Plantar fasciitis relief 02/16/2019
By ReadySetGo
I don't typically spend a lot of money on shoes. and I began to suffer ramifications for that when I was 51 years old. I am constantly on my feet, and life keeps me very busy. I began struggling with plantar fasciitis about 18 months ago with the pain being pretty constant throughout the day. After trying several types of orthotic inserts and support braces, I researched shoes that would benefit the condition. Haflinger became a name that I saw quite frequently in that research.
I bought two pairs - a wool/double-felt sole for indoor wear and the cork/latex footbed for outdoor. I do not exaggerate when I say that I felt pain relief within the first day of wearing them, and I continue to improve. The arch support (I have very high arches) in both of these shoes/slippers is superb.
Love these 01/02/2019
By Judith Ansara
Haflinger's have been my go to slipper for close to a decade. This is my third pair. They are warm, comfortable and have excellent arch support which is very important to me. I don't wear them around town but love that I can go our to get the mail or newspaper or a quick trip to the grocery store without risk of getting them or my feet soggy. My only objection is that my normal size (39) is too wide and floppy so I have chosen to go a size down which has my toe touching the front when I walk and has caused the toe felt to completely wear through long before I would otherwise have to replace them. Still I have gotten about three years before the hole is too big. I am hoping that the stitching on this new and very attractive design will slow that process down!
Perfect and cozy! 08/14/2014
By Fabric Floozy
I do a lot of craft work in my basement which is cold all winter and spring. These slippers keep my feet warm because of the wool and seem to insulate my feet from the cold floor which otherwise would go right up to my feet. Perfect when you are sitting in your p.j.'s having that first cup of coffee in the morning, too. I'm buying another pair for my winter stay in Arizona because it is cold there in the morning, also.

Sizing has changed 09/26/2020
By Sally Bunce
This was the first time I bought shoes from Dodds Shoe Co. and I must say doing business with them is a real pleasure. I just love the look of these wool clogs which is why I'm giving them 2 stars. BUT something about the way Haflinger makes these wool clogs has changed. Maybe it's because they aren't made in Germany any longer. Now they're made in Slovakia. I've worn Haflinger clogs (wool, leather and even a unique "linen" looking fabric) for over 30 years and have always gotten size 36 which has always fit me perfectly. Until this pair--which is so large and so loose my heels slipped off the side, even with socks on. Thinking it might be this style, I exchanged them for the usual style with the embroidered trim. But they were exactly the same--way too loose across the instep. The ones I bought over the last 30 years were quite snug across the instep which was good because the wool "gives" a bit after some time. It's so disappointing, but I will have to try another brand of wool clogs
The Haflinger philosophy is simple and logical�a healthy foot needs the proper environment and a properly designed walking surface to stay healthy. Haflinger clogs and boiled wool slippers pay particular attention to the needs of your foot�space to expand and contract freely and effectively; breathable, all-natural materials; a footbed and spacious toe box that follow the natural form of the foot; and an impact surface that compliments and fortifies human foot design. Look for the Haflinger classic grizzly clog, the favorite Haflilnger classic hardsole slipper of many loyal customers.

Reviews for "Toasting to Black Girl Magic: Discovering the McBride Sisters' Red Blend"
1. John - 2/5 - I was really disappointed with "McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend". I found the wine to be too sweet for my taste, with overpowering fruity notes that drowned out any depth or complexity. The finish was also quite short and left a somewhat artificial aftertaste. Despite all the hype surrounding this wine, I just couldn't get on board with it. I prefer wines that offer more balance and subtlety, and unfortunately, this one missed the mark for me.
2. Emily - 1/5 - I have to say that I was extremely underwhelmed by the "McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend". The wine lacked any distinct character or uniqueness. It tasted like a generic, run-of-the-mill red blend that you could find anywhere. I was expecting something special given the buzz surrounding this wine, but it fell completely flat for me. The flavors were dull, and there was no complexity to speak of. Overall, it was a forgettable experience, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for an interesting and enjoyable wine.
3. David - 2/5 - I had high hopes for the "McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend" based on all the positive reviews and recommendations, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype for me. The wine had a one-dimensional flavor profile with dominant fruitiness and little else to offer. I found it to be overly sweet and lacking in complexity. It felt like a commercial wine made to appeal to the masses rather than a unique and interesting expression. While it may work for some people, it just wasn't my cup of tea.
4. Sarah - 2/5 - I wasn't impressed with the "McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend". The wine had a very intense fruitiness that felt artificial and overpowering. It lacked the balance and subtlety that I look for in a good red blend. Additionally, the finish was disappointingly short, leaving me wanting more depth and complexity. I had high expectations for this wine based on the branding and marketing, but it just didn't deliver for me. I would suggest trying other red blends that offer a more refined and enjoyable drinking experience.
