Black Friday is a great time to treat yourself to new slippers or clogs, as long as you don't buy just anything. A slashed price tells you nothing about the sole, the lining or how the pair will last. Here's how to spot a genuinely good deal on slippers and clogs, and avoid the purchases you regret in January.
Key points
- A low price isn't enough: check the sole, the material, the lining and the fit.
- Prepare your list and your sizes before the offers start.
- Bundles bring down the price per pair, ideal for getting ahead on Christmas gifts.
- Read the small print: delivery, size exchanges, time to change your mind.
- At Breya, offers run throughout Black Friday week, from 24 to 30 November.
When is Black Friday 2026?
Black Friday 2026 falls on Friday 27 November, the day after Thanksgiving. But most brands now spread their offers over several days, through to Cyber Monday on 30 November. At Breya, offers are planned for the whole of Black Friday week, from 24 to 30 November. Plenty of time to choose calmly, rather than rushing at midnight on Friday.
What makes a good deal on slippers?
A good deal isn't the lowest price: it's the best balance between what you pay and how often you'll wear the pair. Slippers that go flat after a month end up costing more than a well-made pair you slip on every evening from autumn to spring. So before you compare prices, compare the pairs.
Quality checks before you buy
The sole
This is what makes a pair comfortable day after day. A padded footbed that follows the arch of your foot, like the one in the Sienna vegan suede clogs, goes unnoticed even after a long day. If you plan to pop outside in them, look for a grooved sole designed for outdoor use. All our pointers are in our article on what makes a comfortable sole.
The material
Be wary of product pages that don't say what a shoe is made of. Our styles are made of vegan suede, a microfibre with a soft "peach skin" feel and no animal-derived materials. It's soft and warm, and keeps looking good with a quick brush.
The lining
For winter, check how far the lining goes. On the Bormio faux-fur-lined clogs, the faux-fur lining runs right up to the collar: your foot is wrapped in warmth, not just resting on a warm sole. The Merano slipper has a wide faux-fur cuff and a plush lining.
The fit
A clog that slips around tires your feet and ends up at the back of the wardrobe. An adjustable metal buckle lets you fine-tune the fit, with or without socks. On an outdoor slipper, a pull tab at the back makes it easier to slip on.
Classic Black Friday traps
- The inflated "was" price: note the usual price of the pairs you like now. With us, Sienna and Bormio are €39.99, the Merano slipper is €34.99 and the Cortina bootie is €44.99. That way, you'll know exactly what you're saving.
- The wrong size: with a countdown ticking, it's easy to order your usual size without checking. Our styles are true to size: if you're between two sizes, go for the larger one. Our guide to choosing the right size in slippers and clogs will help you decide.
- Hidden extras: paid delivery, charged exchanges, too little time to change your mind. Check the terms before you check out.
- Impulse buys: a pair you don't need is never a bargain, however cheap.
- Vague product pages: no material, no size guide, no photo of the sole? Move on.
Are bundles really better value?
Yes, as soon as you need more than one pair. With Build your own bundle, you choose 2 pairs for €59.99, under €30 a pair, or 3 pairs for €79.99, under €27 a pair. You can mix styles: a Sienna for all year round, a Bormio for winter, a Merano for cosy evenings. The second pair at 75% off is another way to bring the total down.
A bundle is also a chance to get ahead on Christmas: one pair for you, one or two to give. Slippers are one of those gifts people actually wear, every single day.
Get ready for Black Friday in 5 steps
- Make a list of who you're buying for: yourself, your partner, Christmas gifts.
- Write down the sizes, sizing up if in doubt.
