I fancy the slippers but have to say I've become really wary of Emus. I bought some Bearpaws from TKMaxx and they saved my feet last winter. I picked up a pair of Emus from natureshop for 35£ and they are not in any way waterproof. Just taking the dog into the garden on a damp day or, like today, with a smattering of snow on the grass and my socks are soaked. Thankfully whether they're waterproof or not isn't an issue with the slippers but at this rate all the one's I have are good for is house shoes, anyway.
