Now I want your slippers! They look so comfy and beautiful to boot

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 2 points 4 months ago

They're well worn! Nearly due for a new pair.

UGG Australian Sheppard have a bunch of colours. Seem to last 12 months of HEAVY wear. Any more is pushing it though.

Thanks for the rec! I an actually looking for a new pair of slippers so I might check these out

Mine are from the Dandenong market. I get around 12 months of reasonably heavy wear. Then they become my 'run outside and grab wood/mail/nothing too strenuous pair'.

I can definitley attest to that - my current slippers were originally pink but are now more of a pinkish brown colour.

I had one of those big fluffy tv dressing gown jumper things which was pink. I loved it! Eventually it got a bit brown though, and never recovered even with a few cycles through the washing machine and some stain remover
