The temperatures outside keep plummeting, and we’ve finally come to terms with the fact that we’re in full “stay indoors ’til spring” season — but hey, hibernation isn’t all bad. After all, it gives us an excuse to embrace the coziness, by lounging around in our comfy clothes and swapping out fall fashion for a more winter-ready wardrobe. That means a lot of stretchy pants, sweatshirts and our personal favorite, slippers. With that in mind, we scoured the internet for a great pair of affordable slip-ons for puttering around the house or snuggling up on the couch … and we found them in the Sosushoe Memory Foam Slippers, an Ugg look-and-feel-alike available for the decidedly un-Ugg-like price of just $17 a pair at Amazon.

Why is this a good deal?

Yes, Ugg slippers are super-trendy, but at $90 to $160 for the most popular models (and still a fair chunk of change at $50 to $75 for the Koolaburra by Ugg versions) these are clearly a more wallet-friendly option for fans of the brand. Of course, the higher price does have high-quality craftsmanship attached to it — but these cozy slippers from Sosushoe offer a very similar look to Ugg’s bestselling clog-style slippers at a literal fraction of the cost. Right now, they’re on sale at Amazon for a mere $17 — down from $50 — making them nearly 70% off. At prices this good, you can order a pair for you and a pair for someone on your Nice List this holiday season.

Why do I need this?

Whether you’re kicking back at home or venturing out to check off some items from your to-do list, these plush pretties are perfect for keeping your feet snuggly-warm without sacrificing comfort or style. They’re made with a cushy memory foam insole, which is covered with faux-fur lining for supreme softness. But they’re tough, too — the rubber soles offer traction and make it possible to comfortably and confidently wear them outside, though they’re still light enough to not weigh you down. The Khaki color has the best price at $17, but for just a dollar more you can grab any other of the lovely shades available: Dark Blue, Brown, Light Gray, Dark Gray, Beige or Pink.

What reviewers say

The shoppers have spoken, and nearly 6,000 have given the Sosushoe Memory Foam Slippers a perfect five-star rating on Amazon. “I live in these,” confessed one reviewer. “Snagged these on Cyber Monday and wear them daily. They’re super soft and warm. The soles are comfortable for walking my dog around the block on cold mornings.” Yep, they’re durable enough (and stylish enough) to wear outside, too!

One fan highlighted the slippers’ “incredible softness”: “These are wonderful. So comfortable. Super soft fur lining. I live in these! Just got my second pair! I’ll order more soon!!! They are warm and very durable… I have hard cold tile floors and my feet are always cold. These are perfect for me. They’re very attractive, too.”

Of course, many wearers have clocked their similarities to Uggs, just as we did. “I am so happy I found these. I really wanted the Ugg slippers and these look identical and are so much cheaper … saved me so much money, plus, great quality and super comfy,” raved one writer.

Another shared, “I wanted a slipper that looked good but was also super comfy to wear inside the house with all my pandemic sweat outfits. I considered Uggs but the idea of spending that much on an item you wear exclusively in the house didn’t work for me. These slippers are a cuter look than the Uggs in my opinion.” They added: “The only thing that throws off the look a tad is that the sole … is white in color, whereas the Uggs are a deep golden color — aside from that they’re super warm, soft and wonderful.”
