Perfect slipper -
I just received this slipper yesterday and I love it! It fits like a glove, just perfect, true to size. I did not find it too big or too small. It's very comfortable, like walking on layers of fluff all day. You could wear these for a quick run in the store but they are pretty fluffy and fat and don't look too much like a regular shoe. But who cares! They are too good not to wear them out!! The sole is very durable, even more so than it looks in the picture. I am going to tell everyone to buy a pair.

Walking on a Dream -
This is the best slipper I have ever owned. I pulled them out of the box, and my feet said thank-you, mommy. The most comfortable and a perfect fit. I was unable to buy these at Zappos because they were out of my size 7. So, much to my surprise I found them on another website. I ordered these down a size (6) because from looking at the picture, I knew they would stretch out. They are warm, have a wonderful cushiony footbed for added comfort, and don't slip off my heels. I get more support from these than any previous pair of slippers I have owned. I live in Vermont, so can shovel snow off my deck with them, and walk the dog as well. I love them so much; I ordered a second pair, as a spare. I heartily recommend buying these fabulous furry friends.

This slipper I did originally purchase for myself. When I received it, I tried it on and it was very comfortable and warm, but I had intentions of wearing it as shoes also. It had too much sheepskin on the outer part for that reason. So I actually gave them to my mom who loves them. She says they are very warm and comfy. I recommend these slippers.

Soft as a bug in a rug -
So comfy and soft. Do not want to take them off all day. There are times I even run out to the store with them on since they have very strong and durable soles on them. Great slipper for cold weather!

Comfortable and Cute -
I bought this as a gift. The recipient loved the slipper. The slipper provided the comfort she wanted after a foot injury. Would have liked to be able to get this slipper in a half size. Great for warmth.

LOVE these!
Like most of the other reviews have suggested...order a size down. They're definitely made large.

Warm and comfortable -
I tried to order these slippers a few months ago and my size was sold out, so I got another pair not as good (not from Zappos). The good thing about this story is my puppy chewed the not so good ones and the Minnetonka Sheepskins were now in stock in my size. I actually ordered them before the destruction of the old ones and I received my new ones the same day the old ones were destroyed. These slippers are great, warm, and the sole is thick enough to go outside in snow and ice. I will try to keep these away from the puppy! Highly recommend these for comfort, warmth, and being able to run outside with them on.

I LOVE these shoes!!
These are so comfortable. My daughter keeps trying to take them from me, so I guess I will have to buy her some. They feel great on your feet, keep them warm and are really cute too.

Warmest coziest slippers ever -
Love, love, love these slippers! Wonderful warm sheepskin, and nice because of the rubber sole, so you can also run outside in them.

Wonderful -
Once you put them on you'll never want to take them off. At first they felt big but they can be tightened on top with the lace - made a big difference. A great around the house moccasin that also holds up well outside.

Great looking and comfortable -
I loved these moccasins but had to return them because they definitely run large. I am a 5 1/2 - 6 and the 5 were a size too large. Very disappointed because 5 was the smallest size. They look as great as the picture. The sole would do very well outside.

Best slippers ever -
They are so soft, so comfortable, so warm. It's like slipping your foot into a cloud.
Mine fit a little large in the heel, but I kept them because they are so comfortable overall.

Very nice slippers. They do run slightly large. The outer shearling did not work for me. I am tough on slippers and I felt these would get too dirty looking. As for support, well they are slippers, not shoes! Most do not have support and are not made for trips outside the house.

I ordered these slippers because I need a replacement for my old Minnetonka pair, which are more like elf shoes with like sides and fur which seem to not be offered anymore. These slippers were really comfortable and furry but I found that the toe area didn't cover enough of my foot to keep it warm and my foot kept slipping out the back as I walked.

Runs full size large, and beware the low heel which caused heel to slip out when walking. I ordered a size 7 (I normally wear a size 8-8.5) and it fit fine. I returned because my heel kept slipping out of the back when I walked. Initially felt a little tight across the top of my foot/instep, but that would have definitely loosened up with a week of wearing. My reason for return was caused by the low heel, which meant when walking my heel would always be out (aka, cold). So, time to return! Thanks to Zappos for making ordering and returns easy though.

They run big, I wear a size 9 and the 9 was slipping off my foot. Part of the fur/fuzz looked like it was trimmed on one slipper, than the other.

I loved these shoes, I wore them outside and they ripped along the seams. But if you are just using them for in the house they work and are ever so comfortable.

Minnetonka sheepskin moccasin -
I was looking for a shoe/slipper/moccasin that had a lot of shearling. I also needed it to have a sole that would give me good support so my foot wouldn't slide to the side inside the shoe as well as traction on my hardwood floors. I tried the Uggs and some other brands. The Uggs had a boot like sole. Definitely to use as a shoe. They slid a little more on the hardwood floor. These Minnetonkas have more of an indoor RUBBER sole and has good traction on hardwood floors. I would walk just outside to walk my dog in them but I wouldn't use them to the store. This Minntonka sheepskin moccasin has a lot of shearling. Other brands that I tried had a similar appearance and a lot of shearling BUT for some reason they were not as supportive on the footing. Other brands I tried my foot felt more slippery on the interior and left room for the foot to slide to the side where you’re not exactly walking on the sole. This slipper with this exact type of sole was the best of the other brands (not including Uggs). I wear them around the house like a shoe/slipper. They are warm and my foot doesn't slide to the side in them. Would I recommend them. YES, I would. As long as it meets what you are looking for. If you want this look, and lots of shearling but not a boot sole then this is one of the best. It is a 3 or 4 on the scale of support where the others were a 1 or 2 and where the Uggs were a 5. But if you’re looking for an around the house moccasin this I found to be one of the best. I take a size 10 shoe and these moccasins are a size 9 so I would recommend buying one size smaller than your shoe size.

Warm and comfy.
Does a stylish shearling slipper exist? If so, this isn't it. But it's extremely cushy and comfy and has a sturdy indoor/outdoor sole. I wear a size 8.5 in a street shoe and take a size 7 in these. A snug fit will conform to your feet in just a few wearings.

I bought these, but had to return them because they were tight across the toe, but my heel was slipping out as I walked. It was a very strange fit. Additionally, the manufacturer tag was jammed between the sole and the side, so it stuck out directly under the arch of my foot. I could feel it with every step. Not comfortable to me at all, unfortunately.

My first pair lasted 2 years and I loved them. That's why I ordered another pair. I am very disappointed in the quality of this pair of slippers. The suede on the top is too thin and the lacing has ripped it out. This happened after 2 days. The most comfortable slippers I've ever owned. Very soft inside. I didn't return them because they are so hard to get.

These are so comfortable and loved them dearly for about nine months. Unfortunately when I needed to chase the cat and turned a corner the slippers couldn't take it and the leather stitching on the top completely blew out the leather from turning a corner (no really, I'm not heavy or obese). So, don't chase the cat in these. I bought another pair for my catless 80 year old aunt, figured they're safe with her. She's happy with them.
