Default How long do your slippers last?

I usually get through two pairs of slippers a year, so 6 months for me. However, my second pair this year are falling to bits, so I'm gonna have to go for a third pair this year.

I don't wear slippers. I'm a barefoot type of gal.

You'll get dirty feet like that, and it's uncomfortable. What you need is a good pair of comfortable slippers, Kate.

I hardly ever wear slippers, it has to be practically baltic before I even consider putting them on and even then, I’d always put a pair of socks on before I went to the slippers

House Shoes is just a posh name for Slippers.

Garden Clogs are better and last much longer.

Funnily enough I just bought a new pair for the first time in about three years. I wear them all the time as well and my old ones were very tatty and splitting everywhere but they still felt comfy enough

Can't imagine never wearing slippers, would even wear mine on the hottest days of the year
