Side by Side Comparison of: Brumby vs SOREL

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

Love them. Previous version still going strong (no holes etc) but after 7 years thought it was time to refresh them.

Well constructed and true to size. Warm and comfortable with a great non-slip sole. This is easily one of the best pair slippers I have ever used.

I really like these slippers. They fit well and are very comfortable to wear. I would recommend buying them. I haven't had them long enough to discuss wear and tear but they seem to be a quality product.

I was unsure about how this brand was sized but took a chance with a larger size. I was glad that I did. I really like the way these slippers look & feel. They are both comfortable & sturdy & I can go outside with the dogs, pickup the paper or just lay around the house. I'm very happy with them.

We were concerned these might not fit. My husband has a wide foot and typically wears size 8 wide or 8 1/2 medium. Thought size 9 would swim on him and size 8 be too narrow. Took a chance and ordered the size 8. Great fit. He can even wear these with a light sock, plenty of width. Look like good quality slippers and well made.

I have for two decades been dedicated to one of the "boiled wool" slippers that is soooooooooooo comfortable... last time I got a pair with indoor/outdoor soles instead of the wool with non-skid dots. Still like those slippers, BUT the lifespan of the latest pair disappointed so I decided to try "real leather" uppers with an indoor/outdoor sole and bought these Sorel slippers. I had read several of the Amazon reviews so I was not alarmed when they were SNUG on arrival... I've worn them about a month and they have "adjusted" to my feet nicely. VERY COMFORTABLE... repeat COMFORT seems EQUAL to my expectations... but a bit warmer than boiled wools... good for winter months but maybe too warm for Southern summers. Might be time to have Sorels for winter and a lighter type for the rest of the year. A final tip... it the idea of fleece-lined SNUG slippers that seem very true to exact size would bother because "loose slippers" that feet can roam in is preferred, I would suggest ordering the next size larger than exact shoe size. That should work out well because initial fit would seem "OK" and loosen some during that first month.

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.

I really like these slippers. They are very comfortable, and are easy to slip my feet into. I also like the fact that the little raised bit at the back means that the slippers do not flap about when I am walking. The material that the sole is made from grips the ground very well. I took off one star as I was lead to believe that the woolen inner sole was removable, and I could wear the slipper without it. The inner sole is removable (I assume so it can be washed), but the slipper would be uncomfortable to wear without it in.

Amazing comfort and upper build quality. Sole will wear out and then bunch and tear, as others have said. I've had mine for nearly 3 years, but only wore them during the cold months. The sole wears out quickly. The upper and inside are still in great shape. They would probably last another 3-4 years if the sole weren't so bad. Still, I loved the comfort and the quality enough to buy another pair of Sorel slippers, although I went with the Dude Moc for a better sole.

Nice slippers mainly for this coming winter.

Good fit. I have a low volume foot so the slippers are a little loose. Still very happy with purchase.

I have narrow feet with high arches and although these are super-soft, my feet slip out while walking. I'd go for a half-size smaller than your reg size if you have narrow feet. Comfortable otherwise!

My second pair

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.

I've had these slippers in the past but in black and they were great and lasted a few years. But when I got these in Bark (Black wasn't available), they stretched out within a few weeks. Disappointed..

The slippers are good quality, but I have to return them because they were too narrow for my dad. If you have wide feet, I would find a different slipper.

Ordered another pair of these as my original ones are finally wearing out. This time around the sizing feels smaller. Ordered the same size as I've had...but the new ones are definitely 1/2 size smaller.

I had an identical pair from a couple years ago that got lost so i ordered this second pair. The inside lining is different, cheaper, not odor repelling like the previous one. Washed them so I could get smell out and i'm now required to be careful not to wear them too much for fear of stinking them up again. Tired of people cutting corners. Customers are smart enough to know the dollar doesn't buy as much as it did so just charge more instead of cheapening product like so many are doing these days.

one slipper is much wider than the other.

I bought these for my boyfriend because his feet always get cold. Love that the inserts are removable and thus washable. The lining wasn't as furry as I thought it would be, but he insists that they are really warm and wonderful. Very happy with these slippers! Great neutral color as well.Update a few months later!! The fleece lining is indeed peeling off. I'm so disappointed since these were pretty expensive! Wish the inside would match the durability of the outside. Would no longer recommend.

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

I loved these until the soles started peeling away. They look great and the fit is perfect for a slipper. I got a size 9 and I wear a size 9 for regular shoes and sneakers. I got these three months ago and have only worn them indoor on carpeted floors. Last week the sole near the toe began to peel away. At first I thought this was some excess rubber that was coming off, but the way they are constructed it looks like the sole will peel away within a week or two. I'm very disappointed.

Purchased Size 11 (wear 10 or 10.5) per advice from sizing information or comments...They stretched out to the point that my feet were swimming in them...Donated that pair after a week or so...Liked the clog style and workmanship so purchased a size 10...Same result although because of the size difference not as great...None-the-less they too are destined for donation...Purchased another pair from a different maker in size 10 and they are holding there shape...

After little more then a year of use, the sole got teared. Only used it indoors and only during cold months.

I am thinking of returning these, as they are too wide.

They were too tight on my foot and I think slippers should be somewhat loose. Got a refund with no problemo.

I bought these slippers for my husband. They fit as expected but he found them to be uncomfortable. He says it's like wearing socks, almost to the point of hurting his feet. I was going to return the slippers but was told if I did that I could be charged a 50% restock fee if they were worn. Of course they were worn, in the house for part of the day, how else are we going to find out if they fit ok?I have ordered shoes, slippers, etc online in the past and had no problem returning an item. Really, footwear on line? What? Are you serious? I have never dealt with a company like this before. I can say one thing for sure, I will never order from this company again. By the way, my husband decided to keep these uncomfortable slippers verses losing $30.00+.

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.

Incomplete - ordered a 12 and got an 8 so now I have the pleasure of sending them back

Slipper footbed flattens out quickly. No support at all. My husband Very disappointed in this product. Bought for him as a Christmas gift... less than 3 months of light wear and he is tossing out. Sorrel usually a reputable brand. Stay away!

Had for 1 month and the bottoms are worn out at heels, Have only worn them about 20 times, was waiting for cooler weather. I have had Sorel's for years, don't know if they are using cheaper material on the bottoms. I may think twice before I spend $80 for slippers, very disappointed.

I bought these via amazon prime for $70 and a week later they are $50, but that is besides the point. They appear to be great quality until you wear them for a few days and realize how bad the lining wears off down to the bare material (suede). I have had them for less than a week and they are getting returned. I thought UGGS were overpriced and didn't want to purchase them agaIn, but they lasted me a year not a week. Do not buy these over priced slippers!

Worn five times since Christmas. The inside sherpa of the shoe has started to come out leaving places throughout the inside of the shoe with no sherpa. Poor construction. Extremely disappointed. Would not recommend this product to others.
