A Look at Memory Foam Slippers

Memory foam footwear is a quickly burgeoning industry. Manufacturers of sneakers, boots, slippers, insoles, and more are using memory foam in their products these days. The footwear guru company Dr. Scholl’s has a line of memory foam footwear products. 

The reason for its popularity rests in its ability to both cushion and support whatever pressure is placed on it. This ability is due to two factors: its deformable cells with movable air pockets, and its sensitivity to temperature. Memory foam slippers are one of the latest trends in memory foam, and the trend looks to be long lasting.

Memory foam slippers provide the greatest fit for any foot. Whether your feet are fleshy or bony, flat-bottomed or highly arched, memory foam slippers are right for you. They can “remember” the shape of your feet.

The slippers utilize the same technology as that used for mattresses, mattress pads, pillows, and even dog beds. If memory foam can support you horizontally, surely it can support you vertically. When you step into your first pair of memory foam slippers, they will feel firm or hard. After a few moments, however, your feet will “sink in” just enough to get a glove-like fit.

Remember: your entire body weight is resting on the soles of your feet. You’ll want to make sure your memory foam slippers are of a high density, preferably 5 pounds per cubic foot. This will ensure that the memory foam layer doesn’t “bottom out” or hit solid ground, or else the benefit of the foam will be lost. Therefore, be sure that the bottoms of the slippers are thick enough to allow plenty of “give” at your highest pressure points, such as heels, the balls of your feet, and the pads of your toes. Before buying, ask the manufacturer what kind of memory foam they use in their memory foam slippers.
