Over the years, I’ve tested a huge variety of Bombas socks, so I had high expectations before trying the brand’s Gripper Slippers. After all, the Gripper Slippers are quite similar to a pair of socks and not as structured as traditional slippers.
Once I put them on, I immediately understood why the Gripper Slippers are special. I like to think of them as the sweet spot between your favorite heavyweight socks and your favorite house slippers. They’re far less bulky than other slippers, which makes them easy to wear all day — even when you’re laying on the couch or bed. Thanks to a double-layered material, they’re also warmer than most socks.
I went with a size medium, the recommended size for shoe size, and I can comfortably fit them with or without socks. I have carpet throughout most of my apartment, but the grippy bottoms are still a greatly appreciated feature that works wonders on slippery surfaces. — Amir Ismael, style editor, Reviews
