I am a college freshman and the whole experience has held a ton of surprises and fun ways to learn and grow. One of the weird shockers, that I did not expect was how much use I was going to get out of my old tan Ugg slippers. I highly recommend the investment because it will pay off and you will not regret it.
1. Wear them on your dorm floor
Whether your walk to the communal bathroom is long or short, slippers are the right call to get from place to place on your floor. If you have to run to the bathroom late at night or get to the get there in the morning to brush your teeth, slippers are the easiest and most convenient choice of footwear.
2. Wearing them in your room
While your room may be a tad bit dusty or dirty it's not always fun to go barefoot. You can slip into them while you study or vacuum in your room, so your feet remain cozy and warm.
3. Wearing them in the morning
Before, you go to sleep set up your slippers beside your bed so that when you wake up your feet can slip right into them. If you have an early morning class, you can walk to your local coffee shop in them (if it's close by) and still feel comfy while you get your caffeine fix.
4. Go to lass in your slippers
Okay, so in terms of college attire, when it comes to classes, people dress rather laid back. I have worn slippers when I have an early or even afternoon class, that I just can't wear my stiff sneakers too. There is no shame or judgment in remaining comfy while in class! In fact, most people are probably doing the same.
5. They are perfect for cold weather
Slippers are especially useful if you attend college in a cold place. The winters at Syracuse can be rather lengthy and I would much rather have a pair of slippers in my closet rather than my flip flops, even if it is just for indoor use.
6. Time saver
This reason is a little absurd. Just hear me out! In college, laziness takes on a whole new meaning in your life and you would be surprised at the things you find yourself doing in order to procrastinate or avoid doing something. However, when you are rushing in the morning, sometimes you just don't have time to untie your shoelaces, slip them on, and tie them once again.
Ugh, the agony! Why go through all of that, when you can just slip on some soft and luscious footwear. Although you have to get out of bed, you can remain somewhat in your sleepy state by giving your feet a comfy cushion.
