One woman responded with a photo of her husband happily mopping the floors in the socks.

‘They are the best, even my partner wants to wear them,’ she said.

The original poster was happy to answer everyone’s questions – with one woman asking if she does the entire floor in the footwear.

‘I love going over scuff marks from shoes with them. So I mop it first, if mark is still there do a scrub with my toes and it lifts up,’ she said.

‘Do these come in onesies? Asking cause my eight month old is commando crawling everywhere. Will save me washing the floor every night,’ one mum asked. 

Others questioned if the shoes were waterproof.

‘Do your feet get wet when you wear them?’ One woman asked.

However the question, which was repeated by many, was left unanswered.  

They are listed on eBay as ‘Lazy floor foot socks’ and are cheaper with every additional pair.
