What are wetsuit boots used for?
Wetsuit boots are used for most water sports activities. There are subtle differences depending on what sport you are doing. Dinghy sailors might want a thick sole for protection when pushing a sailing boat up the beach and zip for ease of getting into them; a surfer may want a thin sole to get the most feel from the board. With the right pair of wetsuit boots, you can stay comfortable and safe while enjoying all your favourite water sports activities.
Do wetsuit boots keep your feet warm?
A wetsuit boot will keep you warm by insulating your feet from cold water. The rubber will keep your feet warm if you can keep your feet dry inside the boot. In most situations, water will flush into the boot through seams or the ankle cuff, and if it does, it is important to have a tight-fitting suit so you only have to warm up a thin layer of water.
Do you wear socks under wetsuit boots?
If you have a top-end wetsuit boot with a thermal lining, you will take away the benefit of wearing the thermal lining. If you have a cheap neoprene wetsuit bootie and want to add warmth to the boot, using a wetsuit or neoprene sock will give you extra thickness and warmer feet. Do not use cotton or wool socks, as these will ruck up and be uncomfortable.
Do wetsuit boots go over or under wetsuit?
Most people will wear the wetsuit tight against their skin and the wetsuit over the top. If you are a windsurfer or kitesurfer, where you are moving quickly over the water, this will allow water to blast up the leg between the suit and the boots. If you wear the boot over top of your suit, any warm water trapped in the suit will seep into your wetsuit boots, but if you have dry seamed boots, your boots will balloon out, and you will slide about in the boot, so the answer depends on what style of water sport you're doing and your preference.
How thick do my wetsuit boots need to be?
In the United Kingdom, you can usually use a reef shoe or a summer boot between 1.5m and 3mm in the summer. In the Autumn, thicker 3mm to 5mm wetsuit booties are ideal. Most water sports users will use a 5mm to 7mm winter steamer boot in winter and spring.
What is the proper fit for a wetsuit boot?
A wetsuit boot should be tight, like a second skin. If the boot is big, you will be cold as the voids will fill up with water, and you will slide about in the wetsuit boots. They need to be a tight fit, trapping a thin layer of water and comfortable fit.
For the winter, we also recommend choosing a good winter wetsuit that will also help you stay warm and safe.
