Like to wear my slippers without socks and also like a leather sole, not rubber ones that catch on the carpet. The slippers were just the right size upon purchase but quickly loosened up. Most of the problem I believe is with the fleece. Different quality of what I was used to in other Bean slippers. Not enough of it and different texture. Will be sending these back.

These didn't have enough "structure" to them for me. My foot kept slipping over, a problem I never had with the low moccassin version. I had to return them.

They were small in both directions. I have a wide foot so I was not surprised that they were to tight width wise, but was very surprised they were to short length wise as well. Plus, $79.99 is to much money for slippers- I only ordered them because I had Bean Bucks. So, back they go and the hunt for women's wide slippers continues.

I had the moccasin slippers many years ago and loved them. These are too small, as suggested in several reviews, and the workmanship does not seem to live up to the quality I have expected and received in the past. I plan to return them and to shop elsewhere for slippers. I tried hiking boots a few years ago, having worn the soles off my old LL Bean pair, which I loved, and had a similar experience. I'm afraid something has changed with the production of LL Bean shoes and although the prices remain high the quality does not.

I really, REALLY wanted to love these slippers. Being a California girl transported to the East Coast I needed a slipper that would keep my chronic popsicle toes warm and cozy around the house during the cold winter months and this slipper looked like it would fit the bill perfectly. I wear a size 9 1/2 shoe and they don't come in half sizes so I went up a size with a 10. At first the fit was actually a little tight but I wanted them to fit fairly snuggly so that they wouldn't feel drafty at all. After 2 or 3 weeks of wear around the house I was dismayed to find that they had stretched so much that they had indeed become loose and "drafty". So around that time, when I found myself near an LL Bean, I bought a 2nd pair in the next size down- a 9 (I didn't have the first pair with me and figured I'd just return those at a later date). The 9 was SUPER snug at first, but that didn't worry me since I knew they would stretch quite a bit. And they did. And then they did some more and by the 5th or 6th week of wear, they had stretched to the point where they were even BIGGER than the 10's (which i still had). So with sorrow in my heart I returned both pairs to Bean. I've read in a few other revues that the quality of this slipper is not what it used to be and suspect they may be using a cheaper grade of shearling than they used to that is far stretchier than what they used to use. I wouldn't have been nearly as disappointed had it been a 30 dollar slipper but for 80 dollars, I expect a well crafted slipper made with top notch materials. (in other words, one that lives up to the standards that Bean worked so hard to earn for many years). To Bean's credit, the nice lady behind the counter didn't bat an eye when I returned not one but two pairs of these slippers at once. So where customer service is concerned, their famously high standards haven't slipped one iota. Unfortunately, it seems the same can't be said for the quality of some of their products.

I think it's a shame that the once wicked good slippers are now so awful. The leather is so soft that you cannot slip your feet into them, you have to pull them on. Also, the sole of the left slipper was not flat; there was a bump in it that was very uncomfortable. The two slippers didn't even look like a pair and one top opening was significantly smaller than the other. I owned this model LL Bean slipper 20 years ago and cried when a flood ruined them. I found other slippers, which I now thought I'd replace with the old LL Bean style. I was so disappointed by what I received. I exchanged them for a different product. "Wicked bad!"

I first bought these formerly wonderful slippers many years ago. They keep my feet warm; are very comfortable. The first pair lasted a long time, until an accident. I ordered another pair. They were also wonderful but the stitching came out in one after a year or 2. I was out from work a good deal of that time & wore them a lot around the house during the day as well as at night, so I wasn't upset. I purchased a new pair. They are completely uncomfortable & poorly made, the bottom constructed so that I was almost walking on the sides of my feet. If LLBean decides to manufacture them properly again, I'll buy them for the rest of my life.

I usually love my LL Bean purchases but these slippers were an exception. There were sharp, uncomfortable tags sewn inside the slippers and I could not get my hand in to cut or pull them out. Obviously a scratchy tag negates the comfort of fleece lined slippers, so sadly I had to send these back.

Unfortunately I had to return these as they sewed the tags right in the inside arch of the slipper and were very uncomfortable. Cutting the tags did not look like it was going to help; but I didn't try it so that I could return them. I am a 7.5 wide and ordered an 8. They felt a bit small, but slippers typically widen over time, so that was not a problem. The soles, however, even without the tags, felt a bit awkward. Don't know how else to describe it.

I ordered a size larger to try to get the width I needed. They are still tight and they have a built in sole that does not stay centered, so the slippers are not so comfortable. Also, who puts the made in tag in the insole area? I've worm my other LL Bean slippers for over 20 years, I'll probably wear them more... I was disappointed.

the slippers were too small even with no socks on.

I was so disappointed in these slippers. I had previously bought these slippers for my husband and I and we loved them. They lasted for quite a long time. I received them today and was disappointed to find that the design and the fit changed. I felt like I had two left shoes on and had to double check that it wasn't the case. The soles are softer and seem to be the cause of my feet not feeling like they are centered in the shoe. Sadly this product is not the same as before. Both pairs are going back. I might try the moccasins but my husband is going to pass. What a disappointment.

I was so looking forward to these that I made up a little song on the spot as I opened the box (much to my daughter's amusement). But they were too narrow; the lower band cut into the side of my foot. I wish you offered different widths for women! So I still have cold feet, but, since the slippers fit my daughter, she is wearing and enjoying them.

Got them in delivered, opened the box, my wife saw them, closed the box and shipped them right back. I hope the return is as easy as the purchase!

Received these as a Christmas gift and was looking forward to wearing them this winter. However, when I tried them on the left was tight on my foot and the right fell off! They were so soft and felt so good when I first slipped my feet into them. I was so disappointed. And yes, I did check to see if my left foot was swollen and it was not. So these will be going back.

I bought these for my elderly mother who is a petite woman. She could not fit her feet in the slippers without my help. Once on, she said her feet were colder than without them on. I was so excited when ordering these for Christmas. I sent them back and now I am looking to replace them for my mom.

I keep looking for the NEW decription of the Wicked Good Slippers that says...They're back! The thick shearling, the sumptuous quality, even the old design with the triangle patch up top. After wearing nothing (I should say no other slippers) but the Wicked Good Slippers and providing them for my daughter for many years, the last couple of pairs I ordered were not the same. Either the sheep had a bad couple of years or the shearling requirement for the manufacturer has been modified for the worse. I found the stitching to be shoddy and the overall quality not up to LLBean standards. I think I returned them but might have just suffered in silence. I switched to the scuffs and am much happier with the quality of the shearling. Now I'm speaking out....please...take note of the many disappointed faithful LLBean Wicked lovers and bring them back to their original wonderfulness. Thank you for listening.

My wife wears a 7 1/2 shoe size. She tried the 8M, 9M and 10M and none worked for her. The shoe last seems to be very narrow.
