Voited Soul Slipper https :// voited . co . uk By Dale Mears
The Voited Soul Slipper is an eco-conscious , lightweight , and packable travel slipper built to provide comfort for your feet during your kayaking / camping expedition or to give your feet a warm , comfy feeling at home . product design and delivery process to be proud of . I was delighted to try their Hot Stuff leggings and blown away by how clever they are .
They have carefully lined the neoprene leggings with an excellent titanium liner in locations of your body ’ s natural hotspots . This technology allows your body ’ s heat to be reflected back into your body instead of escaping out the neoprene , helping to regulate your temperature . They are still soft and stretchy to allow maximum flexibility , and I ’ ve found them extremely comfortable .
You can wear them out paddling on their own , and in the colder months , you can use them as a base layer under your wetsuit to build up extra warmth . This makes them outstanding value , being that they are so versatile you can wear them all year round .
I wore the Hot Stuff leggings for the Trent100 event , where we had lovely sunny weather on day one and cold , wet , windy weather on day two . I wore the same outfit on both days to test the ability of the leggings . Surprisingly , I was at a really comfortable temperature on both days . Even after having an unexpected swim , I didn ’ t get cold .
It ’ s been an absolute pleasure to paddle in leggings instead of the whole suit , allowing me to add a rash vest , bikini or neoprene jacket . It ’ s made getting ready to paddle quicker and getting packed up to go home much easier .
The Rooster leggings are a must for paddlers ; they are comfortable , extremely durable and warm . Price : £ 65.00
The slippers are also a great option to warm your feet when getting off the water . These are water-resistant and memory foam-soled slippers designed for adventure .
Solid and durable soles make these great for the outdoors . On a range of surfaces , these hold up well . The fabric is a waterrepellent ripstop made using the same deprived recycled fabrics from which their blankets are made . This is made using recycled plastic bottles .
The memory foam sole is very comfy so far ! And combined with a fleece lining , it feels very warm . The sizing is pretty accurate . I am a size ten and went for the extra large , 10 +. If mine are slightly bigger , I wouldn ' t want to size down .
Although I ' ve not had these for long and mostly wear them around the house and garden , I have kids , so these have got filthy . What has impressed me is that they clean easily in the washing machine ; they just take a while to dry as the memory foam absorbs a lot of water .
I can ' t wait to throw these in the van when away on sup / camping trips ; these will be like a dryrobe for the feet . Colours : Tree Green , Ocean Navy , Graphite , Vegan Nubuck and Cardinal ( as shown ). Sizes : S , M , L or XL Price : £ 44.50
