I use them and they are comfortable.

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

If what I see does not amaze me, I am not looking hard enough.

Some federations will not allow you to lift in socks. You have to have some sort of non-slip sole on your feet. Hence, deadlift slippers.

I love using deadlift slippers, cuts off like half an inch that would be on my shoes. I have also lifted in socks before too and i dont slip at all, probably cause i lift conventional tho. But in most pl federations you will need some kind of rubber sole on the platform tho.
