The sleep brand has now turned its attention to your feet, applying the same know-how that made its beds so popular.
We’ve tested a range of Simba products over the years, from the Original Hybrid to the APEX, so the bar was high.
The slippers stick to the formula that works: quality materials, smart design and comfort that feels considered rather than flashy.
So, do they live up to the hype and the price tag? Here’s our honest take in the full Simba slippers review.

Simba Slippers review: how I tested
At some point in the last five years, I have become the kind of person who brings their own slippers to a friend’s house.
After all, there’s nothing more comforting than taking your outside shoes off and slipping into some warm, relaxing slippers at the end of a long day, whether at home or not.
After reviewing the Simba APEX Mattress (and loving it). I had incredibly high hopes for these slippers.
It would be a hard job to tear my feet away from my trusty Uggs, and I wasn’t disappointed. These slippers didn’t just walk into my life — they strolled in and stole my heart.

Simba Slippers review: Quickfire Q&A
How much are Simba Slippers?: Simba’s Stormur slippers retail at £95 direct from the brand, with occasional promos bringing them down during key sales. They’re a premium, outdoor-capable design, so pricing sits above standard house slippers.
Who are they best for?: Best for cold-footed comfort seekers, home workers, and busy parents who want supportive, indoor to doorstep slippers that actually last. They could also make an excellent premium gift for hard-to-buy-for adults who appreciate smart design and cosy materials.
What we loved: The genuinely supportive footbed with reflexology-inspired gel pressure points that soothe tired soles. The merino wool and lightweight leather keep feet cosy yet breathable, while the indoor/outdoor-friendly build is light, durable and stylish enough for doorstep dashes.
What we didn’t: Price is punchy, and the colour palette is conservative. Sizing runs slightly narrow, and there’s a short break-in. They run warm in heated homes, and they’re not machine washable, so sticky spills need spot cleaning. An outdoor-friendly sole can track dirt.

Design and materials
The Simba ROK Slippers are a little more formal than I’d usually wear, but the buckle gives them an elevated presence; I’ve found myself wearing my smart pyjamas and dressing gown, sauntering around the house like an old, rich divorcee.
The open moccasin style makes them easy to slip on and off; the suede upper means no pressure on the top of your feet, and they offer a thick, sock-like level of comfort.
Men’s Rok Slipper£79 from Simba
BUY HEREI’m a confessed material snob who loves merino and cashmere, so when it’s incorporated into products like mattresses and slippers, I don’t need to be sold on it — just take my money.
Compared to my Ugg Slippers, they feel more supportive and beneficial for my feet. The shearling lining in my Uggs is super comfortable, but I just know it’s not doing any supportive work (unless you count a warm hug as support).
The Simbas don’t feel super warm, and I’m still not sure how to feel about that. I suppose it will take some getting used to, but at the moment, I’m not mad about it. Ask me again when it gets into the minus numbers outside, and I might change my mind.
Upper:Merino wool and calf leatherInsoleCalf leather and gel solution for pressure pointsMidsolePolyether cork-effect materialOutsolePolyether and rubberThe ROK Slippers are made from Merino wool, known for its comfort and warmth in winter and breathability in summer.
These are marketed as being indoor-outdoor, but I fear they may just be a little too luxe to brave the elements.
The suede marks incredibly easily, kind of like Birkenstock Bostons. After one messy handwash, I noticed water marks and immediately reached for the Crep Protect.
That appears to have protected them from indoor damage, but I’m still concerned about going outdoors.
The rubber sole is sturdy and much more akin to what you would see on a sandal than a slipper. I have no doubt they could brave the outdoors, but if you’re neurotic like me and have indoor- and outdoor-specific clothing, you might not want to use the transitional feature of these slippers.
Better yet, get an outside pair and an inside pair.
Comfort and ergonomics
As a fan of wellness and all things self-care, I was excited to test out the nine pressure points, which claim to “massage feet to assist blood circulation & pain relief in corresponding parts of the body”.
As someone who suffers from plantar fasciitis all year round as well as chilblains in the winter, if there is one thing I need, it’s pain relief and blood circulation.
The pressure points are subtle and much more forgiving than my plantar fasciitis insoles. The most notable are the lung, heart, and metatarsal trigger points, which feel like a thumb gently massaging the balls of your feet.
Usually, I crumble and cry under pressure, but this pressure I can get on board with.
Simba Slippers
SHOP HEREPerformance and durability
As I mentioned earlier, the first thing you will want to do is reach for a protection spray to help extend the lifespan of your ROK Slippers. I use Crepe Protect, which takes just two sprays, 10 minutes apart, and you’re all set.
You might also want a suede brush and cleaner, just in case. I have a three-year-old Labrador who drops a slobbery ball on your foot every day just to remind you he still exists.
I never really know where the day will take me, so I already have most of this in my arsenal. Simba recommends that if you find the slippers are picking up spills, gently rub them with a mild soap-and-water solution.
Sizing and fit
The sizing range for men goes from 7-12, and it’s recommended to size up if you’re in doubt.
I’m usually a solid 7.5, and I sized up to an 8; they fit perfectly. If I had gone for a 7, then they would have been too small.
I have pretty narrow feet, so I’ve never really struggled with shoes being too tight width-wise; however, these seem to have some room to breathe in either size, so they would fit well if you have more standard or wider-than-average feet.
Price and value
The pricing for these slippers is £79, which, while certainly not cheap, isn’t terrible in the high-end slipper market.
Some others to look at would be:
Ugg Mahabis Kurt Geiger BirkenstockGiven their wellness and health features, I would say they are worth the price.
There are plenty more on the market that might give you more style or more warmth, but would do nothing for conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat arches or more general “been on my feet all day” soreness.
Does Simba sell any other slippers?
Yes, Simba has three different styles of slippers: The Rok (these), The Stormur and the Ylur slipper. All three come in men’s and women’s sizes.
Simba Slippers: Verdict
Would I recommend these slippers? Absolutely.
They are on-trend with the likes of Birkenstock Clogs or the Ugg Tasman Slippers, but offer the added benefits of Reflexology.
If you’re going to use them both indoors and outdoors, I strongly suggest you protect the materials before stepping outside and definitely avoid wearing them on rainy or miserable days.
They are temperature-regulating and elevate any lounging-around setup.
Move over, Cinderella, these slippers are the perfect fit.
Clara's verdict on Simba's Stormur Slippers
Pros: Very practical, stylish, excellent quality, can be worn indoors and outCons: Feels more like a shoe than a slipper, not cheapRating: 8/10
Simba has designed a truly practical yet stylish clog that can be worn both indoors and outdoors.
If you’re after a super comfy, fluffy slipper, these probably aren’t for you, as they definitely feel more like a shoe than a traditional slipper.
However, that’s because they’ve been designed to feel like you’re walking barefoot outdoors, and they have nine pressure points to massage your feet.
I can’t say I particularly feel like I’m walking outdoors, and I’ve yet to notice any pressure points, but I can say that I find them really comfortable to wear, and the quality is excellent.
They remind me a lot, style-wise, of the Birkenstock Bostons, and I feel like I could get away with wearing them as a fashion choice out of the house.

Kieran's verdict on Simba's YLUR Slippers
Pros: Durable and well-made, comfortable, stylish, adjustable, and can also be worn outdoors
Cons: Expensive
Rating: 9/10
You might recognise the silhouette of the Ylur; I think Simba would admit it is quite heavily inspired by the Birkenstock Arizona.
As an owner of a pair of Arizonas, I think they feel similar, with ergonomic footbeds that keep you both comfortable and supported.
I’ve previously not been much of a slipper lover; they make my feet too hot, and a very vain part of me thinks they look a bit silly.
However, Simba has solved both of those issues. The Ylur’s design keeps my trotters nice and cool, and its slim, stylish look means I’d be more than happy to wear them out and about.
For me, these are a big win. I’m not sure I buy Simba’s reflexology claims, but they’re certainly comfortable and stylish, and they’re the first slippers I’ve owned that I’ve taken to.
