See my post just above yours. These boots have virtually no soles - almost slipper-like. I doubt if they were designed to walk in to any extent. Cyclists still have to walk a good bit and need boots with soles. That is why I must also consider they are liners for other boots.

Don't let that stop you from coming up with other ideas, however. THANKS!

I've come across "mukluk boots", "trooper boots" and "ski boots" kind of similar in style in googling images and different search words ... wih the mukluk ones being closest in design I think. Your mentioning them possibly being inserts is interesting (like the old felts we used to wear in our winter boots. Those boots you have, if inserts, look like they'd be inserts for the Arctic

For what it's worth
