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.

Are you looking for help to sleep but don't want
to spend out on a new mattress? Is the new mattress
you bought recently harder and therefore not as
comfortable as you hoped it would be?...
