Minnetonka Men's Moosehide Driving Moccasin

These are my first pair of moccasins ever. I always enjoy slipping off my shoes and putting on slippers when I get home, but it was getting tough to find durable and comfortable slippers that could put up with daily wear (even if only for a few hours). I started researching moccasins and happened across these and figured these would be exactly what I needed.When they arrived, I literally put them on immediately. They are made of very soft moosehide leather both inside and out. There isn't a lining (which I was REALLY happy about since I live in Phoenix and I don't need anything warm). The leather breathes well and molds itself around your feet while the semi-rigid foot bed and traction sole makes it easy to walk around the yard or to get the mail or something without worrying about wearing a hole through the sole rapidly.After reading the other reviews, I was worried about picking the correct size. I have large, wide feet and my 'size' varies wildly between manufacturers. I have a pair of 11.5's hiking shoes that are perfect while my sneakers and work shoes are 12's or 12.5's. I ended up going with 13's and they are perfect. My big toe is about 1/4 inch from the front of the moccasin and the back grips my feet well.The width is a bit narrow. but the leather is so soft it stretches easily to accommodate my wide feet. I haven't worn these for long, but I am sure they will continue to mold themselves around my feet and simply grow more comfortable as time goes on.Now, these are listed as 'driving shoes' which is another item that I've always wanted to have. I have a high performance car that I take to the track on occasion as well as a job that occasionally has me driving for several hours a day. I figured a flexible set of shoes would only make things more comfortable. These shoes do an excellent job of offering rigidity during general use and flexibility while driving. It gives me greater control on the pedals and effortless heel and toe driving.Having one pair of shoes that work both for driving AND as slippers is perfect. Sure, the price is a little bit steep, but I expect years of use out of these. Considering I was going through 2 pairs of $20 slippers a year, if these last my 5 years, I've made out on the deal.

Replaced his old ones after 20 years. Hope these last as long. Great fit. Well made. Very comfortable.

I've wasted so much money on supposed "Driving" shoes which turned out to be stiff and uncomfortable.These shoes are very soft and flexible; very comfortable for everyday use and perfect for driving as you can actually feel the pedals through the soles. I just can't say enough good things about these shoes; I'm so pleased with them.

Runs a bit small, had to go up 1 size. Also runs a bit narrow. Soft leather, so they had give to them.

I've had three pair of these and still have all three. They are very durable and extremely comfortable. So I thought I would try the driving moc. This pair arrived with what felt like a defective left shoe. I have already replaced this pair and the second pair seems fine. But I must say they seem to be making them more narrow than they used to. However they are very stretchable and I expect the second pair to be fine.

These are easily the nicest slippers I have ever owned. I ordered a half of a size larger than my shoe size. I wish I would have ordered 1.5 sizes bigger. They were uncomfortably tight for the first week I wore them. Once they broke in they were really comfortable. I hope to own these for a few years. I would recommend these slippers, just order a size or two bigger than your shoe size.

I usually wear a size 11. While the moc looks great made with soft moose it fit very tight so I exchanged it for a size 12. While I look forward to wearing the new moc I have to wait til August 30...three weeks from now! Amazon's delivery service is mostly great but to have to wait three weeks for delivery seems far below Amazon vendor standards.

I've had about 10 pairs of Minnetonkas thru the years, and love em.I wanted to try the cowhide in this particular style driving moc for durability, but could never get a size that fit. Always either too large or too small. When I saw nearly the same style in mooseskin for $69 instead of the usual $80-83, I jumped on it.I already have mooseskin in black and brown with a different style sole, and also had a mooseskin with pebble sole that finally were evaporating after 20 years of wear. The mooseskin definitely stretches with wear. But then becomes the most comfortable things you'll ever have on your feet.It's strange they don't have half sizes in this style. I normally wear a 9.5, and that probably would've been an exact fit out of the box. But as said, I know they'll stretch, so I got a 9, that's snug right now, but I'll just break them in with a bare foot or very thin sock for a while.Already, though, they feel great. Mooseskin is more expensive, but if you can find a similar deal and the right fit, it's worth it over the long run.
