Feathered Friends Down Booties

Description

We absolutely adore our Feathered Friends Down Booties , the most heralded cold weather camp footwear of all time. When planning for temperatures below freezing, a warm sock won’t cut it, so we always pack down booties, and recommend you do too. Price: $119 Weight : 9.3 oz (per pair) Fabric: 20D Pertex Endurance Nylon Fill Power: 800 | Fill Weight : 4.0 Percent Down Weight : 43% Uncompressed Down Volume : 3200 Down Volume/Jacket Weight : 344 in3/oz Pros: Incredibly warm. High warmth to weight. Lightweight. Weather resistant. Cons : Minimal traction. Not ultralight. Expensive. Features These down booties from Feathered Friends are just great. First of all, they are modular, meaning there is an interior down sock, and an exterior Pertex Endurance shell with light duty water resistance. They can be cinched at both the calf and ankle for a secure fit. That said, they have very minimal traction, and are not great use outside of camp. They can be slippery on snow. Packed into each pair of booties is 4 oz of 800 fill power down. That’s basically an entire lightweight down jacket’s worth of plumes, just insulating your feet. So yeah, they’re preposterously warm. Verdict We’ve been using the Feathered Friends Down Booties for decades, and find them to be the warmest and best all around down booties money can buy, even if they aren’t the very lightest. They’re just so dang trustworthy and we know you will love them.
