I bought a pair of these for my wife about 8 years ago. She loved them so much, but wore them out. Was looking for to replace them last year, but could not find them. Anyway, saw them again this year and placed my order. Acccording to my wife, shearling is super warm and cozy. Rubber bottom is good for stepping outside to grab the mail/paper or for a quick trip to the market. Cork sole conforms to your foot for custom fit. One of her all time favorites from LLBean, ever! You can not go worng with this purchase as a gift or for yourself.
