Brooks Ghost 16 deal: Frequently asked questions
Do Brooks shoes run true to size?
Brooks generally recommends ordering a half to a full size above your typical dress shoe size, for both men and women. That said, many reviewers said that the Ghost 16s feel roomy or run large, so your usual size may be just fine.
Are the Brooks Ghost 16s waterproof?
The regular Brooks Ghost 16s are not waterproof. However, there is a waterproof version of the sneaker, the Ghost 16 GTX, which is also currently on sale.

The 9 Best Slippers for Men of 2025, Tested and Reviewed
Today, many models blend traditional slipper features like soft, cozy linings with the traction and durability of an outdoor shoe or sneaker. To find the best options, we tested 11 pairs of men's slippers while relaxing at home, doing our daily routines, and venturing outside (if intended for outdoor use). We assessed fit, comfort, design, quality, and value for each pair over several months of testing. Our overall favorite is a durable wool slipper, but many others stood out for their style, warmth, and ease of use. A quality pair of slippers can make all the difference in feeling comfortable. And if, like me, you wear slippers as house shoes, you'll clock more hours in them than virtually any other footwear. At a minimum, slippers should provide support and warmth to allow for extended wear. I appreciate a slipper that's easy to slip on but that also stays on without much effort while walking. To get year-round use without the risk of sweaty feet, I tend to choose wool designs over synthetic materials for reliable warmth that doesn't sacrifice breathability. The Vionic Men's Gustavo Slippers are designed with ergonomic comfort in mind. The EVA midsoles offer arch support and reduce impact on the feet, making these a solid choice for combating foot pain and plantar fasciitis. The footbed and interior are lined with plush faux shearling, which we found breathable enough to avoid overheating. We appreciate that the enclosed heel and snug fit keep our feet in place to get the most from the integrated arch support. Still, the secure fit didn't prevent us from slipping them on and off with ease. While the style and suede upper lean toward indoor wear, the rubber outsole has sufficient tread and volume for outdoor use in the right conditions. Equipped with cushy fleece lining and sturdy rubber outsoles, the VeraCosy Men's Corduroy Scuff Slippers deliver comfort and functionality at a great value. The corduroy material used in the upper stood out for its softness and durability. We were also impressed by the breathability, heel support, and cushioning in the footbed while wearing these for hours at a time in 75-degree weather. The rubber outsole was sufficiently grippy and supportive on tile and hardwood floors alike. They're easy to slip on and off, but we found ourselves needing to scrunch our toes at times to keep the feet from sliding. We recommend sizing up if you're at the higher end of one of the size ranges. The Lucrin Leather Slippers are an upgrade in style and comfort from the typical house shoe. They slipped on with ease and were enjoyable to wear right out of the box. The leather upper felt durable without being overly stiff, providing enough flex to walk in them comfortably. We were impressed with the breathability of these leather slippers in warmer weather and how well the suede soles gripped different indoor surfaces. The thin and lightweight materials also stood out to us for their packability. We appreciate that the Lucrins grant a great deal of customization to select a design that best suits one's style preferences: they're available in smooth or pebbled leather and up to 23 colors. On the other end, the sizing is limited to three sizes (medium, large and extra-large) and requires conversion from EU to U.S. sizes (though there is a helpful size chart on the website). The suede soles didn't feel the most durable at first, but we'll continue to test for durability over the next six months. We love the classic and cozy design of the Wicked Good Moccasins. The plush shearling lining felt soft on the skin and provided quality insulation and moisture-wicking capabilities, ensuring our feet remained dry and at a comfortable temperature while wearing throughout the day. They stayed securely on our feet and they were very easy to slip on and off without using our hands. While the rawhide laces are more about aesthetics than functionality, they can help adjust the fit if needed. The thick rubber outsoles performed well in terms of traction on vinyl, hardwood, and cement alike. We were also impressed with the construction quality, with no signs of wear after wearing these around the house, outside, and taking them on vacation. However, the suede uppers give us pause on wearing the slippers outdoors on grass or in any scenario where they might get wet. The OluKai Moloas are a fashionable, yet functional, leather slipper that can be worn to relax at home or on the go. We found the lining incredibly soft on the skin, while the Merino wool footbeds provided excellent arch support and cushioning. The construction quality is evident throughout, from the stitching to the waxed Nubuck leather (available in several hues). The matte finish on the leather gives them a casual, but refined feel. The Moloas feature OluKai's signature drop-in heel, letting them be worn as a slip-on or loafer-style slipper depending on the occasion. We appreciate that the unmarked rubber outsoles are easy on indoor surfaces while providing enough durability for outdoor wear. A toasty pair of slippers is essential for enduring winter weather and mustering up the willpower to emerge from bed on chilly mornings. Equipped with soft fleece lining and parka-like insulation, the North Face Thermoball Mule V's deliver reliable warmth, even when temperatures drop below freezing. We found the fleece-lined upper collar to be adequately snug, yet comfortable, on the ankles to prevent heat loss. The rubber outsole performed well on a variety of outdoor surfaces, including loose rocks, dirt, and grass. We could see ourselves taking these camping or skiing, given their warmth and durability. For indoor use or milder temperatures, we appreciate that the collapsible heel allows them to be worn as a slide instead. The Birkenstock Boston Shearlings up the cozy factor on the brand's popular Boston Clogs while still delivering the same quality and functionality. The shearling lining made these among the most comfortable slippers we've ever worn, but keep in mind that the plush material can cause a tighter fit initially, until the suede upper is broken in. However, the quality construction makes us think they'll give us reliable comfort for years to come. We were impressed with how easily they slip on and stay in place. Between the contoured footbed and adjustable strap, our feet didn't shift at all while walking around. We're big fans of the arch support provided by the footbeds, too, making these a pair we depend on for all-day wear. While the EVA outsole is suited to variable surfaces, the suede upper limits their outdoor use in rain or snow. The Ugg Men's Scuffs were comfortable to wear right out of the box. We love how the wool lining feels against the skin, plus the warmth it provides without overheating our feet. The backless design makes them a breeze to slip on, yet they remain securely in place while walking—so much so that we had to make a deliberate effort to take them off our feet. While there isn't any integrated arch support, the foam footbed and cushion afforded by the lining are adequate support for walking around the house. We were impressed by the traction of the suede outsole on slick surfaces, including laminate flooring, as well as carpet. The suede upper is available in several colors, and we appreciate the broad range of sizes Ugg offers. I've worn these for nearly a year, and the wool design has ensured they are breathable enough to wear year-round. The material also helps keep odor at bay. We appreciate that the wool mix is sourced from farms in Denmark and New Zealand that have certified standards for quality and animal welfare. The minimalist style and numerous color options make them a versatile slipper for wearing with pajamas or dressed up—they're my go-to house shoes when hosting dinner parties. Though the leather soles are best suited for indoor use, this Glerup design is also available with a rubber outsole, but at a higher price point. Hailing from Denmark, the Glerups shoe truly embodies the Danish concept of hygge, which refers to a feeling of quiet comfort and contentment from the smaller joys of life. They're constructed from 100 percent wool (aside from the leather sole) and don't include plush shearling or faux fur lining. While I had some initial skepticism about the wool's softness, I found that they were quite comfy to wear barefoot right out of the box. They continue getting softer and more contoured to my feet with each wear. While there isn't integrated arch support, the ergonomic design, elevated cuff, and broken-in fit help support the feet. They are meant to form to the shape of your foot, so they're best worn without socks. Other Men's Slippers We Liked There were two other pairs of men's slippers that were worth consideration for their cozy design and plush materials. However, they didn't earn a spot on our list due to concerns about support and breathability. Bombas Men's Sunday Slipper: We love the warmth and softness of the fleece-like lining and their slip-resistant sole. Even so, the bulkier design makes them less packable, and we wish they had more heel support. Dearfoams Men's Fireside by Dearfoams Grafton Genuine Shearling Clog Slipper: Though we were fans of the grippy sole and plush faux fur interior, we found that our feet overheated easily and that the suede upper was prone to water spots. Our Testing Process The Travel + Leisure team tested 11 pairs of men's slippers in real-world settings over several weeks to find the best options for different styles, uses, and budgets. We started our assessment when we unboxed them to get an initial impression of the materials and construction quality. We paid special attention to the stitching, fabric, and any extra features like laces and straps. Then, we wore each pair a minimum of three times during an initial two-week testing period. From kicking back on the couch and working from home to daily house chores and outdoor activities, we tested them in a variety of settings. To assess the fit, we took stock of how well they stayed on our feet and the effort required to put them on and take them off. We also evaluated softness, cushioning, arch and heel support, and break-in period to rank their comfort. Key design elements, such as the traction, breathability, packability, and durability for indoor or outdoor use were considered throughout testing. At the end of our initial testing period, we inspected the slippers to make note of any signs of wear and tear. We will continue testing each pair for six months to give an update on their performance and durability. Tips for Buying Slippers for Men Consider the Style Slipper style involves both aesthetics and functionality. When and where you plan to wear the slippers is part of the picture. Many slippers on this list can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. In terms of functionality, backless designs like mules and slides boast convenience and air flow, but often at the cost of support and a secure fit. Opting for a moccasin-, clog-, or loafer-style slipper might be better suited for heat retention and extended wear, especially beyond the confines of home. Look at the materials Appearances aside, the materials used in slippers have implications for their comfort and durability. While suede uppers can provide an elevated style, they're vulnerable to water damage if worn outside. If you're primarily after a pair to cozy up on the couch with, more breathable materials like wool or shearling and a softer sole could be ideal. For an outdoor slipper, I look for a rubber outsole with treads that can provide the necessary traction while protecting the lining and upper material from the ground. Prioritize comfort There's some degree of personal taste when it comes to comfort, so it's important to prioritize comfort-oriented features that are geared toward your intended use and preferences. If your feet run cold, plusher materials and warmth may be top of mind. Whereas those prone to sweaty feet might value lighter materials or a backless design that supports breathability. I tend to wear slippers throughout the day if I'm at home, so I look for some level of arch support or an ergonomic fit that prevents my feet from sliding around. I also value a cushioned or foam footbed for indoor slippers to provide some padding between my feet and hard surfaces underfoot. For outdoor slippers, I prefer a sturdier outsole for enhanced shock absorption. Frequently Asked Questions How to choose the perfect fit for men's slippers? Slippers may run big or small depending on the brand, so it's recommended to read customer reviews and any guidance on whether they fit true to size. Whether you plan to wear socks with slippers should also factor into your decision on sizing. Given the more relaxed nature of slippers, sizing up if you're between sizes may be a safer bet for getting the right fit. What are the warmest slippers for cold feet for men? The North Face Thermoball Mule V's proved to be the warmest slippers on our list, as they are designed with parka-like insulation and fleece-lined heel cuffs to trap in heat. They're also geared for indoor and outdoor use. If you're after warm outdoor slippers, look for wool or water-resistant synthetic materials that won't lose their insulating capabilities if they get wet. For indoor use, faux-fur linings can also deliver warmth, but often at the cost of breathability.
