A highly durable textured rubber sole grips wet rock, shingle and slipways, and a reinforced toe box takes the knocks that come with a rocky entry. Once you are in, 4mm neoprene and a sealed ankle keep the cold out for the length of the swim. Unisex, UK 4 to 12.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHO IT'S FOR\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou swim from a beach rather than a pool edge, and the worst part of the swim happens before it starts. Rock, shingle and slipway are hard on bare feet, and standing about on them in the cold is what shortens a session. Boots fix the entry and the exit, which is where a lot of the cold actually gets you. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold-water swimming from rocky, shingle or slipway entries \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurfing, paddleboarding and board sports \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSea swimming through the winter \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong walks in and out where bare feet are the limiting factor \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHERE IT SITS IN THE RANGE\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the most protective footwear Zone3 makes, with a rubber sole and a reinforced toe box built for ground you have to walk over. The Heat-Tech Swim Socks give thermal-lined warmth without the sole, so take those if you are getting in from sand or a pontoon. The Active-Flex Swim Sock is the lighter and more flexible option again. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKEY BENEFITS\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1. You can walk in over anything. \u003c\/strong\u003eA highly durable textured rubber sole grips wet rock, shingle, slipways and the deck of a board, so the ground stops deciding how you get in. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Your toes survive the entry. \u003c\/strong\u003eA reinforced toe box takes the knocks that come with rocky entries and handling boards, which is where swim footwear usually gives out first. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Your feet stay warm once you are swimming. \u003c\/strong\u003e4mm neoprene holds warmth without stiffening the foot, supporting natural flex through the ankle during swimming, paddling and surf launches. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4. Cold water is not flushing in at the ankle. \u003c\/strong\u003eA gasket works with the hook-and-loop strap to seal the opening, which is what separates a warm boot from one that only covers the foot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5. They come off at the end without a fight. \u003c\/strong\u003eA heel pull loop gives you something to pull on, and the boot compresses more easily than a stiffer surf boot, so it moves with the foot rather than resisting it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHAT YOU'LL FEEL\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first difference is that you stop looking down. You walk in at the pace you would walk anywhere, over ground you would normally pick your way across. In the water your feet are warm without feeling wrapped up, and your ankles still bend, so your kick is your kick. Coming out is the part you notice on a cold day, standing on shingle in no particular hurry to reach your shoes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-template--25852196487549__zone3_text_cMzMjh\" class=\"shopify-section zone3__section-title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"zone3__section-text\" id=\"zone3-section-text-template--25852196487549__zone3_text_cMzMjh\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"zone3__section-text__inner px-4 md:px-8 grid grid-cols-6 md:grid-cols-12 gap-8 w-full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spacing-style text-block text-block--AdGlxc2M2K1BVL3UyZ__text_4BKn3F custom\n    text-block--align-left text-block--full-width  custom-typography  custom-font-size  custom-color\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-template--25852196487549__zone3_text_J9fTnx\" class=\"shopify-section zone3__section-title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"zone3__section-text\" id=\"zone3-section-text-template--25852196487549__zone3_text_J9fTnx\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"zone3__section-text__inner px-4 md:px-8 grid grid-cols-6 md:grid-cols-12 gap-8 w-full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spacing-style text-block text-block--AUHpEMFdINW9zZHpYV__text_DqGhKT custom\n    text-block--align-left text-block--full-width  custom-typography  custom-font-size  custom-color\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"metafield-rich_text_field\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGRIP AND PROTECTION\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTextured rubber sole: \u003c\/strong\u003ehighly durable tread for traction on wet rock, shingle, slipways and paddle boards. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced toe box: \u003c\/strong\u003eadded protection and stability on rocky entries and when handling boards. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARMTH\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4mm neoprene construction: \u003c\/strong\u003einsulation with enough flex left for swimming, paddling and board sports. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure ankle seal: \u003c\/strong\u003ea gasket works with the hook-and-loop strap to seal against cold-water flush. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFIT AND CONSTRUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible, compressible design: \u003c\/strong\u003ecompresses more easily than a stiffer surf boot, so it works as a swimming boot as well as one for surf and paddle sports. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeel pull loop: \u003c\/strong\u003esomething to pull on for entry and exit in cold conditions. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnisex sizing: \u003c\/strong\u003eUK 4 to 12. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Zone3","offers":[{"title":"4\/38\/4.5","offer_id":58854955483467,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK4","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5\/39\/5.5","offer_id":58854955516235,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK5","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\/40\/6.5","offer_id":58854955549003,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK6","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"7\/41\/7.5","offer_id":58854955581771,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK7","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8\/42\/8.5","offer_id":58854955614539,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK8","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"9\/43\/9.5","offer_id":58854955647307,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK9","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10\/44\/10\/5","offer_id":58854955680075,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK10","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"11\/45\/11.5","offer_id":58854955712843,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK11","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\/46\/12.5","offer_id":58854955745611,"sku":"Z3_NA26UHTDS101\/UK12","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/8041\/8891\/files\/heat-tech-dura-swim-boot-neoprene-water-shoes-adult-swimming-socks-surfing-gear.webp?v=1792492079","url":"https:\/\/youboatmarine.com\/products\/heat-tech-dura-swim-boot","provider":"YouBoat Marine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
