I have the same problem but have found Hush Puppies Pixie slippers to be very good

For outside it’s Sketchers all the way! They do not just the most comfy and supportive ever but summer sandals and winter boots!

Inside the house, for winter wear sort of boot lined wide slippers and summer bare footed or crocs

I gave a pair of Paver slippers. They are wide and cosy. Boot style so they have a velcro fastening round my ankles. Firm sole so ok if I need to pop outside for a few minutes. Very good fit , my feet feel comfortable and supported in them .

Crocs with removable fleecy lining?

Has anyone any recommendations for a pair of slippers with plenty of toe room but which don't slip off at the heel please?
(Ditto trainers or walking boots)
I have to wear orthotics for plantar fasciitis so need something I can close tightly, if that makes sense.
My current pair which I got in market about 10 years ago just about do the job but are a bit too "pointy" in the toe and the velcro's not really in the right place to do them up tightly enough to not slip off when I am walking around the house, which is especially worrying on the stairs.
I'm fine in the warmer weather wearing "anatomically correct" flip flops but I need something I can wear my thick socks in and put on/take off in a hurry.
Thanks ...
