About this deal

No matter how comfortable your boots, it’s always a nice feeling after a long walk to unlace them and free your feet from their confines. The Rab Hut Boots are almost identical to the low-cut slipper version below the ankle, but the boot version continues up the leg for added warmth and comfort. If you are someone who really appreciates being warm on a cold day or night, then these synthetic down booties might be for you. It should be noted that these boots don’t just keep your ankles warm but also make your feet warmer which can make them a bit too hot for summer nights. MATERIAL: PERTEX Microlight Rip-stop outer fabric, Soft brushed microfleece lining, Adjustable ankle If you are anything like me, you will buy these for camping and end up using them every day at home, around the house or garden. If you have ever tried a pair of Teva sandals, you will know how lightweight and comfy they are. These hiking slippers are even comfier.

There are two types of camping slippers you might be looking for. The first is a pair of slippers you can take camping to wear outdoors; The second is some insulated slippers you can wear inside your tent and even sleep in to prevent cold feet. Some slippers do both, but others are heavily weighted one way or the other. The main decider here is the type of sole you choose.

What are Camping Slippers for?

Even if your insulated slipper soles are waterproof, wet grass can still affect your comfort if the fabric on top isn’t. You will find that most of the tent slippers in this guide use a durable water-repellent (DWR) treatment which helps. The material also needs to be durable as you will expose them to abrasions with every step (potentially). Nylon material is a safe bet. Size Many camp slippers will have a reinforced fabric sole which is great for inside a tent or sleeping bag, but outside, these suffer when you step on even slightly damp ground. Rubber soles offer the best protection for camping slippers outside but also are the least practical and, frankly, unnecessary inside a tent. The rand or height that the sole reaches is also something to look for as the higher the protective sole fabric goes, the better waterproof protection you will have. Material The outer fabric of the uppers is 30 denier Pertex Quantum, with a subtle ripstop pattern in the material. The lining is soft-feel 20 denier fabric and insulation comes from PrimaLoft Silver Insulation Luxe, which retains its warming properties when damp better than down. As already covered above, the insulation type should be one of your first considerations when looking for some warm camp footwear inside your tent. Down insulation offers the best weight-to-warmth ratio but synthetic insulation works better if it gets wet. Choose wisely, and get in touch if you have any questions. Sole The sole unit is a non-slip material, and the Cirrus Hut Slippers also have a 600 denier reinforced nylon lower edge wrapping all the way round them. The sole is semi stiffened and has a cushioned EVA footbed.

The Rab Hut Slippers are one of my favorite types of slipper for taking camping for their simple but effective construction and durable nature. The Pertex Quantum ripstop fabric can withstand light showers and a few steps on wet grass but is not designed to be worn like lightweight hiking boots. Once you know what kind of insulation you want, you can choose the length and style of the slipper to suit your camping needs. Low-Cut Slippers Not all camping slippers are waterproof, and some are even not supposed to be used outdoors at all. If your camping slippers are waterproof, they will have some kind of membrane within the outer fabric and feature a rubber sole to lift them off the ground. As far as we know, there are no fully waterproof camping slippers out there, but if there are, we will be sure to let you know. Are Camping Slippers Worth It? The main features to look for in tent slippers and booties are the insulation type, the sole durability, warmth, and waterproofing. This is how we prioritize the specifications of camping slippers: Insulation Camping slippers are designed to keep your feet warm either inside your tent and sleeping bag or to wear around your camp in the morning and evening. They are the single best way to reward your feet after a tough day of hiking, and nothing feels better than taking your boots off, cleaning your feet, and then slipping into your slippers.Surprisingly warm for their weight and well constructed with a reinforced sole area, these slippers could make a perfect gift for someone with cold feet to even use around the house.

MATERIAL: Durable downproof nylon outer shell fabric with DWR, Internal elastic heel strap, Adjustable elastic draw closure SOLE: Rubber outsole with Teva RAPIDresist technology, 30mm dual layer Teva ULTRA-COMF foam footbed There are a few benefits to synthetic outdoor slippers, but the main three are that they work even if you get them wet, they are more durable, and they are cheaper than down filling. Because slippers are quite small, the insulation doesn’t significantly impact the weight because most of the weight is made up of fabric and soles. So camping slippers with synthetic fiber insulation are not such a bad choice if you want to wear your slippers outdoors around camp. Benefits of Down Camping Hut Slippers In this guide to the best camping slippers and down booties, we share the warmest, most lightweight, and most comfortable slippers to wear inside a tent (or out). We look for things like waterproofing on the soles and grip, sizing, and the different types of camp slippers you need to know about. If you want some camp slippers you can wear every day without worrying about getting wet, then the Howser 2 Outdoor Slippers from KEEN are ideal. They are like a hybrid slipper that feels like a shoe but are much comfier for lounging around in.

You might be wondering whether to buy down or synthetic camping slippers and are probably aware of the benefits of each. Just in case, here are the reasons why both camping slipper insulation types have their benefits: Benefits of Synthetic Camping Slippers The trouble is, your tootsies will soon cool down and, especially if you’re camping on cooler days, they’ll soon start to feel the chill. Rab’s Cirrus Hut Slippers are soft and insulated, and designed to slip on after a hard day on the trail or on the hills, so keeping your feet both comfortable and warm. Hard to say which is best but if your priorities are warmth and coziness, then down is the winner, or if you want to wear your slippers outside, then synthetic insulation makes more sense. You can get down slippers with waterproof fabric, a rugged sole, and synthetic insulation that is warmer than down. But in general, this is a good guideline. Camping Slippers Vs Booties
