Acorn Polar MOC Woman’s Slipper
Retail price: $36 (we received these for gear testing from Outdoorbabynetwork.com) 
Specs per manufacturer: Color me cozy! These colorful moccasins feature original and proprietary printed Acorn Comfort Fleece uppers. They’re fully lined in a cozy microfleece that quickly wicks moisture away from your skin. Featuring a lofty Acorn memory-foam midsole over a comfort cushion layer of featherweight EVA. In addition, the enhanced, raised heel and arch add extra stability and support. Non-slip, weatherproof soles make them perfect for indoor/outdoor use.
Findings: After a hard day on the trail, or even an easy one, it is so nice to kick off your boots and slip into something comfortable. It’s like homemade mac and cheese for your feet. There is a practical aspect as well. It is important to let your shoes/boots dry out over night and equally important to let your feet dry out. Slippers offer a great way to accomplish this foot maintenance. The weight is negligible in your back. Although they aren’t super compressible, they do squeeze in well. The fleece is warm and cozy. The padding feels like a cloud under your feet–or so says my daughter. She was the tester here. As for the mom report, the construction is solid. After 120 miles of backpacking, 150 miles of kayaking and a bunch of nights car camping, they are still going strong. I really appreciate any gear that holds up for than one season. The only real wear in on the insole which doesn’t affect function. In fact, I’m considering getting a pair for myself!
