Seams Separate Quickly
Size: 8-9, Color: Red/Black Check
They fall apart. The seams are terrible and almost immediately separate. Although they are warm and comfortable until stuff comes through the separated seams.

Meeting my expectations....
Size: 14-15, Color: Grey/White Check
I am a male with pretty large feet (Mens size 14US) and wanted some very warm slippers to wear around the house. I have nerve issues in my toes and if I don't keep my feet very warm they start to hurt. I wanted something both comfortable and warm. I received these a few days ago and so far they have done a great job at keeping my feet warm. The linings are thick and fluffy and the bottoms feel like they have a memory foam inner sole in them. The tops can either be worn up or rolled down. The actual soles are a soft leather-like material. They are thicker than normal cloth, but not hard like rubber soled slippers (I actually wanted something that was more of a slipper and less of a "shoe"). The only down side is that they don't really seem to have a left and right to them (both slippers seem identical), and for awhile no matter how I wore them, they felt a bit like they were on the wrong feet. However, they seem to have formed themselves to my feet and now (through wearing them) it definitely feels like there is a left and a right. I don't know how long these will last, but they were not expensive, so if I get a few months of wear from them, I will be happy and will just order another pair when these wear out. They aren't the most attractive slippers in the world, but they aren't horrible looking and they are very functional.

for polar fleece slippers with leather soles, these are quite nice
Size: 8-9, Color: Red/Black Check
I bought these to replace some Mug Lugs slippers last fall after they had started to come apart from barely a year of use (they were knitted) and have been wearing them constantly since then. The polar fleece does easily pill somewhat but get a hard use and are quite comfortable too. I wear these in the house most of the time as my feet do not like to wear shoes all day. They are comfortable, and do seem to hold up well. The only other issue is until I get my office chair mat replaced, these catch and can cause problems and have a little, but not enough to worry too much about. They supposedly have an anti slip design on the bottom, but if flour falls on the kitchen floor, not so slip resistant. I chose these as one, they are red, but also plaid and like them a lot. Hopefully, I get more than a years use out of them. I have had several polar fleece sock type slippers similar to these in the past, and the last polar fleece pair in Dk Blue and from Land End finally after several years of constant use, the stitching began to come apart and the sole was separating from the body of the slipper on one slipper. They do keep the feet warm, with or without socks and can, at times, get my feet too warm but I enjoy them quite a bit.

Great toy to play fetch with the dogs.
Color: Black/White, Size: Large
These balls are a great dog toy to play fetch with your dogs. This not the first ball I have gotten for the dogs. Just the right size and weight for medium sized dogs. I have less concerns about them possibly choking on these soccer balls versus tennis balls. So I can leave them out for them to play with. The are easy to inflate using the included pump. My only concern is the durability of the straps as my dogs have almost torn off one the straps of the previous ball I purchased.
