I'm looking for a new pair of house slippers and wondering if anyone has identified a bond approved pair? Off the top of my head I can't remember seeing any, but something from a book could be cool. Perhaps we'll see some in Spectre.

Here's my review, which focuses primarily on fit and break-in:
High quality, extremely comfortable. For best fit, purchase the smallest size that you can get your foot into. If there is any gap at the heel when you try them on, size down and try again. I wear 11 1/2 C in other Peal shoes and wear 10 1/2 in these slippers.
At first you'll need to use your hand to get the heel into the slipper. After about 2 weeks you should be able to slip your foot in unaided, but may still have some tightness across the instep. After six weeks the slipper should be perfectly molded to your foot and they'll feel like you've had them for years.
