Billow: A Pillow…for your feet

February 7, 2009 By Stephanie

fitflop billow chocolateLately, I’ve been wearing slippers every day. 

Well, technically, they’re boots. But they feel like slippers – the comfiest, fluffiest, finest slippers ever! 

The website touts that the Billow is “the closest you can come to walking on a cloud.” While I can’t say I’ve ever walked on a cloud (and, if I had, I can assure you it would have been cold and not at all fluffy…), I can say that the Billows really are exceptionally comfortable.

And, if you’re in some part of the country that is experiencing frigid weather (Check out Arianne’s snow-covered house in Chicagoland…), you are sure to appreciate the warm luxuriousness of the shearling lining and cuff.

Yep, you heard that right: “Engineered to engage muscles, lessen joint impact and absorb shock, FitFlops burn calories and tone legs with every step.” Although I certainly don’t believe that these shoes will get me in tip-top shape on their own, I do like the idea of burning a few extra calories just by slipping on these snug shoes.

You can wear the boots inside or outside, but I just prefer to wear mine lounging around the house (I can’t decide if they’re stylish enough for going out…what do you think?). 

The Billow retails for approximately $125 and is sold at Amazon.com, Victoria’s Secret, and a variety of other retailers.

    I want some! You sure they don’t want to give a pair away to a “random” (read: me) reader to try out? ;) I have two pairs of slippers, and they are eons old; now that I think about it, one is 7 years old. Might be time to buy some new ones… To answer your question, if I had the beige or dark brown ones I would probably wear them out every so often with jeans, but not the pink ones.

    Slippers. I just started to wear them more this year than ever before. I have these fun bear claw slippers – and we all laugh every time I wear them, but they are so warm and soft.

    These sounds divine! I wear slippers all the time but I can’t say I would spend more than $10 on a pair because I’m always buying new ones LOL

    I would probably wear them out of the house.

    Oh and the snow is finally melting away today here in Chicagoland thank goodness.
