Not the same as 5 years ago. Popularity rises; Price sky rockets; Quality drops.
Not the same as 5 years ago. Popularity rises; Price sky rockets; Quality drops. I don’t like the feel of the quality on these new ones (purchased 9/2019). I was gifted a pair from my wife, about 5 years ago, and they seemed to have been made differently now. The laces on my older pair are thick, real leather. The laces on this new pair feel extremely fake, cheap, and fragile. The older pair fit much better than this looser, larger pair. I typically wear a 9.5, and purchased these in 9. They are larger than 9. My old pair is a size 9 too, and they feel great; this new pair, not so much—the back of the slipper slides off my heel every step I take. The new pair has “Minnetonka” labels sewn into the heel area on the inside of the slipper. This is rather uncomfortable and irritating while wearing. It’s as if a piece of dirt or dead bug is inside your slipper; not a great marketing idea, Minnetonka! Sadly, I am not terribly happy with the fitment, quality, and feel of this new pair. I had my old pair for over five years, and could just buy that same-quality pair again now.
