Questions and answers
- Which is better for walking all day?
- The Highmel. Laces, a padded collar and a heel strap hold the foot in place, and the flat cushioned sole is built for everyday wear. The Disquette is a backless slip-on and shifts around on longer walks.
- Which is warmer?
- The Disquette. Its lining is full sheepskin, while the Highmel uses a 10mm UGGplush wool and TENCEL blend. The Disquette is the better pick for cold weather.
- Is the Highmel worth about $35 more?
- Only if you need a secure lace-up for daily walking. If you want warmth and a platform look for short trips, the Disquette at $124.95 at Nordstrom does that for less.
- Can I wear the Disquette outside?
- Yes. UGG lists it for indoor and outdoor wear, and the upper is water-resistant with a traction outsole. The open back still makes it a poor choice for long distances or wet, slippery ground.
- Which lasts longer?
- Expect the Highmel to hold up better for daily wear. Its laces and sturdier upper take more use, while sheepskin lining in the Disquette compresses and mats over time.
- Do both run in women's sizes?
- Yes, both are women's shoes. The Highmel listing shows a women's size 5 and the Disquette a women's size 6, so check the size chart before ordering.
