Have a look at the Navitas ones. About the same price. Very comfy and slip on easy.

I sometimes wear them for breakfast but for lunch I prefer nice alligator skin moccasins and in the evening a brown oxford or brogue together with my cravat and smoking jacket.
Bivvy slippers ffs?

Got to get with the times H, it's a new world out there!
Personally I wouldn't buy a dedicated pair of bivvy slippers as they will invariably end up on the bank or in the water, I just use my normal sandals
Cheaper varieties are available.

used to have some bivvy socks a few years back - big thick woolen socks that had a rubberised sole on them meaning you could walk around on wet grass etc and then wipe them off before you get into your sleeping bag etc.
my mates ripped the piss out of me when they first saw me wearing them but after a couple of days on the bank and seeing me wearing them, they all went out and bought their own pairs - LOL

I use Crocks 90% of the time Keith got some closed ones for winter and open ones for summer easy to slip on and off the genuine ones dont make ya feet stink
you can walk in the water with them if needed and they float oh and just about the most comfortable things you can put on your feet
but of course if your one of these poor sad insecure people that worry about how something looks rather than how well it works they may not be for you lol

This season I have been mostly wearing these...

I find when combined with these....

one can enjoy a pleasant evening in the bivvy with a glass of port and selection of fine cheeses.
In the event of a run Jeeves can deal with the formalities and call me out in the event that the fish is of a worthy size.

The Navitas weaves were the others I was looking at and after reading all the 5 star reviews on Amazon, went for them in the end. Managed to find a pair in my size in the plain green rather than the camo pattern....... I didn't want to look a total ponce. ;-)
They look so much classier than those plastic croc things you can pick up from the pound shop.
