Haflinger's slippers take comfort a step further, with a flexible upper, footbed, and midsole that molds to your foot shape. Made with 100% boiled wool, they are naturally breathable, making them the ideal pair for people with cold feet and those who tend to get sweaty.

We loved the fit but noted that it took a few days to break them in—though snug at first, the wool upper eventually relaxed and molded to fit her feet. Sturdy, slip-resistant rubber outsoles make them suitable for indoor or outdoor wear, so you can use them as house shoes or wear them on your daily coffee run.

The classic slip-on design is available in 12 colors, and each one features the signature Haflinger stitching detail. Though they're one of the priciest picks on our list, they're durable enough to last for years to come.

For a shearling option, opt for a brand that specializes in making slippers. These Birkenstocks have the brand's iconic cork-latex footbed, which makes these a great option for indoor and outdoor use. With a shearling lining, they will keep your feet warm during the winter. The hard sole can take a few days to get used to, but the durability and warmth of this choice makes them worth the high price tag.

With two layers of naturally water-resistant, temperature-regulating boiled wool uppers and supremely soft microfiber lining, the luxurious Giesswein Vent slippers are an ideal choice for any time of year. The slippers live up to their ski-lodge vibe and will keep your feet warm on icy-cold winter days—but they’re just as comfy during spring, summer, and fall.

These slippers have cushioned footbeds with removable arch support and quick-tie toggles that can be adjusted to fit your ankles. Color options include black, earth (taupe), green, hibiscus (red), ocean (dark blue), plum (magenta), and slate gray.

Some slippers are strictly for indoors, but these UGGs are equally stylish to be worn outside as well. The sandal-slipper hybrid is made of genuine shearling and has a one-inch platform. But don't worry, the platform is lightweight and not clunky. The shearling fabric comes in tons of colors, so there's something for all styles.

Also, though these are slingbacks, there's a convenient elastic strap. This is great if you have a slightly narrow foot, are in between sizes, or you're on the go. No need to worry about the shoes slipping off as you walk.

Sometimes, the only thing standing between you and pain-free feet is proper arch support. Orthotic footwear is a must-have for many women, and it doesn’t end with outdoor shoes. The best orthotic slippers are the Vionic Gemma slippers.

Of course, you should always consult your podiatrist first, but if you suffer from heel pain, plantar fasciitis, foot discomfort, or just crave support, a pair of Gemma slippers is a no-brainer. In addition to cushioned orthotic footbeds, they're also treated with Ecofresh, which makes them resistant to foot odors.

When it comes to soft, plush footwear, UGG is a brand you can count on. Not surprisingly, the Ansley slippers for women are perfectly comfy-cozy with an elegant yet durable design. These slip-on house shoes have 100 percent-authentic suede uppers with shearling lining and footbeds. We especially loved the durable sole that has great grip, even on slippery wooden floors. There was a slight break-in period, but all in all, these moccasins are a great choice if you tend to have cold feet and find yourself needing a pair of slippers that will hold up to the occasional trip outside.

Their loafer-style design looks like a real shoe, but the soft shearling lining feels like a cloud and keeps your feet warm (but dry, thanks to shearling's moisture-wicking abilities), even in the winter.

If you've ever visited a luxe spa, then you've probably experienced great robes, but also some truly amazing slippers. For a spa-like moment from the comfort of your own home, Parachute's slippers are clear winners. The material is 100 percent cotton terry and feels amazing for lounging around.

The cushioning is quite thick, so your feet will feel like they're walking on clouds. Choose between classic white or a stone gray. Whichever color you pick, the slippers are easily machine washable.

When pregnant, your feet may be swelling, making it difficult to find a pair of slippers that fit throughout the entire nine months. Luckily, these from Acorn are adjustable with velcro uppers that wrap around your feet for a snug, secure fit, despite swelling or not.

The velvety-soft terry uppers, contoured footbeds, and flexible soles make these slippers luxuriously comfortable. Also, the nonslip rubber outsoles add sturdiness and support. The wrap design would also flatter those with narrow feet that need a more snug fit.

Plush lining is a staple for cozy slippers, but for some, the thick insulation can lead to clammy feet. But the L.L.Bean Women’s Wicked Good Moccasins are another story. It might not seem like these fuzzy slippers would be a go-to for sweaty feet, but the shearling lining is naturally moisture-wicking, so any perspiration is quickly drawn away from your skin.

Aside from the unbeatable anti-sweat lining, these durable slippers have premium sheepskin uppers and sturdy rubber soles with added traction. They come in medium and wide widths.

This adjustable sandal does not skip on arch support, making it perfect for people with flat feet. The plushy sturdy rubber soles of this pick from Sollbeam are shock-absorbing and weight-distributing as to not put pressure on any sensitive joints. The adjustable strap ensures it fits your feet perfectly, no matter your arch size, and the sole also features deep heel cups, which are great for flat feet.

The faux fur offers warmth and coziness in the winter, but the open-toe design ensures your feet won't overheat. They come in classic, neutral colors to fit any wardrobe, or opt for a cheetah print or bright pink for a fun pattern to spice up your nighttime look.

If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, check out the top-rated Jr. Trapper Moccasin Slipper from Minnetonka. The classic moccasin design features stitching around the toe box and a woven leather bow that ties in the front. They’re stylish, yet laid back and will go with any casual outfit.

With flexible suede uppers, these slippers are impressively high-quality and comfortable, considering their affordable price tag. The faux fur lining and lightly cushioned footbeds add another layer of comfort while absorbing moisture and keeping your toes nice and toasty. Also, since the Jr. Trapper Moccasin Slippers have durable rubber outsoles, you can wear them when you step outside to check the mail, take out the trash, or hang out on your patio.

Final Verdict

We loved the classic slip-on design of the HAFLINGER Unisex AT Wool Hard Sole Slippers, earning them our best overall spot. The comfortable wool molds to your foot, while still feeling breathable, and we love that they can be worn both indoors and outdoors. To keep your feet warmer in the winter, opt for a shearling option like the Birkenstock Zermatt Slippers, which have a rubber outer sole for ultimate durability.

FAQ

• Can you machine wash slippers?

  Yes and no, depending on the material. Basic cotton or wool slippers are easy to throw in the washing machine, usually on a cold cycle and allowing them to air dry. Most other materials need to be spot cleaned. "If they are fuzzy or fabric and you wear them without socks, they may start to have an odor," says Dr. Sutera. She suggests regular cleaning and replacing when the soles start to show signs of wear, which is usually within a year.

• What size slippers should you buy?

  The general rule is to purchase slippers in your normal shoe size. However, some brands don't offer half sizes or the fit runs large or small. Check the manufacturer's size chart and read through any customer reviews to get a general consensus if the fit runs true to size.
