  • Supportive design.  My usual slippers are too soft to hold up outside — even on days with good weather. On the other hand (or foot), these Primaloft® slippers have the arch support of a regular shoe, making them comfy and durable enough to wear around the house and outside. I wore them to Pilates and then to the grocery store without a second thought. Even on icy sidewalks or wet parking lots, the traction kept me steady without feeling like I’d slip at any minute.

  • Comfort. Thanks to Primaloft® hi-loft ultra insulation, my feet always stayed toasty. The rounded, cupped heel also kept my foot snug and secure. Plus, the impact-absorbing OOfoam™ technology made it feel like I was walking on a literal cloud.

  • Durability. These slippers can handle whatever you throw at them. They’re lightweight and flexible so if you’re an over-packer (guilty), you can squeeze them in the corners of your bag without crushing them. Oh, and the best part? When they get dirty, you can toss them right in the washing machine.

  • Arch Support. These sandals are like a hug for your feet. I’m so used to wearing flat flip-flops that barely stay on, so I didn’t realize what I was missing. There’s so much arch support that it almost feels like getting a foot massage with every step. They’re perfect for athletes, people who stand on their feet all day, or anyone else who deserves a little treat during their commute.

  • Comfort. As someone who walks constantly, I’ve been searching for a sandal that can keep up. These are comfortable enough for my 20-minute walks to and from daycare, and I love that I don’t have to adjust them. They stay put so I can focus on spending time with my son, not fixing my sandals. 

  • Easy to pack. These sandals are light, flexible, and packable, making them the ideal travel shoe. A surprising bonus? They’re machine washable — so wherever these sandals take you, cleanup is a breeze.

Sidenotes...

  • While the Primaloft® slippers are durable, they didn’t hold up in a snowstorm (they are still slippers, after all). But once the snow had melted, these did just fine on slushy sidewalks and damp driveways. 

  • When it comes to style versatility, the OOriginal sandals come in 13 colors so you can mix and match your styles to your heart’s content.
