Bearpaw Women's 483-W Scuff Slip-On
I've wanted a pair of purple sheepskin slippers since my last pair wore out. Though I prefer a "bootie" style, since I have some Bearpaw boots that I've been very happy with, I thought I'd give these a try.
Pros:
Beautiful, rich color - deeper than depicted here - and I love the dyed to match shearling. See the customer picture I added.
Plush, soft shearling fur.
Good quality, I've had UGG's now made in China :-( and these are just as good, for a lot less (turns out they are also made in China).
Cons:
I have a normal (M/B) width foot, and these are just too wide except for the toe-box.
I wear a 6.5-7, and the 7 fit snugly in the length, so if you are between sizes, I recommend sizing up.
Made in China (obviously that's my personal view, I don't want to get in to the reasons why, so take it with a grain of salt).
Bottom Line:
Good value for a decent quality moccasin style sheepskin slipper, available in a hard to find purple color.
If your feet are a little wider they should fit great if you size up.
Tip:
I wear sheepskin slippers in all but the hottest weather. They keep my feet comfortable up to around 80º F

Width is a little odd. - M. Clark - Ohio
Bought these in purple. Love the color and materials. For me these fit a little weird. They are narrow in the toe, but wide in the back. My toes are pinched, but they slip off the back. I'm hoping the toes will stretch. I do have wide feet, so the width in the front would be fine for many, but I can't imagine these not slipping off everybody in the back. Length seems pretty standard. One other thing I'm not so crazy about is that the bottom is suede with individual "grippies" sewn in. There is not one solid sole. This would be a problem if you occasionally wear them outside to get the mail, etc. They are not outside shoes at all. I will try to wear them, but I would not buy again, just because of the back slipping off.
