How to choose the right slippers for you
Generally speaking, a good pair of slippers will usually have a thick rubber sole and be made from materials such as leather or suede (great for keeping your feet warm). A quality slipper will also have a supportive back for extra security when you're walking around the house.
But choosing the right pair of slippers for you will depend on your personal preferences and lifestyle. Are you after a pair of durable slippers that will last all year round, or are you seeking something stylish to keep your feet warm?
With a variety of designs to choose from, there's something to suit every need. Here are some of the most popular slipper styles for women:
- Moccasins - A great option for when the temperature drops. The hardwearing soles help protect against hard wood flooring, while luxurious faux-fur lining ensures a warm and snug fit.
- Mules - Mule slippers are a cosy yet fashionable choice for working from home. With little to no backs, mules can be conveniently slipped on without any hassle.
- Slipper booties - Slipper boots keep you warm from calf to toe, making them the perfect choice of footwear during the colder months. And with plenty of trendy styles to choose from at affordable prices, they're great for all ages - even fashion-conscious teenagers.
- Open-toe - It's no surprise that open-toe slippers are one of the latest footwear trends. Stylish and practical for any temperature, open-toe slippers keep your feet protected while giving your toes room to breathe.
- Full slippers - Arguably one of the best slippers on the market, a full slipper will keep your feet warm and protected all day long. The hard soles are defensive against cold floors and designed to prevent against wear and tear. If you're after a quality slipper that will last all year round, then a full slipper may be for you.
