I do own a pair from side deal I think. And I do sort of wear them. When I’m getting out of the shower and walking around before I put my shoes on but not every time and only sometimes. I don’t really wear shoes either. Sandals yes, shoes no
@pmarin@rockblossom@yakkoTDI hey I am from the south, Oct is a Warmish month. PTL the cool/ cold months are few. Like Dec-mid feb, then fake spring starts.
Slippers are one of those things that I use sporadically, exclusively in colder months. I’m generally barefoot in the house, keeping a pair of easy-slide-on clogs at each of the three exits. This allows me to slip on something to go check the mail or go out to the garden to pick veggies etc… Not having shoes on in the house keeps the floors at least marginally cleaner.
In the winter time the floors can be cool enough that having slippers on makes sense. But mine get worn a lot less often than SWMBO’s. She was particularly fond of these
My “slippers” are leather moccasins. I wear them around the house and they also hold up to the odd trip outside (as long as it is not too wet). Also quite comfy.
@Kidsandliz Well, there’s Whenever I feel like it, where “whenever” = never.
It looks/sounds misleading, but is [probably] the most correct way to answer it. Or go the War Games route with “the only winning move is not to play.”
Indoors/Summer: basic athletic socks for walking; not too high on leg those are a pain. Or barefoot.
Indoors/Winter: heavier, thicker socks. Preferably decent comfort and wool component.
Outdoors/all-season: Crocs or related clone. Some lined. Yes I wear them when leaving the house, even shopping (I don’t do a lot of shopping unless you count the brown boxes that get delivered.) My favorite have a tie-dye print.
Outdoors/rare occasions: actual “shoes” or hiking boots. Yes some things you don’t want to do in Crocs.
I can’t remember the last time I wore slippers.
@yakkoTDI I can’t remember yesterday.
@phendrick @yakkoTDI You wore my slippers yesterday.
@phendrick @xobzoo @yakkoTDI can I use them tomorrow?

I have a pair right next to me! Wear them often, even more in the color months!
@mycya4me Those darn color months are horrible.
@mycya4me @yakkoTDI You mean like Ochertober?
@mycya4me @rockblossom @yakkoTDI Ochretoba is my favorite! But I also like Sepiatember except when it stays too hot.

When I’m wearing a smoking jacket. I don’t really get the actual use case for them.
I WFH so slippers from fall until late spring are a wardrobe staple, especially with the gripper dots.
I don’t own any, and I don’t consider this a problem.
Something like this

I have inside the house Crocs. That’s a slipper, right?
@Nate311 Can’t confirm they’re slippers, but they’re certainly not shoes.
[insert “change my mind” meme]

My slippers are sandals in summer and socks/sandals in winter.
I’m counting flip-flops/thongs as slippers.
Why isn’t there an answer, “I don’t wear slippers.”. I neither own nor wear them. That is what socks are for.

Fl/Ga line…flip flops year round here.
I’m always barefoot, mostly thanks to having

I only wear slippers after a shower to help dry my feet, prevent wet footprints around the house and prevent slips and falls.
