The exterior is also fuzzy, which may pick up a bit more dirt on the trail, but it shouldn’t be a problem if you’re more of a city walker. They’re still soft though, thanks to a terry cloth footbed and liner and shock-absorbing EVA midsole, and a hook-and-loop closure lets you adjust the fit of the top so you aren’t sliding around. Vionic takes this idea seriously, and the slip-on Gemma mules feature a podiatrist-designed structure that’s contoured for arch support and deep heel cup to prevent pronation and even help realign your stride. It’s always good to have arch support, even just around your house. The exterior is more slipper-like than some, which means it'll get dirtier. The Details: EU 35 to 51 | Wool and rubber All models are also available with a softer leather sole if you prefer your slippers to stay indoors, so there’s a style for everyone. Not that we think you’d have any trouble with these, but for an easy on/off option or lower heel, you can go for the Glerups slides, or if you want extra warmth up your ankles, they also come in a boot style. The size range is extensive (an EU 35 is roughly a US women’s 5, while an EU 51 is around a US men’s 17), and there’s a variety of mix-and-match color combinations for the upper and sole. We also appreciate that they use a renewable resource in wool, rather than going for synthetic composition. (Especially important if you’re sharing a small cabin later.) On the bottom, a rubber sole provides traction against any roots or rocks you may encounter (though may be slippery on wet and icy surfaces). The wool build also means they’re naturally temperature-regulating, keeping you cool or warm as the weather requires, and its moisture-wicking and odor-absorbing capabilities make sweaty, smelly feet a thing of the past. Glerups are made from a mixture of merino and Gottland sheep wool that will shape to your feet, providing flexible comfort while still keeping your feet supported (yes, even your arches). There are hardier options with more traction available.ĭon’t let the “shoe” in the name fool you, these are some of the most comfortable slippers you can find, inside or out.
