Detailed Review
The HAFLINGER Calypso Slipper excels in several important categories:
- Comfort: The soft wool exterior and fabric lining provide incredible comfort, enveloping your feet in warmth without causing overheating. However, bear in mind that the slipper doesn't offer extensive arch support, which could be an issue if you require extra foot support.
- Durability: With high-quality materials used in its construction, this slipper is built to last. The grippy outsole helps protect against wear while providing stability on different surfaces.
- Style: The vibrant strawberry color combined with the backless design adds a playful touch to your home wear. You can easily pair these slippers with loungewear or casual outfits without sacrificing style.
- Fit: While the slippers generally fit well, some users have reported that the sizing may run a bit small, especially for those with wider feet. It's advisable to check size guides or consider sizing up if uncertain.

User Reviews
Slippers run a little on the small side. I originally ordered by my shoe size but they didn’t fit. I reordered the next size up and they fit just fine. Very comfortable and provide just enough support. Love the fun calypso design.
Have had Haflinger slippers for years once I ‘discovered’ their comfort and quality. Made of wool which quickly fits to your foot shape. Plus an array of colors and patterns. Love my latest Calypso pattern Haflingers. They arrived earlier than expected and in perfect condition. Put them on right away!
I love these slippers. I bought 2 pairs over 3 years ago. I threw out my first pair this week. My foot was wearing through the heel and the seam at the toe was starting to split (plus I stepped in pet poop and that was the last straw). For slippers I think that's pretty durable. I work from home and wear these fall through spring all day. I pulled out my second pair and I'm back in slipper heaven. Yes there is a seam down the middle, but it has never irritated or rubbed. I usually wear an 8.5 shoe but my toes are long so I ordered a 40 (about a 9). It's a perfect fit for my foot. when I put on the new pair I noticed that over time the old ones stretched out. C'est la vie. The slippers offer light arch support and the wool is both breathable and cozy warm. I'm a fan and now I'm ordering my next pairs.
I bought my first pair of the Calypso Haflinger slipper in 2014. I still wear them although they are worn on the seams on the bottom in several places. I eventually bought my Mother-In-Law the same slippers and she loved them, getting a lot of attention for them in her nursing home - thye are now worn by my Sister-In-Law. Although there is a center seam. it has never bothered me. Amd the slippers form to your feet over time. Also, they are warm in the winter and breath in the summer, so I don't sweat in them. I bought this replacement pair since it was available in my size now and is not always available. I will continue to wear my first pair until it truly falls apart, but I already think that getting 7 years of daily wear from a pair of slippers is pretty awesome. I wasn't sure I would like such bright slippers, but that is exactly what I love about them. These always make me feel young and happy when I wear them. Highly recommend. BTW, these were shipped to me quickly and I received exactly what I ordered.
Many things to really like about this slipper - size, comfort, support, colorful design! only one drawback. because of the design there is a pronounced seam along the top inside from toes to top of the slipper. it was annoying, but after wearing them for a few months i can honestly say, i don't even notice it any more. LOVE EM!
I bought these slipper for a girlfriend for Christmas. She absolutely loves them. They are so cute and comfy. I’m going to order a pair for myself.I highly recommend these slippers for lounging around the house.I would not get these for someone who is at risk for tripping or falling. I hope this review helps.
This is my fourth pair of this brand. They are very comfortable and so stylish. Well worth the money.
Fast shipping; well packaged: product exactly as described. Will definitely order from this company again.
