Slippers for womens are where our 1958 comfort know-how is easiest to spot. No dress code, no meeting to look right for. Just you, the kitchen floor and a pair that feels made for your feet. Mule slippers, like the Avianna in pink, navy or grey, slip on and off in a second for answering the door or padding to the kettle. Bootie slippers wrap the whole foot and ankle, which is what you want when the tiles are freezing and it's dark by half past four.
Still deciding? Ask yourself one thing. Are you in and out all evening, or settling in? Mules for the first, booties for the second. Below: sizing, colours, care, and the small details that make one slipper feel better than another.
Mules have an open back, so you step in without bending down. Booties wrap the foot and ankle for extra warmth. Moccasin and suede styles ladies slippers sit a little smarter: soft enough to live in, tidy enough for when someone knocks. If you like the idea of slippers you can answer the door in without a second thought, start with a mule. If your feet are always cold, go for a bootie.
Many of our womens slippers have a memory foam footbed that moulds to the shape of your foot and cushions every step. Soft padded collars stop rubbing at the heel and ankle, and flexible soles let your foot move naturally. Thin foam tends to flatten within weeks, while memory foam holds its shape better, so the first-week comfort sticks around. It's small stuff, honestly: a collar that doesn't rub, a sole that bends with you, a footbed that's still there in February.
Slippers are worn with bare feet or thin socks, so your usual shoe size is the right place to start. Leave about a centimetre of room at the toe and check your heel stays put when you walk across a hard floor. Between sizes? Size up for the cosier fit. Sizing options vary by style, so check the product page, and if a half size isn't offered on the pair you love, go up rather than down.
Many styles have a durable outsole that copes with a quick trip out, like the bin or the front step, but slippers are mainly for indoors. If you pop out a lot, check the product page for the sole. Slippers with a soft, thin sole aren't made for wet pavements and will wear through quickly, so keep a separate pair of outdoor shoes by the door for anything longer than a dash.
Cold floors pull the warmth out of your feet faster than you'd think, especially on tiles, laminate and draughty hallways. A slipper puts a layer between you and all that, and a bootie keeps your ankles warm too. It's a small change that makes dark evenings at home a good deal more pleasant, which is why so many of us rediscover slippers the moment the clocks go back.
Easy neutrals sit alongside softer seasonal tones, from classic womens black slippers that go with everything to warmer shades that suit winter. The Avianna comes in pink, navy and grey. Pair them with our cosy socks for the chillier months, or browse the ladies slippers collection if you want matching comfort for the rest of the day.
A short cheat sheet. Always up and down? Mule. Feet always cold? Bootie. Want something smarter for when guests drop round? Moccasin or suede. Nipping out to the bin? Check the sole on the product page first. Buying for someone else? Go neutral, and black is the safest of the lot.
Check the care label first. Most fabric styles can be hand washed in cool water and left to air dry. Suede and sheepskin prefer a gentle spot clean and a soft brush. Keep them away from radiators, which can dry out linings and flatten the footbed, and let them air between wears rather than leaving them in a heap by the back door. A little attention keeps a pair feeling fresh winter after winter. If you're not sure whether a pair can go in the wash, don't risk it. A damp cloth and a soft brush are safe on most surfaces, and the care label always has the final word.
They're a safe bet for birthdays, Mother's Day and Christmas, because almost everyone has cold feet at some point. A neutral colour is the easy choice, and sizing is simpler than with shoes since slippers start from your usual size. Delivery is free over £50 on the saver service, with express at £5.99 if you need it sooner. If the size is off, our returns and exchanges page has the details.
A slipper is the brief with the dress code removed. Nobody needs to look at your feet, so everything goes into how they feel: the footbed, the collar, the sole. It's the same thing we've been after all along, just without the audience. If the rest of your shoe wardrobe is Hush Puppies, it makes sense for the pair you wear most at home to be as well.
