XCEL 2024 Drylock 5mm Wetsuit Boot Split toe

Thickness: 5mm
Neoprene: Xcel's new Channel Flex neoprene is a hydrophobic gridded material – lovely and soft, super light, and very stretchy.
Lining: Celliant Black, which features the textile Celliant – a brand in its own right, certified as a medical device by the US Food and Drug Administration. Using infrared technology, it warms your cockles/feet by increasing bloodflow.
Velcro Strap: Stops your boots ballooning with water and maintains a snug fit, but the ergonomic design means you don't have to strap it up painfully tight for it to be effective.
Sole: Single rubber bottom – durable and yet thin enough to retain sensitive board feel
Seams: Sealed externally with Taitex, and internally with tape.
Extra Tech: Drylock ankle seal with tapered cuff; 3D foot mould means you get a contoured fit; ankle loop makes them easy to pull on.
Eco Credentials: Solvent-free glues, limestone neoprene (still not eco-friendly, but friendlier than petrochemicals), dope-dyed yarns (reduced energy and water consumption), and scrap tyres pyrolyzed into Carbon Black (one of the ingredients in neoprene).
Rough Temperature Guide: 7-13 °C
