500 3 mm Neoprene Surf Boots - Black

When we are in the water, we lose more than half of our body heat through our extremities (feet, hands, head). Consequently, here are the recommended accessories:- In water (>17°C) => Low neoprene shoes.- In water (12 - 17°C): High booties (boots) and gloves.- In water (7 - 12°C): High booties (boots), gloves, hood and hooded top.

The first selection criterion when choosing a surf bootie is water temperature. Water temperature varies according to the location and the time of the year. Systematically make sure that the water temperature at your spot corresponds to the recommended temperature range:Water warmer than 21°C.Water between 17 and 22°C. Water between 12 and 17°C. Water between 7 and 12°C. Visit the site seatemperature.org to find out the temperature of your spot.

Surfing shoes and booties should be a very tight fit to ensure the best possible thermal efficiency. It is perfectly normal for it to feel like they are too tight when tried on dry. Choosing well-fitting shoes and booties ensures a better fit and prevents them swelling with water in use.

The 3 mm surf booties are made of neoprene to ensure better thermal comfort. The neoprene is lined with synthetic fabric for increased resistance to wear.Neoprene thickness: 3 mm. The neoprene is made from an elastomer foam with insulating properties.We test and guarantee the thermal quality of our neoprene materials.

The seams are stitched and glued for optimal waterproofing.The seams are "blind-stitched". the thread does not go all the way through the neoprene, preventing water from getting through. The absence of threads on the inside avoids irritation and chafing.Patches for comfort and reinforcement are strategically placed on the inside in sensitive areas.

Our surf booties are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding surfers. Our design choices also make them compatible with other water sports such as kitesurfing, windsurfing, sea wading or SUP (stand up paddle boarding).

Our wetsuit models are also classified by water temperature range: Our wetsuits are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding surfers.
