Charlie and I were discussing how many people in the world wear slippers, so if you do, comment here, ideally with a photo so we can truly share in your slipper experience, and in a while we'll scale up from the 300 or so members here to the global population.
I used to own some slippers like that, with dogs instead of racoons. They kept falling off when I negotiated the stairs so I exchanged them for a more conventional pair. I also own a pipe, which I don't smoke, and will try to get a picture of me sporting both post haste.

I have some hairy slippers too, scary feet types. Nice and warm, and have backs to them which is essential in my world of slipper-wearing. Pics will have to wait til after weekend when I'm packed and unpacked again.
Those who read my recaps will know about my purchase of yellow shoes for £1.00. I now don't use these as shoes but in fact use them as slippers now and they are quite good.
Surely if you really liked raccoons you wouldn't want to ram your foot into them as far as possible and then walk around on them all day, so reported for racism. In fact, if you really liked raccoons you would wear wolf / coyote / owl or human -stylie slippers to do that to their natural enemies

Follow-up plz.
It shall be done (next time I return to the family home)
So I took my shoes for a stroll tonight. And just look at what happened to them. They are filthy. I think i got involved with something called a mosh pit?

The main problem with those comedy big slippers is not that they fall off on the stairs but that you're very likely to trip over them and fall down the stairs, killing yourself. Having said that, I had a pair like that once and survived.
I've worn slippers for years. If you go round in just your socks, there's always a risk of stepping on something slightly damp and it ruins your day. And bare feet is just rubbish.

My slippers are dying. I've had them since uni and I think now is the time to get a new pair. They're falling apart.
The problem I have is that I have wide feet and struggle to buy footwear of any kind. There is a real chance my slippers might break into two pieces before I get replacements.
