Zermatt Genuine Shearling Lined Slipper (Men)

Beautiful/unique design, in fact the minimalistic design of the shell/exterior was the whole reason I purchased these, and I wasn’t disappointed. Very comfortable. Also; I think it’d be helpful to note that I have been wearing them somewhat regularly for a week+ now and haven’t encountered anything like the ‘immediate wearing of the lining-problem’ described by most negative reviews for this product. The lining seems sturdy and in place. Only con would be that they seem to run slightly small.

I got my first pair of Birkenstocks ever back in May after dealing with sore feet likely from high arches and unconsciously walking on the balls of my feet. I found so much relief from a pair of Arizona sandals that I knew my slippers needed an upgrade as well for the colder months. I found these and was a bit hesitant at first since some of the reviews found the insoles to be quickly falling apart. But I did a lot of research and knowing how often I was replacing my Uggs I figured these were worth trying (and cheaper). So here’s my advice with any slippers that have a shearling insole for anybody who has had an issue with it coming apart soon after purchase…Wear socks with your slippers the first 5-10 times so that your foot is creating a mold in the shearling without it getting stuck between your toes or the sweat from your feet making it pull out vs compress. I usually always wear slippers anyways, but I think that may help those who had the negative reviews. But these have become my new favorite slippers and I will be purchasing another pair for when these inevitably wear down.

I’ve had mine for 2 years and I still wear them. Too expensive to throw out and the bottom of the shoes are tearing. I have the cream colored and they get dirty quite often. I’ve washed them a few times by hand using woolite and a scrub brush (lightly). They’re very comfortable and keep my feet warm but because both heel areas are tearing, I only use them as house/patio shoes.
