Sierra Designs Men's Pull-On Down Booties
I purchased these down booties to replace the ones my husband had for over 20 years. They had hole in the soles and he was not longer able to use them. They were a birthday gift and he was thrilled to get them, until he tried them on. They were too small so I had to return them and get a larger size. So they are not true to size.

Great booties
I bought these for my husband, who has chronically cold feet. He finds them to be the warmest he has ever found. He really like the foam footpad - much warmer than others he's had - and softer on the foot, too. Sturdy enough to wear to the mailbox, but comfortable enuf to wear inside all day. The upper has a cloth cuff that runs down inside the bootie, providing a softer feel and added warmth.

not as advertised
these down booties are much smaller than the size listed. men's XL is really about a size 10 mens. They run small. also there is an annoying cuff inside near the ankle, which makes them less comfortable. they are not super warm, compared to other down booties, and the sol;e padding is not great. color was brighter than shown on web site.

Great down booties
I dig these booties!
The only complaint I have is that they have very little loft. In other words, the down is not fluffy at all. They still get the job done, and the fluff is enough.

Sierra Designs knows their down booties
This is my second pair of Sierra Design down booties. I once wore a pair completely to death. To this day I'm not sure what happened to them. I can't imagine I threw them away.
These new booties are even better than the ones I had before. They have a better, tougher sole. I've used them a couple of weeks now and they show no wear on the bottoms from being worn all day around the house. I have every confidence they will last another 5 years at least. They are warm without being sweaty. I can keep them on until it really is warm enough to do without them. I use a light cotton sock as a liner. There is an elastic band around the ankle that keeps them on that was a little irritating at first, but now I don't notice it. Maybe it breaks in. There is an adjustable closing at the top that I don't use and don't imagine I ever will, but I'm glad to see it there anyway.
If I were to do it again, I might go to their next fancier bootie, just because they are bound to be even better.

Booties
I bought these primarily to keep my feet warm around the house and they do that well. In fact, I sometimes have to pull them off about once and hour because my feet get sweaty in my socks. I think they run small in length. I wear a size 11 and the extra large fits me well, have a hard time believing a size 13 could wear the same size without stretching the material lengthwise but could be wrong. The sole material material looks like some kind of heavy ballistic cloth with rubber traction dots. If my soles show wear on the fabric, some shoe goo ought to make them last forever. The inner sole does not compress much, I don't think there is much insulation under foot. I haven't snow camped in them yet, but the draw string around the top should keep the snow from dropping into the bootie on a quick trip outside.

A lovely bootie
I had a pair of soft-bottom Sierra Design booties that I bought in '03 that were way past their prime. I opted to replace them with these, and I've been very happy so far. The bottom of these is flexible but much more firm than my old ones. They're still ok to wear in a tent or on your driveway. You definitely don't want to wear them on any wet surfaces, however, as they'll soak through in a hurry. The draw-string is solid and the booties are very warm.
They do run a bit small. I usually wear size 8-8.5 shoes, so I bought the 8.5-9.5 booties. My foot barely fits into them. Definitely buy at least a full size up if you get these.

Great Booties
I love these. I got them to wear around the house in the winter and to put on when camping on cold days. I have yet to take them camping but they keep my feet toasty in the house. My feet are warmer in these then in Uggs. The only thing negative that I can say is that they appear to run a little small. I'm a size 10.5-11 and my toes are a little crunched in the large size but I can deal with it.

fantastic
they fit well they are easy to put on and remove and most of all they are VERY warm

bad sizing, no loft
I had read in some of the reviews that the sizing on these ran small, so I ordered a size larger than I normally would. They were still too small. My toes were crammed in them. Also, they have no loft. I am used to down products that fluff up and get nice and puffy. These were flat. I can't comment on their durability as I sent them back immediately. Luckily, with Altrec returning them was simple.

Husband loves them!
My husband wouldn't part with his old down booties until we found something comparable. Finally, I got lucky and found these online and placed them under the Christmas tree. I didn't know if they would arrive on time for Christmas, but Altrec did an awesome job of shipping just in time. He says that his feet are even warmer now than with his last booties. I ordered a size up to make sure they would fit well, and they did. The quality is great and I highly recommend these to anyone looking for down comfort slipper booties!

Great value. Fits to size. Durable product for the campsite, but also comfortable enough for kicking around the house during the winter months.

Warm and Comfortable
I purchased one pair as a present and one for myself. We are both vey pleased with the comfort and warmth. They are light, easy to put on and take off, and are warm but not hot. They are great for around the house. As indicated in other reviews, I suggest you should order a size larger than you would normally wear because they do run a little small. I cannot comment on durability since we have only had them a week.

Good value
Fits well, not too snug at the ankle (which was a problem I had with the North Face Nuptse III Down Booties). Seem to be plenty warm, but I've only worn them around my cold house, not at a winter campsite yet. I shopped a lot on the web and these seemed to be the best combo of high down loft (700 fill) and price.

Warm and comfortable
Booties keep my feet warm even with a drafty floor. Soles block cold even on a cold walking surface. Height of booties keep ankles/lower shins warm, which helps to keep feet warm. Appears they will last a long time.
To be right, better get one size bigger than the size chart says. Then they fit with the proper wiggle room.

Sierra Stonewalling
These booties look better than they are. The picture online is misleading.
There is no actual loft. I ordered a pair, took them out of the box, left them out for 5 days, and they remained as flat as when I first unpacked them. Also, the sizing is off. Sierra Designs claims that for men whose size is 10 - 11, the large is the appropriate size. My shoe size is 9 1/2. I ordered the large, just to have a little extra room and loft. NOT! These booties fit like rock climbing shoes. Ouch! Avoid ‘em. Look elsewhere.

Love-Love-Love my booties
I can't believe just how warm and how comfortable these booties are. Why I didn't buy them earlier, I don't know. I highlly recommend them to anyone that wants a warm slipper that feels so good on. The size runs true.

warm and comfortable
I have peripheral neuropathy so i wanted a bootie which was soft, warm, roomy and yet tough enough to endure a little chewing from my dog. This bootie has fulfilled all my needs. On the advice of another reviewer i bought a size large even though i would ususally wear a mens small, and it fits perfectly. Apparently they run really small.

Toes say "Two Thumbs up!"
I bought these for my wife to replace a pair of similar booties that I had given her 10 years ago. the first pair were much bulkier and made the cats nervous when they rubbed together.
The Sierras are quieter and much smaller in girth. Despite the smaller bulk, she says they are at least as warm and she loves them.
So thank you Sierra designs!

Great!
These are very toasty. Run a little smaller than the previous ones we had. My husband wears a size 9 shoe and ordered a L. (M was too small so we had to exchange) But very warm!

Absolutely the BEST!!!
Hard to take these off to go back to the real world. This may be the one clothing item that we all need -- men, women, children. Cushy, warm, cozy, and totally cool! Runs small -- order a size larger than regular size.

comfortable, form fitting
really nice deal for the price
February 16, 2010
Love these!
These booties are everything I expected. Do remember that they run small. I usually wear a woman's size 7 1/2 to 8. I ordered a men's large and they fit perfect. They are very warm and comfortable. I also like the non-slip sole. I would definitely buy another pair.
January 28, 2010
only one drawback
These are the perfect indoor/tent bootie. Warmth from insulation on all sides & the bottom. The drawback: sizing is extremely small. Don't go by the sizing chart. I had to buy 2 sizes larger to get a bootie that fits.

Great Bootie
Great purchase. Good quality.

Very Nice & Warm!
These things are great! I have a 9.5 size foot, and unfortunately I ordered a medium (they were a little tight despite what the sizing chart claims).. but that was ok, because they fit my girlfriend fine and they are great, so I ordered another pair for myself in large. Worth the money... twice!

down booties
Bought for a gift and thought they were made very nice but sized small. I had to send them back and order the next size up.

down booties
Bought the tent booties for my boyfriend for a Christmas gift, he has really enjoyed them around the house and can't wait to try them when we go camping or up to the snow. Read the review and ordered a size large. Been thinking about getting a pair for myself next.

SOO warm and comfortable
I purchased these booties and when I put them on I could immediately feel the warmth on my cold feet. After you wear them for a few minutes your feet feel like they have been put inside an electric foot warmer..These Booties are the BEST !!! Great product.. You will be glad you bought them on the first really cold windy night.

Toasty
I was using an electric blanket to keep my feet warm in the basement while at my computer. I bought these hoping I could ditch the blanket. They work!! Very warm and everyone is right they run a bit small so get the next size up.

Sizing
The booties are great! I bought them for my dad and he loves them! The sizing is a little off so you need to make sure you purchase a size bigger than what they would wear in a normal shoe size otherwise they'll be too tight.
