Ali Baba's Wee Booties are a primary weapon for the Demoman. They are a pair of steel pointed boots, curved up at the tip, that replace Demoman's standard boots. There is a re-skin of this item the Bootlegger.
These boots provide the player with a +25 health bonus. In addition, they double the player's turning control while charging with either the Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen, allowing the Demoman's charge to be maneuvered more easily.

Bugs

Trivia
- The increased turning control was originally an exploit with the Chargin' Targe; the exploit can be performed using any controller with analog sticks in conjunction with the mouse; both forms of input were accepted and compounded into more significant turning control. Alternatively, a player can simply bind a button to '+left' or '+right' in the console. The patch in which this weapon was added was originally supposed to fix this, but the exploit remains.
- Template:W is a fictional character from the story "Ali Baba & the Forty Thieves", a short story featured in the book Template:W, the latter of which was the inspiration for the Demoman's One Thousand and One Demoknights pack.
- The boots are styled after a particular form of shoe curved at the toe that was popular in the Middle East between the twelfth and nineteenth centuries.
