Rab Down Hut Slipper

Product Information

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. 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 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.

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 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. 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 SOLE: Rubber outsole with Teva RAPIDresist technology, 30mm dual layer Teva ULTRA-COMF foam footbedThe 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. 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. 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.

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 Cirrus Hut Slippers are filled with PrimaLoft® Silver Insulation Luxe, a synthetic insulation made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottle chips. They have a recycled nylon lining and a breathable, weather resistant recycled Pertex® Quantum outer. The lower edge of the slipper is reinforced with tough nylon with a cushioned EVA foam footbed and a flexible, non-slip sole.

Our classic Down Hut Slipper has been reimagined with more sustainable materials. Filled with 700FP, P.U.R.E recycled down and an entirely recycled Pertex® Quantum outer these slippers have a light weight and a light footprint.

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. 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.

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. Keen is known for their protective toe boxes, and even these slippers have better toe protection than most trail running shoes. This gives you the confidence to wear them more like shoes and take care of tasks around camp without taking them off. The uppers are nicely water-resistant which is a necessity if walking on wet grass outside your tent.

Are Camping Slippers Worth It?

Like the slipper version, they are not really designed to walk around on the wet ground but can resist light rain and short stints on damp ground. Combine these with a pair of down pants and a down sleeping bag, and you will have sufficient warmth to keep your feet warm anywhere in the world. 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. The cushioned sole coped well with gravel paths on camp and gave enough grip even on damp surfaces. 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.
