Product Information

Mid-calf booties are a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor use, as they strike a balance between insulation, mobility, and versatility. When you knit those scrappy socks from the toe up, you don’t have to worry about running out of yarn before you finish the sock. Featuring conductive ends on both the index finger and thumb, these gloves will allow you to use your smartphone and other touch screen devices without having to remove them. An internal elastic heel strap as well as the elastic strap on the hem ensure a snug fit on the foot. I slept in a Katabatic Flex 30 Ultralight Quilt on a Therm-a-Rest Neo Air XLite inside a Gossamer Gear The DCF One Tent.

While you do eventually get the hang of estimating how long you can make your cuff without running out of yarn for the foot, there’s always a little room for something to go wrong. Overall, when considering cuff length in a pair of down booties, think about how and where you’ll be using the shoes the most.The three most common cast-ons for toe-up socks seem to be the Turkish cast-on, the figure-eight cast-on, and Judy’s Magic Cast-On. Quilted exteriors keep the insulation from shifting around too much thus allowing the insulation to retain heat even better than before. With their non-slip sole and ThermoPlume insulation, these all-gender booties were made to be worn at the hut on any deep winter expedition. Made for all that want to keep their feet warm after a long day on the trail, compact and light to fit in any pack.

With a soft texture, Ventum is not sticky or plasticky like some other fabrics in this weight range. For almost no weight and a tiny amount of space in my pack, I put up a strong defense against hypothermia. Perfect for hanging around the house or relaxing on those long chilly plane rides, these booties will keep your feet extra warm. But if you’re going to be using your down booties while trudging through snow or exclusively outside, the added adjustability from a drawstring closure will be your best bet.It is highly effective in keeping the user’s feet warm and insulated, while still being lightweight and packable.

You knit a square jutting off from the leg, turn the heel, pick up stitches along the heel flap, and decrease to form the gusset.Down booties are the most common way of insulating your feet in winter and are usually more versatile and durable, though we did include a few down socks on this list as well. This sub is about overnight backcountry backpacking, with a focus on moving efficiently, packing light, generally aiming at a sub 10 pound base weight, and following LNT principles.

The Hot Socks are similar to Rab’s booties, except these are made with recycled synthetic insulation instead of recycled down. But if you’re looking for truly reliable warmth in a light and portable package, down booties are the way to go.

It has to be loose enough to get over your heel but elastic enough to hold the sock up once the sock is on. Our Men's Ventum Shell is crafted to cut the breeze and trap warmth in your base layer or against your skin. Because the cuff of your sock is the finish point for toe-up socks, you need to make sure your bind-off is nice and stretchy.
