Saw these today in my local Aldi and have been wearing them all day! Great slippers and proper Harris Tweed too. I think these are a steal at £7.99! In store only right now.

This moccasin looks very similar to the blue ones in Sainsbury selling at £25 !

Think they've upped their game! Been wearing mine around the house non-stop since purchase and all is well so far.

what are the soles like, any padding? I'm more on the heavy set side you see

I had a pair of non-Tweed Aldi moccasins last winter and they were, frankly, rubbish. The sole compressed to paper-thin in a matter of days. Very disappointed, should really have taken them back for refund.

I have it on good authority that Sandi Toksvig is a massive fan of the tweed moccasin slipper. A hot deal for a lovely pair of Toksvigs.

Can't have the best of all worlds, I doubt if they'd be able to charge £7.99 with full UK manufacturing unfortunately!

Surely it's all sorted with the Northern Powerhouse and the great manufacturing nation we have become....:confused:.

Omg, the sheer joy of brand new slippers. I -really-said-that, ha. Heat added op :smiley:

Apologies - I didn't even realise Harris Tweed was a thing! Thought it was just the name for this particular make of slipper. I'm sure the Harris Tweed aspect of the slippers aren't made in China - it's not unusual for China to import it and then for other companies to use it in their manufacturing. Same goes with other products made in other countries.

I'm sure it does - didn't say otherwise. Shame it has to be shipped to China to be made up though.

They bear the Harris Tweed Orb mark, so pretty sure the tweed element comes from the Outer Hebrides!

Of course - but they aren't all made from 'Harris Tweed'.

Went to get a pair of these ended up getting the blue ones, size 9 seem a little tight. Good deal though, heated.

Don't forget your knitted cardigan with stitched in elbow pads in case you slip.
