Our daughter-in-law found these for Rick in the Sears Wish Book! We ordered them and wow.....our solution for a winter boot/slipper that can work for both!
The slipper/boot opens wide open from the top and is adjustable using the velcro flaps. Made out of a heavy felt and a firm sole. The adjustable flaps allow for changes during the day as the feet swell. What is so wonderful is that they are also a closed toe so no air gets in.
We purchased them in a larger size so we could add warmer socks for outdoor use when travelling. These would work great for lots of folks dealing with diabilities not just ALS. You don't have to worry about toes curling you just have to open the slipper wide open and place the foot straight down on the sole and then velcro close.
