Hanes ComfortSoft Memory Foam Moccasin Boys’ Slippers

Little boys love having warm toasty, feet when they’re snuggled up watching movies with the family, reading in bed or eating Saturday morning pancakes. Enter boys’ slippers, which come in an array of colors, patterns, shapes and designs.

Slippers are fairly forgiving when it comes to sizing, allowing a wide range of shoe sizes to fit within a relatively small number of generic slipper sizes; small, medium and large for example. This means you can keep using the same set of slippers even as your young one grows, but beware of  slippers “to grow into.” Though this tactic works for other sorts of kid clothing, it can be dangerous when it comes to footwear. If the slippers are too large, they can easily fall off or get tangled around the child’s feet, causing them to trip or slip and hurt themselves.

Keep an eye out for the bottom of the slippers. Textured soles or non-slip dots and buttons will help prevent accidents, while smooth-soled slippers, especially leather or fabric soles, can glide a little too easily across carpet, tile and wood.

This is also something to bear in mind when looking at older slippers; the non-slip attributes can wear down or fall off with use. This is usually a good time to find a replacement, unless you know of a way to restore or replace those grippies.

• Consider your child’s interests when buying slippers. While some kids will want their favorite cartoon or comic book characters, others will want to stomp around like monsters,and still others will want to match their parents’ slippers.
• Slippers are designed to be comfortable, warm and easy to get on and off. Some of the more fanciful designs can prioritize unusual shapes over comfort, or become more difficult to take off.
• Childrens’ slippers come in so many different designs and themes these days that finding something that speaks to your little boy is extremely achievable.
