Give Them A Week To Conform
At first, I was very disappointed because I really need a good pair of slippers or two. When these arrived I put them on and my feet went over the back edge and the back was too small. I said to myself with high hopes and much doubt that maybe they would break in and work out. Guess what, it's a week or two later and they fit perfectly. I love that you can just slip your feet in without having to pull up the backs. The quality is very good and these are great for me. They also have a nice rubber sole. I'm very happy with them! Okay, I'm going to write about the embarrassing part, you know how the slippers that surround your feet get hot and sweaty and eventually start to smell and you have to put powder in them? These aren't hot and they don't smell. Keepers!

Soft, inexpensive, but probably not the best for summer
I originally bought these to use as my everyday slippers, but I've since switched to open-ended sandals better suited for the summer. They're comfortable and keep your feet warm. They're also priced much cheaper than other Born shoes, a relatively new brand from Germany. I had some trouble with the plastic ties used for the packaging -- I prefer to get them out completely, but attempting that on these would likely destroy or damage the slippers, so I just cut the ties as short as possible. If you're looking for an inexpensive, soft pair of slippers, these will do.

Super comfy
These moon shoes are great. Very comfy to wear and really help with the arthralgia in my feet when I would otherwise be hobbling around my house in my socks. I don't get the pull string, but could be useful if you have very narrow/skinny feet I guess. I wear a 10.5 wide shoe and the 10-11 fit perfectly. The outsole is a fairly thin, very plyable rubber, making it grippy and very flexible, which is perfect for indoors though it leaves a moon-shoe print behind on my carpet.My only complaint is the packaging uses the little plastic tag fasteners THROUGH the bottom of the outsole in a way you cannot remove part of the tag, so you just have to cut it as close as possible. Not that I need them to be water proof or anything, but there are 2 little holes in the bottom of my outsoles with a little plastic nub sticking out now.

Don’t buy.
Uncomfortable sole cheaply made. trading on a name I thought I knew. My mistake.

Tighter for wider foot, but quality feel.
These slippers feel nice - they have decent padding underfoot, a harder sole that actually grips floors quite well without leaving marks along the way. The fit is nice, though if you have a wider foot these may feel a bit snug on initial wear. Would recommend this to anyone who were to ask me about them and for the price I'd call it a solid value.

Cool idea sippers!
These are so cool! They're regular slippers, but then you pull on the string and they resize to your foot! It's like a neck piece on a parka. Need more coverage? Adjust the fit! So if you stretch out your slippers, you have an option to readjust the size of these! They're comfy, have not flown off the foot yet. Not slippery on hardwood floor or tile/laminate. And if they dirty, they do seem to be washing machine safe. So win win!

Comfortable but...
I got these for my partner. He said they feel comfortable but they don't stay on the way they should. He already fell because the one slipper got caught on the step. They have a nice feel and look good but it's just getting them to stay on. We ordered a large size and he's a size 9+ which is a large size. If you're looking for comfortable, yes but if you're looking for a long time slipper, maybe not.
