I wear them almost year round. My floors are all hardwood and I find it more comfortable to have them on. I have worn Isotoner slipper style, but the last couple of ones I have bought wear out in the toe area. Suggestions on your style and brand? Thanks! | |

I love my uggs. I have also had three pairs of LL Bean's Wicked good clog slippers - they are WONDERFUL! In the summer I usually wear a pair of crocs in the house too.
I rarely go out - I'm home often times for weeks (and even months) straight. I like to have a pair of clogs by the back door for the yard and another pair just for inside. Since this is just about all I ever wear, I don't mind spending a bit more on them... |

I prefer some type of moccasin. Right now I'm wearing Minnetonka.
I like them to have some sort of a hard sole or at least a sturdy leather bottom because I don't like the feeling of being barefoot on the floor. |

A colleague's mother knits socks and I have about 4 pairs of those that I wear around the house. They're very cute!
I'm not sure what 'bedroom shoes' are! | |

If you are wearing out the toe, it says to me that they are either too small or you are dragging your toes. |

So are they the same thing as slippers?

Sometimes I wear slippers-fleece lined in the winter- and sometimes I just wear clogs.
I wear slip on shoes around the house cuz it's faster to put on my yard clogs or boots when it's time to take my dog out. |

Bedroom shoes is a new term to me, too, but if you're talking about slippers, I've worn Acorn slippers for years. They are so comfy. I wear the MOC style. |

OP, I prefer to be barefoot but mostly it's too cold here so I just wear socks.
As for the whole 'what are bedroom shoes?' thing, I just presume that it's slippers. My gf is from Texas and calls them house shoes. |

"bedroom shoes" had me wondering too - I assumed they are 'slippers' and I see that was correct.
I love wearing my bedsocks around the house in winter. I have several pairs and they are so soft and cushiony. But I don't wear them to bed, only around the house. |

I have a pair of UGGS I've been wearing for 2 years. It's time to replace them with something equally nice/nicer but for the life of me, I can't think with what. My colleague is married to a Native American and she says Minnetonka sucks.
I found some places online that sell handmade moccasins, but I don't know. | |

I must be so naive. Not only did I NOT know that slippers were also known as "bedroom shoes" and "house shoes," but I had no idea my vagina/ vagnia could suffer due to their use. As for my feet, I really like KN fuzzy socks, but they can be slippery on a smooth floor. My mom loves her Acorn slippers. I didn't want to ask about her vagnia... | |

Yes. I have hardwood floors as well. I wear flip flops all summer, but I just switched to my standard old lady, Mom wore them in the 70's, slide slippers with open toes and elastic darts in the sides. $8 at Walmart. Cushy and warm. |

ETA: I wear Haflingers. They're kind of pricey, but they last a long time and they have good arch support. I have heel spurs, so I can't wear just anything. These are great. They're wool, so they're warm in winter, but for some odd reason they're also cool in the summer. Doesn't make sense, I know. | |

I just wear some cheap slippers (mens) in winter and often go barefoot at other times. My feet tend to sweat a lot so I don't like to wear them in the hot months.

I wear fairly traditional, cosy slippers from about September - April usually - I really feel the cold in my feet.
That's not the say there haven't been occasions when I've worn, well, lets say something more along BethAnne's line of thinking |

Actually I'm surprised it took as long as it did for somebody to post that kind of photo. Those shoes that are impossible to walk in... Once upon a time I had a friend who showed me her "hooker boots". I don't know that those things were meant to ever touch the floor. Impossible to stand up in, let alone walk.
