What do you buy for the outdoor person who has everything? Between now and Christmas, we'll be running a daily Christmas Cracker featuring an inspired Christmas gift idea to help you cope with that tricky purchasing situation.

Number Ten: Rab Down Booties

If you've spent an evening in a Nepalese tea house or festering in some woebegone Scottish bunkhouse in mid-winter, or slumming it in an unheated Alpine hut then you'll know all about cold feet. That's where Rab's down Expedition Boots come in.

They're not boots as in walking or climbing boots, just super duper hut shoes. They're filled with top quality 660+ fill power Hungarian 90% goose down, made from Pertex Endurance and have an abrasion resistant stretch Cordura sole for toughness.

But most importantly, they've very, very warm. And hey, the possibilities are endless. Think of them as the ultimate high tech slipper and you won't go far wrong.

Ideal for the cold-footed outdoors person in your life :-) Suggested retail is a far from cheap £80 or so, but what price warm feet? And no, they're not available in crocodile form...
