Slippers, the "most no-fail gift ever," have stepped into a new world, says Erin Carstens at DudeIWantThat.com. The Warmies Cozy Plush Body Boots ($25) are made to be microwaved: Just zap them briefly and they emerge "magnificently warm and cozy." They're filled with millet grain and lavender, both of which have drawbacks. The millet is heavy and hard to walk on, and the lavender makes a wearer smell "like an old lady perfume store" until the slippers have been nuked a few times. But the filling can be chilled for cold therapy or warmed for heat therapy, and the plush fabric is "extra soft to the touch."
