The covers work great for protecting your dance shoes. DSI
I chose these to wear when camping to keep my feet warm. With waterproof, hard fabric on bottom, you can walk around without getting too wet or dirty. I especially like the strap because it prevents the booties from falling off while sleeping. Great quality and they look nice!
Nieces love these and protects their shoes right after dance classes!
Bought these booties for my daughter who dances in February and it’s April, and they’re already ripping at the seams. So disappointed that a reputable brand hardly lasted a dance season. Love the pattern but annoyed that I wasted over $50 for a horribly made product.
I have gone through several pairs of slippers and thermal socks looking for something to keep my feet warm without sweating to death with no success until I found these. These booties are the best thing ever! My feet are warm, no additional socks are required, and they don't sweat. The best thing is they are booties and not mid-calf things. I have large calfs the mid-calf cousins to these booties didn't fit me well. These fit great. I take a 9.5 wide in women and got the XL and they fit, a little loose, but perfect if you want a thick sock with them, otherwise go for a large. They feel like they'll hold up well, I guess time will tell. I'm just happy to find something so fantastically warm that fits. Highly recommend these booties to all!.
