Side by Side Comparison of: SOREL vs Brumby

Purchased these for my son, he is so picky about slippers and LOVES these! Thinking everyone else loves, too, because I have been trying to order another pair for my dad and can't find the same size 11 anywhere!

I love this slipper. It's the second pair I got after the first crumbled after 2 years (also purchased via Amazon). Unfortunately, I got a 10 and should have gotten the 11. Worse, I dropped a jar and stepped in it so splinters got embedded in the sole and i had to trash them. Perhaps I'll get the right size next time. Until then, I'm using the crumbly pair.These slippers are perfect and are a good fit for anyone who needs warmth and support around the house.

Extremely comfortable. They seem very well built, I'll update the review in 6 months or so and report how they've held up.Depending on the brand, I wear a 10 - 10.5 for normal and running shoes. My foot fits right into these without much extra space between my heal and then back lip. They don't touch, but I'd assume a size smaller wouldn't fit and a size larger would mean I'm slipping out of them too easily.I'm on the central coast of California, so it doesn't exactly get that cold where I'm at. Foggy mornings feel like mid to high 40s and these are plenty warm for that. But even wearing them when it's 60 outside doesn't feel too hot.

I was astounded at the great price...less than $40 w/ free shipping...go ahead and price a second pair now that it's cold and Christmas is just around the corner...they seem to have nearlydoubled in price. Maybe I'll wait til Spring for a second pair but all in all they are great, comfortableand warm as toast.

As winter approaches, I wanted to get a new pair of slippers that would keep my feet warm and were durable on the sole. These Sorel slippers are up to the job! They are comfortable warm and feel sturdy on my feet. If my feet sweat you can remove the insole and wash them if needed. They fit is as expected. I use them as house only slippers, but the sole does look durable if you had to walk to get the mail or run the garbage out.Overall I am happy with these Sorels and am no worried about feet being cold this or future winters.

I bought a pair at REI about 5 years ago, and asked for a new pair for Christmas this year. Unfortunately my wife bought the wrong size, and they were out of the right size, so I had to return them and order a pair from Amazon.I love these slippers; they are the best I have found. After 5 years the "fur" inside is all matted flat and the suede outside has spots from sloppy eating and normal wear, but the leather, stitching and soles are still sound. I love that I can slip them on without bending over, yet they don't fall off while I'm wearing them.Although people claim that they fit as expected, note that slippers are designed to be worn without socks, unlike shoes. So if you, like me, wear socks inside your slippers you might need a larger size. I normally can wear a size 10, but I need a size 11 wearing socks inside these.Update: I just received the new slippers from Amazon, and have to revise my comment on sizing. I have worn my old pair so long that the fur is all smashed down and the leather stretched, so they feel loose. But with the new pair that just arrive they are much tighter. I normally wear size 10, but even without socks the size 11 slippers are snug -- just about right. I certainly wouldn't want anything smaller.My only complaint (and I now remember feeling the same thing when my previous pair was new) is that the "Sorel" label sown into the sole is right under my heel and feels a little uncomfortable. Based on my experience with the previous pair, I know it won't be a problem for long.Update: After more than a year, the "fur" is all matted down again, and they are very loose on my feet. They were tight for a few months, but the fur mats down so quickly that they soon loosen up. In the summer, when I wear them without socks they are always falling off my feet. In the winter with socks on they fit OK.

My husband loves these, sturdy enough to go to the mail box or take out the trash. All lined, soft leather still holding up after a few yrs. Made well and money well spent.

Bought these for hubby as the 2nd pair. They are such good quality that they last for more than one season and he wears these every minute he's in the house. We're retired so that's a lot. Anyway he really likes this brand and they fit very well.

I love these slippers! They're beautifully made, very comfortable, and the sole is sturdier than on any other slippers I've owned. I'm actually amazed to find this level of quality today, and at such a reasonable price! I definitely will buy these slippers again, but will try one size up next time, as they're a bit snug, due to the wonderfully thick fleece lining.

My husband is very picky about his slippers so I was thrilled when I bought these and found that he loved them. They are very warm and he loves that fact that he can wear them outside, like when he runs out to get the newspaper. When we first got them they were too small, my fault and so I have to exchange them for a larger size. They process was very easy and we got them pretty fast.

I bought these as a gift. I ordered a half size larger than he normally wears [so a size 13, he wears a size 12.5]. They are perfect. Even after 7 months of constant use, he is still extremely happy with them and they have yet to show any wear or tear. These are light weight enough for summer and warm enough for winter, the sole is durable enough for the slippers to be worn outside, and the fuzz inside is very soft and completely covers the inside of the slipper so it is very cozy and comfortable. I recommend these.

These slippers are WONDERFUL! The quality is simply top notch. They are warm and comfy. You couldn't ask for much more. What makes these slippers particularly great is that the size 10 slipper I purchased actually fits my size 10 feet. If you've searched high and low for properly fitting sheepskin lined slippers like I have, you've probably discovered that you have to go one slipper size larger than you would normally wear to get a comfortable fit. That is because of the plush sheepskin lining that characterizes this style of slipper. The thick sheepskin fleece makes the area inside the slipper where your feet go automatically smaller. For most sheepskin slippers, for example, my size 10 feet would automatically require a size 11 slipper. Although this size adjustment is really no big deal, I've found it to be a bit disconcerting. I'm not comfortable wearing a size 11 slipper when I'm used to wearing a size 10. In addition, the added slipper size makes my feet look bigger than usual and gives me the appearance of having Donald Duck feet. Looking down and seeing my over sized duck feet has kept me searching endlessly for a pair of sheepskin lined slippers that actually fit my feet without the added girth. These do just that, fit my feet, are top quality, and don't break the bank. Yes, the exterior of the slippers is suede and not actual sheepskin like the interior (not a comfort or durability issue) and the slippers are made in China, but to date I've found nothing better, and I've tried on a lot of sheepskin lined slippers.I highly recommend these slippers. And, if you've never had the opportunity to wear sheepskin lined slippers, let me tell you from firsthand experience, you're in for a real treat. There's nothing better.Give them a try!Mark

These slippers are great....I've probably owned 10 pairs of these in the past 5 or 6 years. Just be realistic though...they will last about 6 to 8 months with daily wear. I wear them in the morning before work, and in the evening afterward. I don't work from home, so figure maybe 2 to 3 hours per day of wear. A bit more on weekends. But they are still my favs!

Nice slipper, good quality. Got it for my husband. We just had to send it back for another size 1 time. He is 10.5 so we ended up having to go a size larger instead of this actual size.

Arrived when promised. Have 2 pair of the full size ones. Really like these. Wish the back end came up another inch. Fit is good otherwise.

This is my second pair of Sorel slippers in this style. They are nice and warm with plenty of fleece. The soles are textured and durable enough for walking outside on the lawn or gravel driveway. The is just a bit of arch support, so if you are accustomed to wearing athletic shoes, then you may be uncomfortable with extended standing. I wear mine with socks, though they feel nice with bare feet. The toes do not breath much, so it is best to not wear them constantly in order to allow them to air out. The sizing runs a bit on the small size, so definitely go up if you wear a half-size or have long big toes.

I highly recommend purchasing a pair of UGG Australia Men's Replacement Insoles Boot Inserts. The one that comes with are not as good and tend to fray and eventually ball up.great quality, have lasted me a long time, even though I wear them in my house all the time. The rubber soles are nice and thick, which feel great even if you wear them outside. Again, they'll feel way better when you have the UGG Australia Men's Replacement Insoles Boot Inserts.Here's a link to the insoles I purchased for mine: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004AGVSNS?redirect=true&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_16

I was looking for slippers that were a) good looking, b) comfortable and warm and c) could handle the occasional trip down the driveway to get the morning paper. I have been wearing these slippers for about a month now and I must say that they are one of the most comfortable and best pair of slippers I have ever owned.While I was a little concerned about some of the negative reviews having to do with proper fit and interior fleece coming off of the heel I decided to get them anyway, finding no good alternatives out there. I can confirm that the fleece coming off the heel is a problem - after a month of daily wearing there is some coming off (exposing the cloth foundation below), but I plan on gluing as much back into place as I can. As for the fit, I generally wear 10-1/2 to 11 so ordered the 11s and the fit is perfect. In the beginning they were tight, but as the fleece compacts and conforms to your foot over time they just keep getting more and more comfortable. The sole is perfect for the morning paper trip so no worries there.Bottom line - even though Sorrel needs to figure out the heel situation (I dinged them one star for this), the look, feel and function of these slippers is everything I hoped for and maybe a little bit more, especially for the price.

Bought these for my boyfriend and he likes them a lot. The inside is not as soft as I expected, but they're pretty durable slippers, he wears them outside sometimes to run to his car, etc.

They honestly were very nice slippers but had to send them back because my husbands feet are much too wide. Its a gamble when ordering footwear online.

Although they were a little snug right out of the box, they are stretching with use. Quite comfortable and warm. I like to come home and step out of my regular shoes and into my slippers; must remove socks because the fit is too tight otherwise.

Great price ... fit small so I'd order one size higher if I did it again. Nice product. Only issue is no return support for small fit. So I'm hoping these stretch out. Not worth shipping slippers all the way to Utah for a $15 slipper.So ... just order a size higher ... and you'll be happy.

The quality of these slippers is EXCELLENT! However, they seem far too small for the size that they are. I normally wear a men's size 9 1/2 and I have narrow feet. I ordered a size 10M and they are much shorter than any shoes I wear. The company included zero paperwork and I didn't feel like spending half their cost in returning them. Since they're really very nice slippers, I decided to keep them and give them as a Christmas gift. I also ordered myself another pair......in a larger size. Oh..., as far as arch support, I don't think they have any but I have flat feet, anyway.

My son was very pleased with the slippers, and how soft the inside was. My only disappointment was that the slippers did not arrive as pictured, but a tanish color. I preferred the off-white moccasins. Still, my son was pleased, and that's what the goal was.

This is my second pair. After ~5 years the soles on my original pair started to rub off. (When the sole rubs off, it's a bit like rubber cement being rubbed off.) I know 5 years seems a reasonable time for the slippers to last, but I honestly think they should last long, and I'm hoping for better this time.

They seemed great, but were definitely way too small for my husband.

Overall these seem like they are fairly well made, but for some reason the pair I received was so small that it left over 1 inch of my heel hanging out of the back of the slipper. It was labeled as size 10, but when I hold it up to any of my other shoes (all size 10), they are between 1 and 2 inches shorter in outside length. I would have expected them to be slightly longer due to the lining. Yes, I checked the box, they say men's, so unless the contents were switched they are not women's size 10.Never got a chance to test durability, as I tried to slide them on, then took them off and put them right back in the box and returned them. However, my sock was covered in loose chunks of "wool-blend" lining, to the point I wondered how they would even last.Made in Myanmar. Don't know if that is good or bad, but it's not China. Stitching seems good, exterior material seems rugged enough to last.

I usually wear size 11 dress shoes. Bought the 11s. Shoe runs small about 1/2 size. There's a raised lip along the back of the shoe to make your foot feel more fitted in the slipper. My heel kept rubbing the back of this lip when walking around. I did not like this feeling at all. Lightweight, well-made shoe that feels a bit "bloated" when worn. Not much arch support. Had to return these. Ended up buying Birkenstocks instead.

I bought these for myself with high expectations. I had always bought cheap slippers and used them for a year or so and threw them away and got another pair. Decided I would spoil myself and buy a nice pair of quality slippers for this year. I got the slippers, They are a tad on the small side. I wear normally an 8 1/2 - 9 regular. These are 9's but just barely fit. The width is as expected. The fur lining is thinner than I expected. When worn with socks the slippers are even tighter. After wearing them all weekend in the house, I like them, but don't "love" them. The arch support, if you call it that, is nominal. Would not be a shoe I would walk around the block in. Great for indoors, the motor home or cabin. NOT for outside wear, other than to pick up the paper or mail.8/19/2016 Update: Slippers have stretched a bit but still on the snug/small side of a size 9. I like them more today than I did when I first bought them. They feel and look like they will last several years. I don't wear outside of the house or motor home expect to pick up the paper form the driveway. All in all, I would buy again but buy one size up from what I normally wear.

Had the slippers for about a week. They are very warm, but I wish I had gotten the ones that cover my ankles. Easy to slip on and off and the sole provides adequate grip on slippery laminate floor. The interior fleece is already starting to clump around the heels and come out in tufts. The outside of the shoe isn't very durable and can easily scratch through the "leather". Worried about the longevity of the slipper, but for $33, I guess I can't complain too much. Would absolutely not pay full retail($70) for these.

Work ok. Better than going barefoot

Hoping that they break in as I wear them as much as I can. A little snug to start with with a regular sock on my foot, forget about it with a heavy wool sock but almost perfect with bare foot. the problem is I wear heavy wool socks all winter long. Great looking slipper though, well made. Just hope that they stretch a little.

The slipper seemed like a well-made product and there is more than adequate lining. However, I sent it back due to sizing. I take a 9-1/2 and ordered a 9. The slipper fit perfectly on L foot but was too large on the R. Exchanged it for another brand that had better sizing.

After wearing 2 months product feel apart and look like junk

Crappy. Spend $30 for the UGGs. Material breaks down quickly.

Very poor quality they look old after 2 months

They felt so good at first and I had such high expectations! But after two days I noticed the lining was coming out in chunks... and three months later, they're a wreck on the inside. Completely fallen no apart and kinda gross.

These have been comfortable slippers and are non-slip, but not non-skid. They're falling apart and have packed down tremendously within two months. I wear them at night and briefly in the morning- usually with socks, which is why it's strange why they've developed a foot odor too. While I love the comfort and the feel, I will not be purchasing these again, because they're cheaply made, stinky and they leave marks on the floor. They're built as well as some Wally-World knockoffs.

I bought these to replace another pair of Sorels that I have finally worn out after continuous wearing for about 2 years. (I do mean continuous - I am retired, so I am rarely out of the house, and I have worn them whenever I am not in bed or outdoors..)These are a big, BIG disappointment, compared to the last pair.First off, I have size 9 feet. I always order size 10, to have a little roomier fit so they'd slip on and off easier.This pair, labeled size 10, is so tight I have to use a shoehorn to get them on without breaking down the backs !Are these even actual Sorels, or a counterfeit? Inquiring minds, and all that.

Waste of money.

Warm and comfortable, but didn't hold up well. I have had them less than 3 weeks and both slippers have the stitching coming apart already.

Too small

I like the slipper , they are too big . And they should fit as the size I bought is my size in every other slipper on earth

They were prefect the few days they lasted. The sheepskin on one of the slippers shredded near immediately. The sheepskin on the opposite shoe doesn't seem to be too far behind. All in all they seem to be a little less quality than I expected when I brought them, if I knew how bad I would probably not have brought them

These moccasins unraveled within a month of purchase. When I got around to requesting a replacement (yes I was slow, 5 months), they denied because I waited too long. Apparently, five months is plenty of time for the product to last. For this price, I would expect not only more quality but better attitudes towards customers. Buyer beware...

Fell apart immediately. Very poor construction. Very overpriced. Avoid.

Used 3 times. The bad arch support made them unwearable for me.

Not pleased...not warm at all.. a month after we got them the lining started coming out...would not buy again..

Slippers were tight and uncomfortable (even tho ordered half size bigger.). Also had to pay for shipping on return and restocking fee.

The slippers arrived defective a ripped up the side. They feel comfortable but can't wear and look bulky/nice. The seller is willing to return the product I've just had trouble with FEDEX validating the label. Had the slippers been wearable I would have given 5 stars.
