UGG Kids Tasman II Slipper - Cozy, Durable Cold-Weather Choice

Our review of the UGG Kids Tasman II Slipper finds it best suited for children who need a warm, comfortable slipper that can double as a casual outdoor shoe. The single biggest reason to buy is the plush 17mm UGGplush insole and lining blend, which combines upcycled wool and TENCEL Lyocell to deliver notable warmth and softness without feeling overly heavy. The Tasman II is a straightforward, well-made kids slipper that balances comfort, thoughtful sustainability touches, and everyday durability.

Key Features

• Suede upper: provides a soft, classic look and a durable surface that resists everyday scuffs while remaining breathable.
• UGGbraid made from recycled polyester: decorative braid detailing uses 100% recycled fibers, adding visual interest while reducing new material use.
• 17mm UGGplush lining: the 60% upcycled wool and 40% TENCEL Lyocell blend offers substantial warmth and a soft feel against the foot.
• Textile collar with peppermint anti-odor treatment: helps keep the slipper smelling fresher longer in the collar area where wear and sweat occur.
• Foam footbed and sugarcane EVA outsole: combine light cushioning with a responsible foam compound that lowers reliance on fossil-fuel materials.

Who It's For

The Tasman II is ideal for parents shopping for a child who wants the look of a classic slipper with more substance: it works well as an indoor slipper for colder months and as a quick outdoor shoe for short trips. The warmth and soft 17mm lining make it a smart pick for winter climates or for kids who get cold easily.

Families seeking technical athletic footwear, heavy outdoor traction for rough terrain, or precise sizing consistency should look elsewhere; sizing opinions are mixed and the shoe is built more for comfort and casual wear than performance. Those who need waterproof protection should consider other options.
