The first thing to say about these slippers is that they look great, are supple and have proven to be quite durable – the soles not ‘marking up’ or cracking when used to brief walks to the garage and back or down the garden and back.
Initially they fit snugly onto the foot and I would also say that it is true that the ‘open backed’ design does help prevent your feet from sweating as much as with normal slippers.
The problem starts for me though with the memory foam. On the plus side of things the memory foam does ‘have a good memory’ and after you have worn these a few times the foam does seem to form itself into a permanent ‘mould’ of your foot/feet. This is all very well but by doing this it means that the foam in effect ‘shrinks in size’ somewhat. Slippers that initially fit snuggly therefore become a bit more ‘roomy’ inside and the snag with that being that with no proper back to these slippers unless your foot fits tightly into the slipper they have a tendency to ‘flop about’ when walking in them.
Another issue I have found associated with these slippers is to do with the way that wearing socks (as most people who comes home from work do) also stretches the body of the slippers as well and thus magnifies the ‘memory foam’ issue.
To be fair, I wouldn’t say that either of these issues are a big problem but if you are not too good on your feet or have poor mobility walking down stairs (not so much going up because the weight of your whole foot is pressing against the inside of the slipper) can be a little more tricky because you need to make sure that your foot does not come out.
Because I have had this issue myself I have also found that the ‘slipping’ has gradually broken down the back of the slipper so that the ‘ridge’ that initally helped to hold your foot in place relatively snugly has been made redundant.
On the upside I have not had any of the usual problems you get with ‘competitively priced’ slippers. By that I mean the memory foam and covering of it is still in one piece and has not come ‘unglued’ (not applicable here anyway I don’t think as these are stitched) or ‘rucked up’. The lining of the slippers has stained a little but then I have not gotten around yet to washing my pair so that may well rectify itself when I do.
As far as washing them goes I don’t see a problem. As these are stitched together and of a flexible nature I am sure that they will handle a spin in the washing machine o.k. and dry out to be as good as ever.
Overall, while I have a few reservations and feel the design of these could be improved, I have kept to a 4 star rating because I feel most people will probably be delighted with these. The insides are nice and soft and I can see them being fairly durable – so they are good value on that front. My one main issue is with how mine have stretched and as a result can be now on occasion ‘slip up and down’ a bit.

I have to say, the RockDove Men’s Original Two-Tone Memory Foam Slipper has completely transformed my comfort game at home. You know how sometimes you just need that extra bit of coziness after a long day? Well, these slippers deliver just that and more. From the moment I slipped my feet into them, it felt like walking on a plush cloud.In my experience, finding the right slipper can be a bit of a challenge. I’ve tried several pairs over the years, from various brands, but none quite matched the balance of support and comfort offered by RockDove. The memory foam molds perfectly to the shape of your feet, providing all-around support, which is something I didn’t realize I needed until I experienced it first-hand.One thing that really stood out to me was the quality of the materials used. The breathable cotton upper is super soft yet durable, while the inner lining keeps my feet warm without overheating. It’s perfect for wearing around the house, especially during those chillier months.Moreover, I appreciate the non-slip rubber sole. It’s sturdy enough that I can casually step outside to grab the mail or take the trash out, without worrying about slipping. I often find myself wandering around the house, enjoying the soothing comfort these slippers provide.Overall, I tend to think these are well worth the purchase. If you’re in search of a reliable and ultra-comfy indoor slipper, RockDove could very well be the answer. Plus, there’s something quite charming about the two-tone design, adding a touch of style to practicality. I’m honestly thrilled to have found them! It’s like I’ve found a new best friend for my feet.

For about the first time in several years I’ve actually found slippers that are exactly as described – they comfortably fit my long, relatively slim feet which are currently bulked out with dressings (basically 3 layer, non compression dressings for vascular disease and peripheral neural neuropathy). The delay in writing this review is due to me following the manufacturer’s / distributor’s advice, giving the slippers time to adjust to my foot shape and size, and allowing the memory foam base to shape itself around the soles of my feet and toes. The slippers are quite excellent for my needs, being very, very comfortable and beautifully warm whilst being worn inside my, at times chilly, first floor maisonette – they’ve also survived several sub zero forays to my garage, maintaining their thermal retentive qualities quite adequately. These slippers are definitely one of my better purchases in recent years and are worth every penny expended.
