FAQ
How warm are they?
Designed for cold-water use. The 5mm neoprene and Storm Dry lining give real warmth, though actual comfort depends on water/air temperature and activity level.
Do they work for SUP and windsurfing?
Yes. The thin sole and secure strap system make them suitable for both standing and strap-mounted board systems.
Why the round toe instead of split toe?
The round-toe design prioritises warmth and comfort over ultra-fine toe control - ideal for SUP where warmth matters most or if you just prefer a non split toe.
Are they easy to get on?
Yes. The pull-on tab and flexible neoprene make entry and egress straightforward, even when cold.
