I placed the order and very soon after that I received the boots. The size was a concern for me as different blogs recommended you buy a boot one size bigger than your normal size. I have a size 13 sneaker and i bough the boot in size 13. it fit great, allowing room for a couple socks ( woolen). The fit into my fins ins tight, so I am looking to buy a size XXL fin ( shoe size 14).
TUSA Solla Fins or Cressi Pro Light Fins , there may be other fins that fit the boots as weel
Can not find a better dry suit boot

Bought this particular dry suit boot for its simplicity. I wanted a boot that was going to be a workhorse everyday. The Hollis Dry Suit Over-Boot is just what I was looking for. They are low profile, so no need to get larger size fins. The toe box is roomy, so they fit over the neoprene socks on my dry suit with no problems. They provide good traction on wet decks and docks. They also stay put, no movement when finning. Very good dry suit boot. Recommend highly.
The Hollis Dry Suit Over-Boots are exactly what you need for your rough and rugged entries. Think of them as like mountainous hiking boots that prepare you for the roughest terrain, only these boots are for diving. They feature a tough, super-grip rubberized sole that is capable of traverse sharp and/slippery rock surfaces. Rubberized toes and heels with fin strap catches further guard your feet on the way to the dive site while aiding in fin security on the dive. The boots feature drainage holes on both sides of the boot for easy draining and quick drying. Additionally, padded sides and tongue provide a comfortable fit over your dry suit sock. Over-Boots have a durable canvas upper. Lastly, a laced top allows you to loosen or tighten the boot to your desired comfort level and when laced prevent air from pocketing in your dry suits attached socks. Dry Suit Over-Boots are available in multiple sizes.
This product can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

The Hollis Dry Suit Boot is being phased out and size 11 is not available any longer. May I suggest the Bare Force 1 Boot

I have the Hollis Dx300x drysuit and am looking for some over boots. I wear size 13. Do these run true to size? What size should I order?
Mario C
Thank you Joe!
Dave, though you do not see the other sizes on the website, feel free to give us a call, we can order it over the phone. Most likely it will be a size 14 or 13 depending how tight that sock is on your foot. ( boot is made from size 5 to 15),
Let us know
Dive dive dive!!

They are built to size, but double check the sizing chart on the Hollis.com website for your personal fit. Also, they are built to compensate for undergarments.

I have a Bare NEX-GEN Pro dry suit men's large short. It has 4mm compression resistant soft boots attached. My shoe size is 8.5. What size Hollis boot should I buy?
DIAMOND D
They run on the larger side
YAN G
These boots are designed to fit over the neoprene soft boots and sized bigger to accommodate them.
So, I would start with a 9 with standard insulated boots or a 10 if you are using extra thick insulated boots.

I am looking for a comfortable boot that is easy to put on and take off but for use with a wet suit in tropical waters. Would a dry suit over boot be appropriate?
JOE S
A dry suit boot will not be appropriate. Try a 3mm short booty like the sunset boot. These are made of a canvas material and will be unconfortable.
