It’s mainly a personal choice whether you choose high-ankle or lower-profile camping slippers. But of course, terrain and weather conditions might factor into this, too.  I personally prefer high-ankle designs as they protect your ankles from itchy ivy, bushes,  sharp branches, and other forest obstacles. High-ankle designs also provide more warmth around your feet. Low-profile designs like the North Face Thermoball and Chaco Revel slippers are super easy to slip on and let your ankles breathe. Consider which factors are most important to your typical campsite before settling on a pair.
