Chinese Slippers, Trend -__- Options

[Eryi]

Everyday I see a lot of females in my school walking around with Chinese slippers. They would always brag about what colors they have and etc. Is that the new style or something? Nowadays I think the most cheapest things like chinese slippers are being mroe and more popular. I was wondering if females in your school wears them too.

[sunissed14127]

What are chinese slippers? Are they like those ballet slippers?

[*mzkandi*]

I see alot of girls wearing them here. Yeah they are the new trend I suppose. I dont wear them because everyone and their mother has a pair.

[*stephinika*]

apparently. there's a ton of girls with them at my school now too. they're okay, i don't really like them that much...

[*mona lisa*]

I wear them. It's better than wearing socks with sneakers. I don't exactly hate them, I just don't like the noise they make when you walk.

[ItzOnlySydney]

haha there are very few girls who wear them around here. i like them i really want a pair =)

[*salcha*]

are you talking about these?:

not a lot of people at my school have these, but you'll see a few.

[KissMe2408]

Oh man, i have no idea why they became so popular. They are the ugliest shoes i've ever seen...oh man, lol.

[miss barnes]

i have black ones but, i dont wear them a lot. they are kinda popular at my school. some ppl think they're cute and some dont

[swturtleangel]

i laugh whenever i see them in stores for like $5 each. u can get them in chinatown for $1. they're not the most comfortable shoes in the world either.

Ugh those are so ugly its retarded.

If you're talking about the ballet shoes then I own a pair. I bought them at first because they were relatively cheap and I need some dress shoes that kinda went with everything. Then I started wearing them all the time because they're easier to put on that High Tops and socks, but in dress code unlike my wonderful but overworn sandals.

[Just_Dream]

I loathe those chinese slippers. Can you believe that almost all the pairs look almost identical?! I mean the way the floral designs look, it's all very similar. Bleh... And some places they're cheap, others expensive. I don't know why people wear them--A few still do at my school. Personally, they don't even LOOK like Chinese slippers. WTH... I've seen other chinese slippers and they look nothing like this. My mom even has a pair.

[loljuliana]

everyone at my school has been wearing them ever since last year. they also wear these things called "ninja shoes" or ballet slippers. now there's ninja shoes and chinese slippers put together. it's in the form of ninja shoes but has holes like chinese slippers and flowers in the front. in my opinion; they're all ugly

[FLIPxADDICTION]

it's a pretty old trend.
and an ugly one in fact.
come on my mom wears them around the house

[eli5e]

haha ..i'm just gonna stick w/ the regular stylish flats.. :]

my parents sell these at their store...bought em for really like 50cents apiece probably...sells them for like 4 bucks

and i saw them selling at WALGREENS too ..

lol but yea ...CAN be cute iguess.

[shortiiex]

they were REALLLY popular last year....i remmeber i went to a store and they sold it for $16....i thought that was stupid when you can just buy it for like $1

[[Mediocre]Artist]

The gross ones (that I quoted about) are also available at Walmart or Kroger (I forget) in the Dollar store section. Either way that screams "this is not cool!" to me.

[KELLYYY]

TONS of girls wear them.. I only have the black and blue one.. sigh. It's getting old here now..

[d0nchikit0]

Tons of girls wear them.. They've been wearing them for what? 2 years already? lol I'm actually getting tired of seeing girls take off their shoes because the slippers hurt them.. And they only cost like 1$ around my old house..

[*XLilAznGrl592X*]

I don't see girls wear them in my school because we can't wear those but i dont see much people wearing them... maybe my town is weird

[gOODpIRATE]

yeah, lots of people at my school wear them on a daily basis. do i? no.

[Paradox of Life]

Ugh. I find them hideous and there are quite a few girls that wear them at school. Unfortunately, their feet aren't very attractive. I'd never wear those things. I don't know why. They seem like a cool design, but they just don't look that appealing.

[cRaZiiXbEauTiFul]

omg. i hate those! im chinese, and we wear them around the house..before people began wearing them out in public. i hate it when people do that! i saw them at like, urban outfitters once for 25$$, and i was like you can get them for 1$ in new york, chinatown!

[toodlepops.]

I hate them, they look really..I dunno, really unstylish.

[topsyturvy]

Oh man.. those were initially meant to be used as household slippers..

As shoes, they are just plain BAD.

[*salcha*]

Oh man.. those were initially meant to be used as household slippers..

As shoes, they are just plain BAD.

Yeah, my mom wears them around the house all the time. So when I told her that girls wore them to school, her expression was all:

[sw33t_rouge]

ew....might as well melt the chinese samndals and make REAL sandals...i had a pair of those in elemantry golly..its like walking on cement.

[yellowcardrox22]

ew i think those are really ugly... maybe its just cause im chinese but i think they are hideous..

[teeners4]

ballet slippers, chinese slippers dont wear them for casual wear!

unless you're a ballerina and some chinese mom

[mocassinsx29]

If some people were wearing them okay. If they wore it in the house alright. I know it's America and you can wear whatever you want but you can also say whatever you want and I must say it: From seeing hundreds of ghetto people that I HATE from my school wearing it, every day, in a new color, I think they are the most horrendous, hideous, heinous, ugliest, gaudiest, cheapest, pieces of crap shoes I have even seen.

[vehvih]

They look repugnant to me.

[ANG33ZY]

yeah a lot of girls here wear them too

they look very uncomfortable though. i'm not a slipper person.

[*x____duckii*]

I used to like those.

Now they're just bleh. Besides, they match with barely anything. It's not really that much of a trend here anymore, but I still spot some people wearing them

[LOVEDETOUR]

Chinese slipppers are sooo last year.

[h31d1]

ew. something my grandma would wear.

[jennyjenny]

Yeah, they're meant to be like household slippers. My parents used to have those. They don't anymore, thank goodness. They're ugly and I would seriously laugh if people wore those.

[jue]

chinese slippers and ninja slippers (ballet) are the cheapest around and the most popularist. Most girls in my school walk around in them

[WhiteLotus*]

I only have two pairs, and they're black and white. I really don't think they're that ugly; I just wanted something to wear to the beach 'cause I didn't like the sandals I saw in the store.
They're not that big of a trend here. I've only seen about 5 girls here in my school wear them.

[sammi rules you]

i think they're nice. they're not uncomfortable.

[ladystarr]

yeah i don't like the chinese slipper style...its so last summer....but i do love these shoes I have them in that color and black. I always thought they were cute, but never got them cuz they were trendy....but then my good friend/coworker had them at work and I just had to get them too. We have to wear closed toe shoes and these are great cuz they're comfy and cute... they look good with capris and also nice jeans + a cool blazer. They're not cheap lookin like the chinese slippers. what do you guys think?

[lilnatcat]

I know what kind of shoes your talking about, and also the patterns of them since I'm Chinese and gawd..............hate those shoes.

So tacky with any outfits...........

[xsweetxcandyx]

they were "in" at my school..well my area last year

now its indian slippers and other boho things

[SarahxJoy]

Bleh, yeah a lot of girls at my school wear them.
When I first saw a girl wear 'em, I was thinking.. "All you need now is some pj bottoms and a bathrobe and you're all set."

[supahstah_luv]

ugh, not my thing.
plus they're not even comfy or good for walking..

[MeLoNiSyUmMy]

oh..yes...ihate those. im chinese personally so you'd think id get them..but no. haha

[enyceXaddiction]

i know what you mean. its REALLY popular. and its comfy.

[enyceXaddiction]

i know what you mean. its REALLY popular. and its comfy.

[b0st0ngrl]

I tried my friend's pair on once and they were so uncomfortable..why would you want shoes that are uncomfortable so that you can be "trendy"

[xhidethedetails]

I only know of 2 people at my school who wear them so no not a big trend around here.

[`SWTWiNKLE3YES]

yea girls in my school wear them .. but to me, it doesnt seem that nice

[sheepy]

yeah, people wear them. i think they're ugly..

[SillyCourtney]

Oh man I hate those shoes. They are just about the ugliest shoes I have ever seen. I don't understand how girls can wear them.

[iheartjohn]

I wear them. I have like, 10 pairs. They're comfy and you can wear them with almost anything.

[*lolita kitty*]

heh, i like those things. i have them in 3 shades of pink and i wear them with some of my skirts and capris.

[br0kenINSIDE_91]

ya, laugh at me, but these shoes are HAWT! sure, they dont look THAT good but they're super comfortable.

[Xprezsion]

Yea those are trendy now, they cost like 5 cents to make, and some of them are like $10, when they are so cheaply made. I don't find them comfortable to walk in, I feel like I'm going to trip all the time.

[3ssx]

hmm whoa i just realized my friend has them too.
lmfao. well i wouldnt wear them
they're okay i suppose.

[katssso]

I see alot of girls wearing them here. Yeah they are the new trend I suppose. I dont wear them because everyone and their mother has a pair.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS i agree

[Bobblehead425]

lmfao...if those things wonders79 posted up are becoming a fad i dont know whats coming next....they are so ugly!!! lol....sorry to any people i may have offended this is just my opinion lol

[lakerfever2476]

Eww those are frigging hideous. They should be in the Fashion Wall of Shame or something. >.>

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

out here in the bay area [ or maybe just everyone i hear ] calls them ripper slippers. cos apparently on rips bought them at first. yeah they were REALLY popular. now they kinda fizzled out and its back to the usual nikes converse and especially the jordans.

[Teesa]

I like them. They seem really comfortable and cute. I just might snag me a pair

[osidepinay33]

haha i have a pair of blk ones and red ones! lol

[Looow]

They are really ugly.

[xSiLLyMex]

My mom has them in like 20 different colors. I rather where sandals then those. =\

[[Mediocre]Artist]

ew. something my grandma would wear.

Yeah most of the girls at my schools and their mothers and grandmas have these shoes. If you are wearing the same shoes as someone over 40 that is not a good sign!

[*danielle_x3*]

Everyday I see a lot of females in my school walking around with Chinese slippers.  They would always brag about what colors they have and etc. Is that the new style or something? Nowadays I think the most cheapest things like chinese slippers are being mroe and more popular.  I was wondering if females in your school wears them too. 

why would they brag about it? it's just $1.50 lol yeah, a lot of people here in NY have them. if you go to China Town, the majority of girls are wearing them

[BiGdRaGoN31]

ya they were first only for wearin in houses by asian people, now ppl think its trendy haha, my mom has 3486346 pairs

[mai_z]

They're ugly AND uncomfortable..i just don't get it

[eli5e]

..hmm arent you supose to wear them around the house as ordinary slippers ?? (for chinese heritage people)

[katssso]

it wasn't really a trend, people just wore em

[SMiLEEFORMEE]

more like everyone in my town & anywhere i've been around my town wear them. it's crazy that it's just annoying the number of people who wear them.

[kayli10]

I think they're beautiful! Maybe it's just me, but no one here in texas have worn them!
I'm going to New York this summer and when i go to Chinatown I'm going to buy some. And a pair of Japanese Tatami Zori. Those look great, too.

But I'm not too fond of those pics you all have posted here. Hmm. I rather like these:
http://ghw.wordherders.net/archives/china.town.slippers.jpg
better. :D!

Just looking at that picture makes me want to get one of every color! Especially black. And orange. And green, blue, red, pink, cream... ;D!


eleeza! I love your sig. *Drool* You think those SVU pics are great... ever see the man in OZ? Two words for ya: full frontal.
XD

[SkaironFrenzy]

heck ya!! lol..Even my grandma has them. If i was a girl, i wouldnt like them.

[daddysgirl165]

Chinese Slippers are soooo old. You are kinda late guys.

[kayli10]

Depends, Daddysgirl, where you're at.

These shoes haven't even seen the likes of Texas! Maybe a pair or two of those mesh ones, but not the real stuff.

[emaleth]

wasn't this trend like LAST YEAR?
i have ones that aren't mesh and not from some chinese dollar shop...
they're aldos with gold sequins and i bought them last spring

i have no idea where they are right now..

[one_lub_4_eva]

YES!! they're soo ugly. omgsh grandma slippers.

i thought i've never see this topic ever again [from this other forum site] but here i am, haha

do not get sucked into that trend! it's ugly!

[..:loveee.NuTTii]

AHHHHHH-I vehemently hate those shoes. Do they even look chinese? They look ugly and cheap. Everyone at my school seems to love them though. My best friend keeps nagging me to get a pair so then all our friends would have matching foot gear. I wish we had more violent Emoticons.

[heyyfrankie]

yeah. alot of girls at my school wear them and i don't like them that much. their aren't like drastically ugly but i don' think that they are hot, either.

[pnai4eva]

a lot of girls wear them in my school. I never baught a pair tho, because they remind me of slippers my grandma wears >.<

[maia_dc]

I think girls like them because it's so easy to find a perfect match with your shirt color. Sooo uhh ionno.

[5ayuri]

I don't like them at all, I guess there are some nice ones but not my style.

[sheddingtears]

personally, i think they're kind of ugly. no offense.

[synthase]

yes i do see girls wearing them and i wear them x)
but i dont brag about them

[emazing]

Yeah, Chinese slippers/shoes seem to be in right now, but I don't really care.

[honeyally]

I use to see practically EVERYONE wearing those in the summer. I hate them though... >.>

[silver-rain]

I don't really like them, I think they're kinda ugly. I think that they might be going out of style, hopefully hah.

[`SWTWiNKLE3YES]

yeahhh i hate them. i personally think theyre very ugly and cheap-ish

[*iNyCxShoRT*]

I don't really like them, they have no support.

[IceCream4U]

Ew, I hate chinese slippers.

I like cute flats, I love mine. Hmm..they're uncomfy? I can sleep in mine!! ((In fact...I brought them to the desert and my feet were cold and I didn't have any more clean socks...so I wore my flats! haha.))

I'm wearing them now =D


My step-sister and I are like the only people who wear them, and haha - the only people that shop at Abercrombie. Haha.

[aznxdreamer]

go to china and you can get chinese slippers for like...2330p02349 for two bucks. plus theyve been around for a while. i dno why it took them so long for the fad to travel across the pacific ocean.
