Rab Down Hut Slipper

Product Information

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.

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. 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. The Fleece lined inner warms your feet up rapidly even when putting this on with cold feet in wintry conditions. 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.

Are Camping Slippers Worth It?

The cushioned sole coped well with gravel paths on camp and gave enough grip even on damp surfaces. 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. SOLE: Rubber outsole with Teva RAPIDresist technology, 30mm dual layer Teva ULTRA-COMF foam footbed 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?

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. The Baffin Base Camp Booties compress down small and will keep you warm even if they get wet thanks to the synthetic insulation. The insulation at the very top is fairly thin, but around your feet, they are very lofty. They are one of the heaviest options on our list of the top 10 camping slippers, but if weight is not a big deal, then these are great value and very durable.The KEEN Howser 2 Outdoor Slippers fit more like a shoe than any others in this guide. They are a slim, nimble, and much tighter fit than anything I’m used to. Not in a bad way… They are extremely comfortable for my wide feet and not hard to take off, just not as easy to slide into as the Teva Reember Terrain Moccasins above.

As well as being warm and comfortable in winter, the Hut Slipper from Rab does not overheat on warmer nights and are great for lounging around. We regard these as one of the best camp slippers and would recommend them to anyone looking for their next pair of camp shoes to wear at the end of a hike.The North Face Thermoball Traction Mule V are one of the best camping slippers for apres ski and putting on after a long day dealing with cold feet. There is a very nice balance between warmth/comfort and traction/durability, making these base camp slippers ideal for wearing inside and outside of the tent. 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. 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 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 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.

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 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 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 This is just one feature that gives this updated version of the Cirrus Hut Slippers a good sustainability score. The outer fabric and lining are both made from recycled material, and the PrimaLoft insulation is manufactured from 100 per cent post-consumer recycled synthetic material. Rubber soles with grip are what you need to wear your bushcraft slippers outdoors, as this ensures they stay dry and you don’t injure your feet on sharp objects lying on the ground. Fabric-soled slippers are the better choice to wear inside your shelter as they are less likely to damage your tent floor or air bed. Synthetic Vs Down Camp SlippersNo 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.
