Now this is a fun way to keep the dust off tile and hardwood floors. Sandwiched between the slip-on shoe and the dust catcher cloth grabbers, is a full velcro pad that detaches and tossed into the wash. Available in yellow-green and hot pink, on store shelves now for $2.50! Fits size 6-9 ladies. Sorry guys, I didn’t see them in your size. An option, just spray End-Dust on your socks it does the same thing.

I love, love, love these. The first time I ever saw them advertised I bought a dozen of them. Mine were plaid. I blogged about them here: https://www.alleewillis.com/blog/2009/04/15/allee-willis-kitsch-o-the-day-dust-mop-slippers/
I still have most of the pairs left and have tried to withstand the temptation of getting them in other colors. But now that I see them here in that glowing, bionic neon green I just might have to add another pair to the stash.

Forgot to ask, where did you see them for $2.50? I’m sniffing around online and they’re all in the $12 area.
MyFunCloset
Yes $2.50! There’s a chain of GABRIEL BROTHERS bargain stores here in the Ohio, PA. NY, West VA. areas. If you wear a size 6-9, love this neon color &/or hot pink and have a paypal account, I’d be happy to send a bunch of them off to you. I got these just a few days ago and hopefully they are still in stock.
Just think of the creative painting you could do on these!
Allee Willis
I was very persistent and found a place online that had them for $4 so I bought out the three pairs that they had. But thank you so much for the shopping offer! This makes me think that perhaps GABRIEL BROTHERS is full of such similar treasures?

These slippers grabbed me immediately. I discovered this outlet a few years ago. What started out as new but distressed clothing, shoes and housewares has become a mecca for amazing deals with new & 2nds with labels cut out.
Did you get a print or bright solids? Same brand as these?
Allee Willis
Same brand as far as I know. One pair of pink and two green.

I have a finger microfiber duster in the exact neon yellow-green color to be used to clean computer keyboards and hard to reach places. It’s gotta be made by the same company in China.
Allee Willis
Do you mean a little thing that slips on your finger with a bunch of those shaggy dusting things hanging off of it? if so, I need that BAD! I never leave my computer and my keyboards end up being like TV trays, so bad that I usually have to swap them every few months because so much gets stuck inside. I’m constantly cleaning them so the keys stay nice and white but God only knows what slips down inside and gunks up the work. I need finger Slipper Genies!.
Michael Ely
Yes, it’s a little thing that slips on your finger with a bunch of those shaggy dusting things hanging off of it. Exactly like the slippers (same yellow-green / chartreuse color). They also come in hot pink.

Well, now I’ve ordered a complete matching outfit! I have two little finger mops coming as well as my Slipper Genies. Now if only there were a hat to clean hanging lights.
MyFunCloset
So they make it for feet and fingers. What about a glove? Till then, I can slip my hand into this Slipper Genie, and dust the big stuff, using the bottom grabbers to dust TV & monitor screens, keyboard, and hanging lights too. With two on your feet and two in your hands, the house with be dust free in half the time!

i’d kinda like a whole outfit made of this stuff…
