Acorn Nordia Mule Slippers - Boiled Wool (For Women)

I was looking to replace a pair of boiled wool mules I bought from Lands End probably 15 years ago. They had a cork insole also. I loved them but they were wearing out. These Acorn slippers are a terrific replacement.

This is my second pair, these slippers are also great for short errands outdoors in dry weather. Keep in mind that they do stretch out a little, after about a week of wear mine conformed perfectly to my foot.

It's hard to find slippers that don't have a sloppy fit -- I must have tried a dozen pairs before I found these. They are warm and supportive, and stay on my feet when I walk (no shuffling to keep them on). The fit is snug around the instep, which works on my thin feet but might not be good for a high instep or high-volume foot. The wool is warm without feeling too hot or sweaty, and the colors and embroidery are attractive. Very happy to have these during this cold winter!

Beautiful colors, nice solid feeling cork soles which also add a bit of height. Boiled wool is the best fabric for natural temperature regulation of your feet...no more sweaty feet!

I'm usually between a 7.5 and 8 so wasn't worried about going for the 8, but the back edge is right behind my heal. If my foot was a few cm bigger I would be stepping on the edge, but luckily they just barely fit.
