Hallie Brewer · Answer

Fit Flop Shuv Leather Clogs: I buy a new pair every couple of years. They are my indoor shoe. My floors are concrete so I need a lot of support. I still feel chic wearing them because they’re leather. Don’t make my feet sweat, and I can wear socks with them without a fear of them stretching out. They often have sales on seasonal colors.

Jess · Answer

Glerups: I have used these as house shoes for three years, and they are still in great shape. You can get hard or soft sole, an ankle version or a slip-on, etc. Mine are soft sole, slip-on, in a delightful shade of cranberry.

I love them so much I got a second pair to wear in the office, though I did go for a more unobtrusive color.

You may get occasional sweater-like pills forming on the inside. They won’t damage the shoe, so I just pull them off with my fingers.

Anna · Answer

Stegmann Women's Eco Wool Clog: These are my house shoes and they’ve actually changed my life. I have hypermobile ankles and would constantly tweak my ankle when walking down my stairs without arch support. These shoes ended that, are so comfortable, can be worn with or without socks without getting gross, and are even cute. I hesitated before buying such an expensive “slipper” but have since gone back and bought more Stegmanns to wear outside.
