Giesswein Buch Women's Boiled Wool Slipper: Ultra-Comfortable and Healthy to Wear

The Giesswein Buch Ultra Comfort House Shoe has the style and year-around comfort that makes it perfect for an everyday slipper. This women's house shoe is made with 100% boiled wool, which means it wicks moisture away and is breathable - your feet will remain dry. It has Giesswein's Ultra Comfort Removable Footbed that incorporates CARBOSAN® cushioning, high arch support, a deep heel cup, metatarsal support, and a roomy toe box; plus, it's not only lined with 100% boiled wool material, but also anatomically shaped to enhance the fit. The Buch also has an edge-free midseam design for extra comfort because it eliminates chafing and rubbing. The outsole is durable, flexible and non-marking to keep floors free of scuffs; and it's water-resistant with added traction for better overall footing. The Giesswein Buch Ultra Comfort House Shoe has the features to keep your feet healthy all while keeping the environment safe because Giesswein is a proud brand that uses renewable and recyclable materials in their construction.

Overall: Comfort: Look: 
Shoe Size: Felt true to size
Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
Shoe Arch: No arch support

- Really like the look of the slipper. Has an elegance to it. Feminine.

- Construction is very well done. I am quite pleased with how well it is made.

- Purchased the slippers for arch support and general comfort. It is comfortable and warm, with a nice cozy feel to it. The texture of the slipper is really very nice.

- The walking experience, however, is very flat and if you have hard wood floors like I do, it's not padded enough, and has little arch support. My feet could not relax because of the lack of support and soft padding.

- I wear a size 8. Lengthwise it fits perfectly, but the width (I am a B) is wide. More like a C width. My feet flop around, especially with little arch support.

- I have to return it, unfortunately, because I really love the way it looks.
