The bathroom in winter, which is especially cold in the house, is no longer a training area if you clean it with bare feet. "Bath boots" play an active role there, but did you know that they are sold even at 100-yen stores?
However, I was wondering if it would be okay to buy it for 100 yen just because it was cheap ... if it broke immediately after wearing it ... so I decided to raise the budget to 500 yen and compare the bath boots this time.
lineup
We prepared ceria (100 yen), Daiso (150 yen), Nitori (185 yen), and Aeon (398 yen) bath boots. All of them are made of clean white, and they look very similar to each other even if they are replaced. * All prices do not include taxThe soles are also made of EVA resin with wavy grooves, although there are differences in pitch. There is no big difference in size up to 26 cm for Ceria Daiso and up to 25.5 cm for others. Is this decided by Hundred yen stores ...?
Hundred yen store slips ...!
However, there is a big difference when I wear it. If you wear ceria and Daiso bath boots with socks, the inside will slip tremendously! It can be a little frustrating to walk around in a small bathroom, as your feet will shift outwards (although it's okay to wear them barefoot ...).By the way, these two are made of thin polyethylene and look just like the sticky texture except for the color. Daiso is a 150-yen product, so if you compare it at 100-yen, ceria is a good choice.
Nitori is easy to take off
Nitori, which uses EVA resin for its boots, is slightly thicker and does not slip as mentioned above. The width of the shoes and the opening is wide and it is easy to put on and take off, so it is smooth even when you just want to turn on the hot water switch.On the other hand, it is a little too wide for general women, and it is easy to take off the heel when walking, which is a scratch on the ball. But for 200 yen, you might be satisfied with this.
Aeon is comfortable!
This time, Aeon was the most disappointing in a good way. The boot part, which uses EVA resin and polyethylene, has elasticity close to that of rubber, and it is hard to slip inside and outside, and I was able to move as I wanted.In addition, I asked a man who usually wears 26 cm shoes to wear it, but Aeon is comfortable to wear, but the front is a little tight. For reference, the household where the father is in charge of cleaning the bath. In addition, since the boots are generally wide, it was common for water droplets to enter the boots when showered vigorously.
Bonus: Ceria storage hook
By the way, I also found a storage item for bath boots in Ceria. A hook type that can be hooked on a towel bar, etc., so that one pair can be hooked together. Light boots are easy to remove, but if you want to drain the water and dry it, please do.Even if you don't want to spend too much money because it is a consumable item, bath boots have been found to greatly improve your comfort level if you raise your budget a little. Even when choosing at another store, you may be good at shopping if you carefully observe the materials and shapes.
