Bought these not knowing if they would work better as shoes or slippers. The truth is, they're not best suited for either. They are too hot for indoor slippers, especially without socks, as feet start to sweat immediately. The bottom is suitable for outdoor wear, but the rest is soft and light with little or no protection for the feet. Product images don't look too bad either, but they look unattractive in person. My wife said they look like they would be worn by an 80 year old man. I'm in my 30's so it's not exactly what I want. I didn't know exactly what to expect but ultimately I don't like them and I don't recommend them too much.
