Sizing ChartSierra Designs Men's Down Booties (30821)
Down booties have become more than just a luxury, and the Down Booties by Sierra Design for Men set the bar for design and comfort. They are one of the lightest, most packable amenities that you can ask for around camp or home. The high ankle profiles on the Sierra Design Down Booties deliver big on warmth, but you can also loosen the adjustable draw cords for a little venting. The cushy, non-skid nylon tread soles are equally at home during camp forays, or on a trip to the driveway to grab the Sunday paper.
- Toasty down-filled insulation with high ankle profile
- DWR water repellent finish
- Easily adjustable calf draw cord helps seal in heat
- Elasticized instep straps for improved fit with minimal slip
- Non-skid, cushy nylon tread soles resist saturation better than leather soles
Fit Tip: I have a 9.5 shoe size and found the large a nice snug fit

David Wilk - 2008-09-14Wear them from time I get home to the time I get up.
Have permanently cold feet. Put them on when I get home from work, sleep with them on - take them off to shower and dress in the morning. Keep a couple extra pair on stand-by. Best slippers ever!
Samantha White - 2008-03-11Exactly right
I bought them for my husband, because I have a pair and love them, and he wanted some for himself. We wear them indoors all Winter long, because we don't wear shoes indoors but needed protection from cold, hard floors, winterly blasts coming in under the doors, and little things that fall on the floor and are no fun to step on. These are warm and comfortable, never too hot, always cozy, make cold feet only a distant memory. We both got them in black, which gives them more of a dignified look, not exactly slippers.

These were just what I was looking for to keep the old feet warm on those cold Wyoming nights.

These booties are great for wearing around the house and camping. They are cozy, warm and the non-slip bottoms are ideal.
Anonymous - 2007-01-29They are wonderful!
My husband absolutely loves these slippers. Every time he puts them on he makes a comment about how much he likes them.
Spanky Concannon - 2007-01-03awesome booties, durable, warm and lightweight, great value
these down booties are an outstanding value, lightweight and extremely warm, I look forward to sliding my feet into them after a long, wet, and cold day of fishing offshore for striped bass in december and janurary. They also stowe nicely in my gear bag, I dont leave the dock without them.
Anonymous - 2006-12-14Kicking around...
I bought these booties to keep my feet warm and they certainly do that very well. I think my socks will last longer now that I am not walking around in them. A bit more substantial sole would allow me to walk outside in them but then I'd need another pair of booties for indoor use.
Jay D - 2006-04-02Very comfortable
Just what I wanted to keep my feet warm inside. People have criticized the soles, but I didn't expect to be able walk outside with them.
Randy Cox - 2006-03-13Great value, well made, very warm!
I love these down booties!! They are great for winter camping and I have slept in them. They have kept my poor cold, old tired feet toasty!
Daniel Cothran - 2006-02-26Awesome
Light weight and super warm. Would recommend to anyone heading out on a winter camping trip.
Anonymous - 2006-02-12Sierra Down Booties
These booties were purchased for a camping outdoors dog sled trip. However, we have been wearing them around the house and they are great! I know they will do well around the campfire at night in the Boundry Waters in Northern Minnesota! The customer service is just as great as the booties. Thanks!
A. Lillie - 2006-02-01So incredibly comfortable and warm. Buy them.
Wonderful bootie. So comfy and warm. Also structurally robust. Good for inside in front of the TV and outside around the campfire.
Anonymous - 2006-01-27Great buy
We took them skiing and they were a great way to keep your feet warm. Even outside.
Anonymous - 2006-01-25Gotta love 'em
I love these things. Sure, they're a little warm around the house when it's warm and the tread is a little light, but that's how they're made. One thing that would be nice is a soft liner inside, but I guess socks do fine.
Richard - 2006-01-07Wonderful
I bought a pair for camp wear, being light,warm and packable. Now I use them around the house all the time. Soles are thick enough to use outdoors. I enjoy them so much that I gave several to family for Chrismas. Very happy with them.
Jim Miller - 2006-01-06Outstanding
Light, warm in the coldest temperatures and they keep the ankles toasty. Even better was the quick response and delivery. They were on my feet two days after ordering and that was at the height of the holiday season. Great work Altrec!
Montrose - 2006-01-02great product
my wife and kids love them. I bought several pair for my friends as gifts. thank you
LV - 2005-12-26Great
Super light and warm. Graet bootie for the price. The sole has little tread, so no good on hardpack.
Ben H. - 2005-12-25Warm!
I am currently in Afghanistan serving the military as a contractor, and in my little self made room it gets really really cold. I ordered these so that I could get around witout freezing or wearing my work boots all the time. These are warm, and dry, the lanyard at the top really keeps things in place. I recomend ordering a size over for nice thick sox, the sox are not to stay warm, but to keep the slipper boots clean and sweat free. Good boots for a cold night!
Anonymous - 2005-12-11Very Warm!
The only problem with these booties is that they may be too warm. They are great on cold mornings in the backcountry, or to ensure you don't get cold feet at night, but if you are just looking for slippers to wear around the house, this product is overkill.
Nop - 2005-04-10Great boot for a great price
This is a great down boot. It keeps my feet warm when I am outside in the cold weather. Highly recommended
Anonymous - 2005-03-20Warm and comfortable
Nice pair of down booties to keep your feet warm!
Paul L - 2005-03-05Cumfy & durable!
Purchased for a hut-to-hut trip on 10th mtn trail. I was in and out of the hut shoveling snow, running to the outhouse and preparing gear. I didn't expect the booties to work well under these conditions and was I wrong - they were great! They didn't get too warm inside and worked well with short exposures (even when sinking in powder to my knees several times) to snow. Great product! Nice at home too!
Anonymous - 2005-02-22very warm and kept feet toasty
These booties are just what I needed. More importantly,Altrec is a company which has won our business. We have been more than pleased with their service and have passed their name on to all our outdoor friends. Thank you!
Anonymous - 2005-02-13Bulky, but warm.
The soles are a little thin, and they look kind of bulky, but they weigh practically nothing and provide excellent warmth. Terrific on wood floors during our cold northeastern winters.
Dan B. - 2005-02-04Toasty Warm
Just received the mens down booties today and they're extremely well fit and warm. The item was here two days after purchase and with free return shipping, which I don't intend to use.
Anonymous - 2005-01-29Wonderful and warm
Wonderful slippers. Just used them after skiing on a very cool day to get feeling back in my toes.
Richard - 2005-01-24Their great
I love the boots and I love the service. You'll be getting more orders in the future.
Anonymous - 2005-01-09Comfy as can be.
These down booties are great. They weigh next to nothing, have a nice padding, don't overheat your feet, are fine for a run out to the garage or even the front walk (probably snow too but I haven't tried it yet...).
Anonymous - 2005-01-06Excellent.
Just the thing for warm feet on a midnight run to the loo on a cold night.
Anonymous - 2005-01-05perfect gift for an outdoorsmen!
I bought these down booties for my boyfriend who always complains about cold feet when we go camping - he loved them! They kept his feet warm in the coldest of conditions.
Allen R. Sandico - 2005-01-05Shake Your Booties!
The booties were very warm and effective in keeping my feet feeling toasty and good. It was very comfortable and made lounging around my house a nice little vacation. I recommend a pair to anyone who likes to keep their feet warm. It gives a great campy feel. Bottom line, it was bootylicious! :-D
Baldy - 2005-01-04Super warm
Awesome boots. Half the price of the Mountain Hardware booties with the same construction.
Jimmy - 2004-12-31Great booties.
These booties are well made, warm, and very comfortable. I took the advice of others and ordered one size large. My shoe size is 10.5. Size XL fits my feet perfect. Both with and without heavy socks. Overall I'm very pleased with these booties.
Anonymous - 2004-12-30Love them
I'm not happy unless I have these on in my apartment. They are great!
Anonymous - 2004-12-26Downy deal
These booties are everything they say they are and more. Warm, roomy and comfortable, I especially like the high ankle and light tread.
Anonymous - 2004-12-21best slippers ever!!
These slippers are the best slippers around. They are warm and comfortable....they DO run a bit small so if you are borderline, go for the bigger size. Other than that they are great. They seem durable....I actually stocked up on them (got a few pairs) since good bootie slippers are hard to come by.
Anonymous - 2004-12-21Finally--warm feet
Tried everything else, but my feet were *always* cold. Got these a month ago, and my dogs have been toasty since. My shoe size is 10 1/2-11, very wide, and Large fit fine, even over two pairs of wool socks. Excellent investment.
Mike - 2004-12-19Exceeded expectations
I knew they'd be good, but exceeded expectations. Am in a living situation without heat and needed something I could depend on to keep my feet warm. Even with the hefty price tag they're worth it.
Anonymous - 2004-11-16The Cats meow
A very warm bootie I love them, the no slip bottoms help around the wooden floors of the home, as to not make an ice skating rink. The bottoms also allow a quick trip outside to get wood, or chuck the garbage.
I also use them to drive home in after a "stressful" day on the slopes.
I have no real complaints, except they make your feet look big, so if your a style freak look elsewhere.
Dave - 2004-11-15So warm
I just recently purchases these booties and it was the best thing I did. I have the coldest feet and when they are cold I am cold. But now with these booties my feet are so warm. I highly recomend you give them a try.
Anonymous - 2004-11-09down booties
I love these booties. As soon as I get home from work the shoes come off and booties go on. In fact I'm buying a pair for my boyfriend for Christmas so he won't steal them anymore!
Anonymous - 2004-10-26unparalleled warmth
I have a circulation problem in my feet and they are always getting cold. These are the only pair of slippers I've ever worn that actually keep my feet toasty.
C - 2004-10-26Toasty
These booties proves to be eveything it sets out to be. The fit is loose to provide adequate comfort and insulation yet snug enough to avoid being cumbersome. Great fit!
Anonymous - 2004-10-18No Cold Feet!
Warm! Run a little on the short side, but wonderfully blissful on cold nights.
Dean - 2004-10-17Great shoe for warmth
My wife and I have worn these shoes for the past 14 years. This will be our third pair.
Highly recommend these for winter warmth.
Anonymous - 2002-11-22hotter than habaneros
These may be too hot to wear around the house unless you live in drafty undergraduate conditions, but they are awesome for tent/snowcave/yurt living.
Anonymous - 2000-06-04A must have for mountaineering!
I just climbed Mt Rainier and wore these booties all the time at camp and they are great. They kept my feet warm and comfortable and I was able to walk around in them without slipping.
Jack Willis - 2007-02-11Altrec delivered on time and the Sierra booties keep toes warm
Altrec got me the booties fast. The Siera Design Bootes do keep you feet very warm. I love em, I got my wife and three daugters sierra booties and mules for Valentines. The only thing I do warn is watch where you walk. I snagged the side of mine on something sharp and I had FEATHERS EVERYWHERE! I took a little needle, thread and some down stuffin and the're back on my feet. Cheers!!
Sharon D Murphy - 2007-01-03Above average down booties
My husband lives in his down booties--the only ones that help soothe circulation problems. I've tried many brands over the years and these are the best. It's true the soles wear out quickly (when worn daily). Hence I buy 2 pairs a year (and unvoid his solution of electrical tape repairs). I already know what to get next Christmas -- 2 more pairs of down booties!
Max - 2006-03-16Warm but feel a little strange
Not having purchased a pair of booties with a "hard" sole before, these Sierra Desings booties were a new experience.
Warmth: Overall, high marks for warmth, they do the trick, at least around a cold Colorado household in the dead of winter.
Fit/Comfort: My foot is exactly the size of the bottom sole of the booties which means that my toes often move off the edge of the firm part of the sole so I find that my foot tries to grip the sole to keep the booties on. Obviously, they aren't falling off but my reaction to feeling the supported part of the booties slipping is to grip my toes. I don't believe ordering a larger size would have been better since I would then be tripping over the excess, but I won't ever know.
The only minor criticisms I have is that the outer sole material is lighterweight than I expected and I can't imagine it would take much walking around a campground before that material would tear or wear out, also the inner elastic sleeve that grips the lower ankle is a little tight, but maybe I should put my ankles on a diet.
Overall, I'm happy with this purchase, although as I feel my feet sweating in them, I do wish they had a washable liner, I guess that's what socks are for...
Emerson - 2006-03-11Glad I bought them
Just got back from ethan pond in the white mountains New Hampshire my first winter camping trip
temperatures in the single digits, whore them while sleeping, feet stayed warm ,had to get up in the night and walk through snow to get to outhouse they seemed fine. Great for hanging around in shelter or tent- but they may get wet when temp above freezing -glad I bought a pair and the price was right.
R. Sawyer - 2006-03-05Warm feet in NY
Winter camping is so much warmer now
Trish - 2006-01-02Wear out too fast
These booties are great to keep you warm, but after a couple of winters the bottoms begin to shred. Guess I'll have to buy another pair!
Admiral Togo - 2005-03-13Credible goods
I bought these for my urbanite wife who is at this point unlikely to go for hut to hut skiing, getting rancid in one week old sweaty clothes or the like.
She likes them fine. They have adequate traction, are warm and cozy.
Anonymous - 2005-02-28Great for Ski Mountaineering
I slipped my feet into these booties after a long day of ski mountaineering. The temperature was around zero fahrenheit at the time and my feet were happy campers.
Anonymous - 2005-02-21Cold Feet?
These booties are perfect for keeping feet warm and protecting them from cold floors or ground. The bottom does a good job at making sure that nothing sticks to it. Make sure to get the proper size as the closer the fit the better it warms feet and keeps them warm.
tim - 2004-11-13great value
Pro: this bootie is a great value. Well made, confortable and very warm. Reasonably comressable and great around camp in dry, cold climates. Con: my shoe size is mens 10 and the large is a smidge short. Not a deterent from keeping them.
reid jolin - 2008-01-06warm, medium foot padding
excellent warmth, but maybe the footbed could use a little more padding, otherwise well constructed
ben k. - 2006-12-18sierra designs down booties
I made a winter backpack with these booties in mind for camp. They were very comfortable until they leaked through. The conditions were right above freezing with snow on the ground. I wore them by the camp fire and started noticing that the snow on the heels was melting into the down. I know that sierra desings never stated that they were waterproof so shame on me. I just thought they could handle a litte. I went ahead and replaced them with the dri zone booties by sierra designs.
Anonymous - 2006-03-17Finally Found a pair
I was very excited to receive the boots after 20 yrs. of looking and designing my own. I would change the bottom sidewall to be firmer. My foot interior slides too much. I love how warm they are. Real down feathers. In wisconsin it can be cold. Easy to slip on. Can even go out to get the mail. Thanks
David Clough - 2006-03-06Nice but could be better
I have bought three pairs of this product; I do like them--actually, I like the concept more than the execution. The reason that I have bought three pairs of the Sierra Design Down Booties is that the soles wear out so quickly. If the soles were more durable--and I mean far more durable--I would not have to buy new ones every six months.
Jordan, from Montana - 2006-03-05Good, but not great
I took these down booties out winter camping a couple times in Montana and Wyoming near Yellowstone National Park and they were alright, but nothing spectacular. They were comfortable and my feet loved them after being in boots all day. But, they need more down to truly keep toes toasty. Good thing I have nice thick wool socks, cause otherwise I would've been jumping into my bag a lot sooner.
Anonymous - 2006-02-03Lackluster
I was happy with the quality. Well made booties filled with plush down to keep my feet toasty. The fit was also great. Although when it came to performance, SD fell short. These soles on these booties soak up water (melted snow) like a sponge. As long as you're not planning to use them in snow, I bet their great. If you can get a hold of Mountain Hardwear's version (discontinued), I'd recommend them....not their polarguard version....find the ones with down, their worth it.
ben - 2005-05-21average, but not great
These are very light weight for the backpacker trying to lower his/her winter trip total. I used them in mt Rogers wilderness area in VA. The temp was only about 33 but there was 1-2 feet of snow already packed into the mountain. After we set up camp I thought they would be comfortable to let the feet relax in after a long hike in. They were comfortable but I am a picky individual. They both soaked right through the heel into the down after a short period of time. I personally expect more out of a down bootie. Maybe you wont have this problem if the temp is colder.
Kevin - 2005-01-02Pretty cozy, but thin soles
Light, packable, good drawstring closure. Nice for winter camping/ski touring, but you can really feel the thin soles when standing on snow! Also, the little "dots" on bottom don't really provide any traction.
Anonymous - 2004-11-16They run small
I read that they run small and I do agree. I'm a size 13 and I bought the xl. I feel my big toe touching against the shoebox. I didn't try them outdoors yet.
Anonymous - 2008-01-01Poor Sole Design
The sole of bootie offers little padding or comfort - simply a thin, flat slab of foam. The length is sized well, but the width is oversized, and makes walking difficult.
I received these as a Christmas gift, and was excited to see the Altrec brand - disappointed at the lack of comfort walking on hard surface floors.
