Ok, it's an old man thread but I need new slippers or "indoor shoes" I live in a garden flat, it's sometimes quite cold so am looking for ankle if poss with an outdoor sole so I can nash to the bin without changing shoes. I have been online but it's got loads!!! Anyone got some indoor kicks they would recommend? £20ish

Not cheap but rubber soles makes them fine for the odd trip outside.

Crocs with lining is the way to go. Lining can be removed and bunged in the washing machine.

Check out Mahabis - discovering them a few years ago was one of my best moments [emoji2][emoji106]

Not sure his expertise extends to comfort, probably rather in the exact opposite direction.

Baffies, please. A much better word than slippers. It even feels comfy.

John Lewis sheepskin for me. The champagne socialists choice.

Guaranteed to have a hard sole.
Thanks for the ideas and yes they are baffies! Been out of Scotland since '92 so my vocabulary has deteriorated.

heard of baffies before, certainly never heard slippers being referred to as kicks before as per the OP.

Trying to be trendy 😎 I read an interview with Lee Brilleaux where he referred to shoes as foot furniture. Kicks are trainers so I guessed indoor kicks were, slip I mean baffies

Was that when you were living on milk and alcohol ?
