I purchased a pair of these at a store. I had only tried on the left slipper and it fit so the clerk went and got the right one, put it in the box and I went home - which was not close to the store. Once home I realized that the right slipper did not fit. It was as if it was a whole size smaller. I returned them to the store, the store ordered another pair for me online. When I received them, once again the right slipper did not fit. You could see they were not even sewn properly. They were marked the same size. My daughter, who I purchased a pair for and found them to fit (size 7) tried on my size 8 slipper and found that even she had a hard time fitting into the right slipper.
So, while the size 7 slippers seem to be manufactured correctly, the size eight right slipper is not. I'm truly disappointed as I have worn these slippers for years and just threw out a very old raggedy pair. I couldn't wait to get my new ones. Perhaps I'll try again next year.

My right slipper seam curves to the right and the triangle that meets the wool lining on top starts further out on the top of my foot than the other. Also, the tags on the inside rub on the arches of my feet. I have an old pair from the 90s (my mom's) that were top quality but we bought these bc my dog at the others:(.

The product received was low quality construction . One shoe looked fine and the other was not stitched correctly and puckered. Will be returning. Was very disappointed.

I had this type of slipper from LLBean for years - absolutely loved them. This slipper has changed. Tight and tag inside make them quite uncomfortable. Quite disappointed.

I was very excited about this purchase and they were great for a year. One of them now has a hole where the sole and the top leather connects. Unfortunately L.L.Bean do no offer repairs for them and they broke right after the warranty expired.
I would say for the price these are not worth it. Sadly they would probably cost more to repair than buy a new pair.

The footbed is quite narrow, to the point that they're really tight, and I don't have wide feet. The right slipper should not have passed quality control. The central seam is crooked and I've had to break it in carefully or my foot would be slipping to the side. Since the top is unfinished, the shearling lining is shedding already. This is not what I expected from LL Bean's legendary slippers. I won't buy again.

These slippers are not made as well as they used to be, first China and now Malaysia. Excess fabric on right shoe. the shoe is more ample than previous purchases. I bought size 9 because they don't come in half sizes which up to now was always ok This is my 6th pair over the years and will likely be my last. The label inside is now paper/plastic and scratches the arch of my foot. I hesitate cutting it off because it's so close to the seam. Not happy this time. I would not recommend this slipper to a friend, especially for the price.

I was very disappointed by how short the slippers were. I thought they would be Bootie-type slippers but they just sit too low on my ankle. It feels like you are wearing structured slippers/shoes as opposed to soft house shoes, which would be fine if that's what you were looking for. However I was picturing something softer. They are also very ugly.

After a year of wear (about mid October- beginning of May), the lacing at the bottom started to come loose. I had them repaired, and have since had to have more repairs done. I was just so disappointed that these did not last long. I wear them every day during chillier months, but I expected better quality from L. L. Bean. I would not purchase again.

My last pair of Wicked Slippers is my sixth pair of these slippers. I am so disappointed in the last two pairs. I got a pair about two years ago and the upper slid over toward the outside of the sole and the stitching wore and developed a hole. I thought this was a glitch, so I bought another pair. Same problem. I started wearing these slippers over 40 years ago and they wore for years before I had to get a new pair. What has happened to LLBean and their quality control? Very disappointed.

Good slippers, don't fit well for people with higher arches. Size was right, but can't wear them.

The opening in these slippers is smaller than the last pair I brought and is much more difficult to put on.

Seems the quality of the past is slipping. Can't easily get my foot into the slipper. Opening is too small. right slipper just does not "feel" right. For $89....not gonna work. Very disappointed, but sending them back.

I don't know how it happened but one shoe has shifted off the sole to the right. I'm now walking on the side of the shoe. I have no foot deformities and walk normally so I don't know how this happened. Fortunately I mostly use them for warmth and they are warm.

I've been hearing about these boots for years and finally decided to invest in a pair. I was disappointed when they arrived poorly wrapped, with loose shearling at the tops. They are warm but do not feel like they are made with the integrity and care that I associate with LL Bean products. Why must the tags be sewn inside for instance? I have also heard the sound of small tears at the tops when putting them on a couple of times. I wanted to fall in love with these slippers so much (and hope I still do) but I think I'll be reuniting with my former slipper brand in the future.

I bought these as Christmas gift, visually left is narrow than the right one. Just in case I had someone tried it, left one is much tighter than the other one, I double checked the size shows on the bottom of the slippers, it is8 M, that beats me. I've been thinking about how to fix this issue...

I have been a loyal Wicked Good Slipper wearer for over 30 years. I currently have 4 pairs. The most recent ones are not made well. They stretch out quickly to the point of allowing my foot to float. I think my most recent pair was cut wrong as I had extra material on the inside of one foot causing an awkward foot pronation. Please change back.

These are very warm, but they are not comfortable for walking around the house. Also, the top edge is too floppy to make it a good slip-on. Disappointed that these feel like walking on stuffing rather than a nice supportive slipper. I returned them.

Nothing like 'wicked good' of old. Too light on the shearling inside. Feels like I'm walking on the floor.

So disappointed in the quality of their womens slippers. I ordered them because of my past purchase of them. The new ones are too inferior compared to my old slippers. I will not be ordering again until they change back.

They are a nice warm, quiet slipper on uncarpeted floors but not comfortable because my feet kept sliding sideways off the footbed. Sent them back and am continuing my hunt for a quiet, warm and comfortable slipper.

The threads on the outsides of the slippers seem prone to wearing down and breaking. The stitching used doesn't hold up very long, so holes along seams should be expected. For the money, they really should last longer.
