Lately I've been really interested in kung fu slippers, carts and slippers, so I took them with me on trips to Thailand and Japan. Temples and some shops require you to remove your shoes in order to put on slippers. They appear to be very well made, but are a bit small. I wear 10 in vans and vice versa, they were a little tight for me but not as comfortable as they should be. Maybe just check the size, plus they seem great! I still wear them so it's not a big deal but I'd happily order half a size up.
