A great example of classic design with a fashionable edge from Smartdogs Slippers is the Hope. This is a classic moccasin slipper look that has been tweaked for a more detailed and feminine edge.

With colored and fluffy microfur lining, your feet will sigh with pleasure when you put these on and the super attractive wool-like upper with contrast stitching that coordinates with the microfur will make your fashionable heart sigh with pleasure.

Another great look from Smartdogs that also incorporates their holistic approach to slipper construction is the Downward Dog. Inspired by yoga enthusiasts with cold feet everywhere this ballet flat slipper will bend the stretch with you no matter your activity.

The design of this slipper is totally classic and the shearling spilling over the top edge will keep all of your foot warm and offers a hint of luxe design. These Smartdogs are also outfitted with an outdoor and fully textured sole to ensure durability and keep them in great condition.

Terrasoles are designed for the comfort of the active person. Not only are they made from recycled materials whenever possible, they were created specifically for people transitioning from activity to relaxation. After a day of hiking, skiing the slopes or running after kids, we all need a comfortable but supportive slipper to ease us into a relaxing evening. Terrasoles are designed for that transition and as such they are versatile, attractive and super cozy.

The Tuckerman Ravine, for example, is available in a men’s slipper or for women and really exemplifies the Terrasoles design aesthetic and idea. The upper is recycled fleece which offers soft comfort to tired or chilly feet. The adjustable toggle closure means you can ensure a snug and comfortable fit and you won’t be worried about stepping out of them.

There is a removable foot bed within the slipper which offers maximum comfort flexibility and all of the materials used in the slipper are designed not to hold moisture, which means no annoying sweaty feet! There is also an outsole that offers traction so you can easily take these out on the road, ice or slippery ground without fear. Offered in attractive, but neutral colors, you’ll certainly find a pair that will work for you.

For the ladies specifically, the Terrasoles Rainier is your stylish answer to the cozy casual shoe conundrum. Patterned after the popular ballet flat, these slip on slippers come in five cute colors and can work with any outfit – whether you are hanging out at the house, off on errands or coming off the slopes and heading to a casual meal.

The recycled fleece upper offers cozy comfort and lightweight flexibility to the shoe. The foot bed, like in the Ravine is removable depending on how you like the slipper to fit and the outsole means you can take them in or out of doors. Super comfortable, feminine but casual these indoor outdoor slippers are great for everyone from college student to mom on the go.

If you’re looking for a more rugged style, Terrasoles has created that for you as well – in the Terrasoles Glacier for ladies and in the Terrasoles Snowmass for men. Both of these styles feature a super cozy wool upper with soft shearling which means your feet are encased in happy warmth.

As in all Terrasoles slippers, the foot bed is removable for your customized comfort and the materials are designed to stay dry and cozy. Both of these styles also feature a rugged foot bed that will give you the traction you need no matter the terrain.

As you can see, Terrasoles offer a high quality, versatile slipper designed to take you in or out of doors after a day of vigorous and fun activity. These slippers also make terrific gifts because of their luxiury feel and you’re supporting a company working hard to be environmentally friendly and responsible. So if you’re looking for a great, comfortable and attractive transitional casual shoe, Terrasoles are a perfect fit!

Fly Flot is all about comfort and conforming to your feet. Essentially, these slippers are designed to customize themselves to your foot bed. They focus on four points of comfort; light weight and self molding construction, anatomical design, shock absorption and anti-slip soles. While they use these tenets in their construction of casual shoes, they also bring them into their slippers.

For example, the Fly Flot Comfy is an adorable slipper that’s not just a pretty face. In many cases, a slip on slipper will slide off the foot at inconvenient moments – or they don’t have the support of a good shoe, despite how often you might be wearing them around the house.

The Comfy has a supportive, but removable foot bed and the Mary Jane strap is actually adjustable so you can make sure they fit your feet and stay in place. By not forcing your foot muscles and tendons to keep the shoes in place, Fly Flot has created a slipper that keeps your toes warm and increases your foot’s rest and relaxation. Made of boiled wool – the Fly Flot Comfy is also entirely “green” and comes in a variety of colors so you have plenty of options depending on your bathrobe color!

Likewise, the Fly Flot Cushy, also constructed of boiled wool and designed to be entirely eco-friendly, offers adjustability in a traditional slip on slipper. With a higher vamp and less feminine look,Fly Flot has created a clog-ish slipper with a contrasting adjustable strap. The earthy look of this slipper, and the colors offered are very appealing and versatile.

The contrasting strap creates visual interest, as does the adorable boiled wool button detail and the strap ensures, again, that the slippers will be easy to put on and off but will stay in place while you’re wearing them.

If you’re looking for a sturdier slipper, which many of us are, Fly Flot also offers the Garden which is really a super casual shoe that could make a great slipper and you can keep them on for your errands.

With a rubber sole, these can easily go out on a wet day to take the dog for a quick constitutional but the comfort sole and blended wool upper will feel more like a warm and luxurious slipper while you’re relaxing in your home.

The best thing about Fly Flot slippers, though, is the fact that after wearing them for a while, they are truly yours. The foot bed is designed to conform to your foot’s anatomy. Whether you have high arches or flatter feet, wider or narrower feet these slippers will support you in comfort and warmth! And it doesn’t hurt that they are really cute either!

Foamtreads does a great job at making slippers that can go from indoors to outdoors while supporting your feet and keeping you warm. This is a brand that knows how much time you probably spend in your slippers and knows they should be comfortable, supportive, warm and breathable. Incorporating memory foam and natural shearling materials together makes these slippers super comfortable and incredibly luxurious especially given the value.

Let’s go from the ground up! The soles of Foamtreads are designed to absorb shock and to provide protection for your feet, ankles, knees and hips while maintaining a breathable feeling to keep your feet from sweating. This makes a lot of sense since many of us spend tons of time in our slippers and they should not only be comfortable but also supportive.

The breath ability is one of the real ways that Foamtreads stands apart from other brands since I think we all know there is nothing more annoying than having your feet sweat in your slippers since then…they get cold again. The material Foamtreads slippers uses is also super lightweight despite being such an excellent shock absorber so you won’t be weighed down despite getting maximum protection.

Foamtreads also uses materials in the foot bed that have embedded antibacterial properties to protect your slippers against odor and other wear and tear that might be caused from the development of fungus or other bacteria.

We love a company that knows you’re probably wearing your slippers with bare feet and designs around that fact! These are slippers that can also be easily maintained by hand washing with a mild soap and allowing them to air dry. This keeps your slippers clean but protects all the materials from undue deterioration from your hot dryer.

As we move on up the shoe, we see the immense variety of materials employed by Foamtreads in their uppers to offer lots of different looks. Suede, micro suede, faux fur, tweed and wool blend uppers in different colors with creative and alternate trims are what you’ll find. You can find the classic slippers your grandma loves as well as some great, brightly colored slippers with a modern edge.

The styling of Foamtreads slippers definitely stands out. Although you’ll find the styles are classic – mules, moccasins and booties, slippers like the Juniper, the Ophys and the Sunset stand out from the rest. Using interesting color palettes and suede cut outs to give an updated look to a simple shape mean that the slippers you wear every day will make you smile whenever you look down at your cozy feet.

If you’re looking for a more classic look, you can also find classic clogs with contrast piping or slip on clogs with beige suede uppers and soft faux fur edging. If you like a clean and elegant line or a more earthy look, you’ll find an option with Foamtreads.

These slippers are good looking enough to wear for company and they are made for easy on and off but they are also designed to stay securely on your feet as you walk around. If you’re looking for an indoor/outdoor slipper with a different level of support and a wide variety of colors, shapes and textures at a great value– Foamtreads could very well be the choice for you!

The fall is upon us up here in the Northeast and I must say there is nothing better than coming down on a chilly morning to a delicious cup of hot fresh coffee in my cozy slippers. This is why I love fall. I’m sure come January I’ll be sick of my slippers but for now they are a welcome sign of fall and the cold weather to come. Choosing slippers can be more complicated than you might think – especially here at Planet. We have so many brands and styles from which to choose – wait, perhaps this is how I’ll get through my winter boredom!

So we’re going to do a little post series over the next few weeks on homage to slippers and the joy they bring to those of us in colder climates!
