Warm slippers

Suggestions please. My feet are always cold in the house. Zapp’s has a style of Ugg booties for under $100. I’m guessing those would keep my feet toasty.

When it's very cold, I'm a fan of my shearling slippers:

I also like boiled wool slippers for when it is just "chilly". I think my current pair is from Garnet Hill.

Proper sheepskin uggs. I live in mine in winter and they last for years!

These - I have a pair of these at work, and I go barefoot in them everywhere. My office is a billion degrees below zero.

Then, I wear these in the winter as my winter boots. And yes, I have chored in them. I try not too as I don't want to wreck the fur, but they have made their way to the barn.

I ordered the Uggs. If those don’t work, I am ordering the ones Piedmont linked to. Made in the UK!

I have been buying these fantastic wool felted slippers which are made in Mongolia.

They have boot type pairs as well, but I like my slip on ones because they are easy and non-slip as they have suede on the soles.

Wow--Tuddy's suggestion is serious beyond belief and Baroque's suggestion is beautiful and really works for my climate.

Thank you all!

I wear Sorel shearling slippers. Over time, the insoles wear out, but I just cut new ones out of a sheepskin pelt and they last a few years. Very cozy and easy to slip on/off.

I wear Bombas socks and Haflinger slipper clogs. Adorable motifs

If you purchase the Manitobah's, and your foot size is a half size like me, go the size lower. I wear a 6.5 and I bought a 6. The lining packs down and the leather stretches.

I would have suggested UGG's too. Though, I haven't tried the other brands that others mentioned.

I have radiant heated floors - so my floors don't get cold . It's so nice to have warm wood and ceramic floors. I still wear slippers or socks but I don't need them to be super warm.

I bought fleece lined Crocs. I love the cushiony soles and the thick soles add additional insulation https://www.crocs.com/p/classic-mammoth ... OD#start=7

Thank you, heddylamar! (Lassos look so awesome for me!)

p.s. When you are cold and aging, slippers are exciting :D

Don't expect the lassos to arrive in any normal (week+) time frame -- they're coming from France. My husband loves his pair so much he packs them when we travel.

I have Allbirds, pricey but amazing (similar to Mahabis), and a pair of sheepskin ones (kinda like Uggs, I guess, in that they are leather with sheepskin still attached). The fleece wore through on the sole, so I added a pair of felted wool inners.
I might need to get a pair of the felted ones Baroque linked to next time, as the Allbirds are $$$.

Wool anything is amazing, merino wool even better.
