The pictures make these look a little more faded, than they really are. I have worn them a lot in the last week and a half. The sizing felt slightly small, but they wear in just fine. I can wear between a 7.5 and 8.5 in tennis shoes, these felt like a 7.5 at first, but now are more like an 8. The quality is well worth the money. I have purchased numerous cheap slippers and they never last. These keep your feet warm and look like they will be around in my closest for a few years. I wear slippers at home most of the time and I also work from home, so they get plenty of use. I bought a second pair in the Chestnut color and I plan to buy another pair, or two. The black color looks very black, but does seem like it will fade over time. I’m sure some clothing dye could fix that. I would definitely recommend these, if you are interested in UGG quality, without the price tag.
