This is the third pair o these slippers that I have purchased. I love them. They are warm and look good. Since the pandemic I spend more time in the house than I used to, and having a good pair of slippers is a must. Each time I have bought them in the light blue-grey. It's a good idea to waterproof them, especially if you do a lot of cooking at home. Regardless, you will need to replace them every 2 years or so, as the shearling on the inside wears down with frequent use.
