High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A slipper or houseshoe is an semi-closed type of indoor footwear, consisting of a sole held to the wearer's foot by a strap running over the toes or instep. Slippers are soft and lightweight compared to other types of footwear. The word is recorded in English in 1478, deriving from the older verb to slip, the notion being of footwear that is "slipped" onto the foot. Slippers may be shaped like a normal shoe or may have no heel, so the foot can be slipped in the back. They now come in many colourful designs – cartoon characters, patterns and animals are often used to decorate this type of footwear.
