Mens slippers in half sizes
7 Answers
I have been looking all over for mens slippers in half sizes for my disabled Dad. He is size seven and a half, 7 are too small, 8 are too big. He is 91 and disabled with spina bifida and has very swollen feet which he drags due to foot drop. I have to get slippers with easy access with a wide opening front so he can get them on. A velcro fastening is needed. After sending away to places like Hotta and various other catalogues I have had to return all these slippers. I feel if I could get his proper size of seven and a half they would be ok. Does anyone know of anywhere doing half sizes? I have been to nearly all the sites on line and still no luck, thanks in advance.

Sorry, can't help. I have the same requirement and haven't seen half-sizes in the conventional outlets around for years. Obviously you don't want loose-fitting footwear as this can cause falls.
Have you considered something like moccasins which can be quite soft and flexible and might be available in half sizes?

These people will make slippers to measure and one of the designs look like what you have described above
