    I’m a size 10 so I got the XL because it says these fit a size 10. These are huge on me and on top of that, these aren’t nearly as squishy as they were advertised to be. I need to return these.

    I was extremely disappointed in these slides. I typically wear a 9.5-10 size shoe so I purchased the 9/10 size and my foot was swimming in them. They are not soft or squishy whatsoever! In addition the espresso color looks more like a mushroom color.

    Comfort: NOT soft or comfortable. When I saw these slippers/slides from the Mellow brand, I was really excited to purchase them because I have not been able to afford the viral comforter. They arrived in a cute aesthetic tote that smelled like fish, and although the smell wore off, the shoes are hard as rocks and painful to the top of my feet where the hard material rubs the skin. I’m convinced the commissioned “video reviews” are ai. That’s how bad the shoes are. Not squishy, not pillowy. I’m glad I didn’t buy that comforter and won’t be purchasing anything else from this brand going forward.

    “Buyer beware!” Took forever to ship out and came damaged. Was told to put In warm water to get back original shape and did not! I shouldn’t have to do anything to receive what I bought in supposedly new condition!! They did not resolve my issue and didn’t seem to want to help with anything.

    Very comfortable when worn with socks. Without socks you get double blisters after walking in them for just 1 hour. Ouch!
