In true Olukai style, this is one of the most comfortable shoes I own. These slippers are true to size and of very high quality; They use fine materials and feel very good. They have high-quality cushioned insoles and feel incredibly comfortable. I would call them real slippers. They are luxurious in the sense that they make them a bit delicate and I don't want to wear them outside. Olukai has leather slippers if you want something more durable. I chose these wool slippers because I work from home and wear slippers all day to keep me warm. The wool is amazing, it keeps my feet warm but allows them to breathe to avoid sweating. Best of all I can hand wash them when they get rough; This is a big advantage over leather slippers. Are they $100? Probably no. Are these the best slippers money can buy? Absolutely.
