Right slipper is not stable.
End up walking on the side of the slipper.

You used to have wide (DD) width slippers but no more. Did people suddenly get narrow feet so you don't have to deal with those of us who have wider feet? I'm very disappointed that I can't get the wide slippers from you anymore. I'll certainly look elsewhere before considering you again.

These slippers run narrow. Squeezes my foot and is not comfortable. I never buy EE shoes, but I wish I had gotten these in a "wide."

Finally found a pair of slippers that I liked , no that I loved and the powers that be decided that they were no longer going to make them in wide sizes so I now have gone back to cheap slippers
Disappointed,

Order and tried on a men's size 12 med D which I had an old pair that has since worn out. OMG, way too small. Toes hit the end and it was so narrow the seams were under my foot. They no longer offer the wide version which might have worked. They seem to nerf all the good stuff, like their old fleece polartech slippers which were awesome.

I have been wearing the LLBeane slippers for at least 30 years now. I love them. But my feet have gotten wider now in my late fifties. I ordered the Med width, too narrow. I returned them asking for the wide. I was told "out of stock". You did refund my money (thank you) but did not replace my slippers. So I had to go to another company for slippers. I am saddened that I had to settle for leser slippers because you seem to have discontinued this slipper.

Sorry, but these slippers are very poor quality. I ordered a size 7 because I wanted them snug (I wear an 8 shoe), but after a couple of weeks I find I have to stuff the toes with paper so they won't fall off my feet. They are too wide as well, even with the paper they are way to loose. I am, needless to say, very disappointed in the fit. For the price I expected at least a year or two of good comfortable wear, and I've gotten barely two weeks of that. If you give me a full refund I'll return them.

I must be a glutton for punishment or a Pollyanna. I've bought these slippers three times and each time they are great for a few months; then the stitching on the right side breaks and I hobble around. Still wearing them but it's very frustrating.

My son got these as a Christmas gift. They started tearing after less than a year of light indoor-only use. We had them repaired once when they first ripped and then the rest fell apart soon after. Customer service provided us with zero assistance. You might want to think twice about buying these and about LL Bean's once admired-reputation for quality.

Bought these 2 1/2 years ago to replace a pair that I had worn since 1976. These are nothing like the old pair. At first they were tight and I continued to wear them because it was noted that they would stretch. They did, and they keep on stretching. They have stretched to the point of being unwearable. The fleece inside has also worn off of the footbed in several places.

Way worse than the previous version of these that I had. Couldn't fit my foot into them with the first purchase or with the size-up purchase. New narrow foot base. Bad tag location too now.

I was expecting a footbed with structure. They are completely flat. I have a very high arch so they are not comfortable to stand or walk in. These are more socks than slippers. Very nice warm shearling lined socks, but socks nonetheless. My fault, should have done my research. Should have gone with the boot moc.

These slippers were very comfortable but the soft leather near the sole failed immediately - maybe two weeks of minimal wear before I realized a 3" hole had formed!
These slippers look and feel great, but he quality of materials is suspect. I am disappointed.

I've had these for 4 years. I wear them a couple times a week during the winter and strictly indoors so they don't see a lot of use. I love them, they are super comfortable. Unfortunately, because of how they are designed (with the stitching at the bottom of the slipper) the slipper stitching began to wear quickly and finally fell apart. When I bought these from LL Bean I didn't expect any issues, I've purchased a lot of LL Bean in the past. However, customer service told me they couldn't be replaced with another pair. Very disappointing.

I purchased a pair of these slippers back in the early 80's. They lasted for years and I always liked them. I had to install new rawhide that held the top to the bottoms a couple of times but other than that they lasted like iron. I decided to buy a new pair for myself last year and did. They fell apart after less than a year of use. I was quite disappointed! The construction has changed and with the new construction method, I couldn't replace the rawhide lacing as I did on my original pair. I was quite disappointed at how poorly they stood the test of time considering the price. I wouldn't recommend this newest model.

We have purchased these slippers in the past and been very pleased with them. However, this time they weren't sewn correctly. They did not fit correctly. Both toes pointed in opposite directions. As if they were on the wrong feet, but they weren't. Had to return them. Still waiting for a refund.

I purchased these as a replacement for a pair that I bought last year. I wore the original pair for only six months and the stitching one the left slipper tore open. I sent them back and LL Bean did give me a refund. The new replacement pair runs smaller and may tare again therefore I will be sending them back for a refund.

The wicked slipper did not meet anywhere I thought it should be. I received 2 pair and both did not fit. When I put them on and walked around the house it felt awful and it was like I was walking on the side of the slipper sides. Return both pair.

My old pair (size 9, wide EE) were great but our dog chewed them up. Ordered a new pair last July when they were on sale but they were only available in Medium D (too narrow). Sent them back and called LL Bean to ask about wide EE availability. They said they would be making wide EE soon and to keep watching. Six months later, I'm still waiting...

I love the slippers BUT the pair I purchased was poorly made at the sole level. When walking, the soles pronate the foot inward and it is difficult to walk naturally when wearing them. I am 80 and a bit unsteady on my feet. These slippers do not help and I fear tripping or falling. I would like to return them.

I have worn these slippers for over 30 years.
No more. :(
Do wide sizes really cost your company that much more?
Would it help if I bought two pairs at a time?
Bring the wide sizes back. Please.

Approximately 1 yr ago, I purchased men's wicked good slippers. The left sole slipped to the right in such a way that I was forced to walk on the right side of the slipper. I thought it was just me. I have purchased this type of slipper for years and never had this happen, but thought it was just a fluke. So, loving the slippers as I do, I bought another pair. Now, the right sole of the slipper is moving towards the left, forcing me to walk on the right side of the slipper. BAD NEWS FOR $100 SLIPPERS. VERY UNHAPPY.

I have had a pair of these slippers for basically my entire adult life (at least 20 years or more). They were the BEST slippers. I decided to get another pair. BIG MISTAKE. These slippers are NOT what they used to be. They do not make the wide size anymore and that is a HUUUUGE problem; unless you have two sticks for feet, these will not fit and the sides of your foot will squeeze out the sides which will likely cause damage to your slipper. In addition, the tag they so delightfully added inside the slipper could not be in a more awful and annoying place. Looks like LL Bean's quality has deteriorated like their return policy.

Please bring back the wide sizing. The suggestion to go up a half size didn't help - still to narrow. Also, within 2 weeks the seems burst on the outside of the right slipper (probably due to being too narrow).
The previous version (in half sizes and wide) did not have this problem. They still are amazingly warm and comfortable. I am returning to go up another whole size. But if those don't work, I will have to look elsewhere for my slippers.

I bought these to replace my old pair, and had to return them. The leather is thin, so thin that they don't stand upright properly. I couldn't slip my feet in without sitting down to do it by hand as I would to put on socks. The fleecy wool layer is also much thinner. These are not up to LL Bean quality, and are certainly not worth $95. They were a complete disappointment.
