These black velour slides with bow detail from Torrid are great for the holiday season. That's why I bought them, I did wear them twice outside, but not in snow, rain etc. They're especially nice with heavy tights and a skirt or thicker socks with pants. Because of the material, they will collect lint, but a quick once-over with a lint brush, and they're fresh again. They're in perfect condition, no wear on the soles, just a bit of markings from wearing them outside. Fit true to size. My feet are wide and swell, and these are very comfortable.
