Review Summary

Fit was great, better than my old booties. And they say "Thug" on them, which is nice. LOL Only issue is the velcro tabs were poorly sewn on, but that was an easy fix with a needle & thread. Overall, would buy again & recommend.

I wear 2mm neoprene socks, warmer than using drysuit boots

These are awesome! They are very well made and warm! I wear mine with 3mm socks and my feet stay toasty in 42 degree water. I water hunt in rocky areas with my metal detector and these do great in the rocky environment! I have gone through many dive boots and these are the best I've ever had!

Sturdy and well built. I haven't really had the chance to dive with this boots which is why I have it a 4 star rating

Great dive boots. As soon as I got them and tried them on I knew I had to order a second pair for my son. Yes they're that comfortable. Also true to size.

Very well-made and comfortable boot. I ultimately had to return mine after wearing them for a short time because my feet are size 14 and the largest size they make in these is a 13. Unfortunately for me they do run true to size so if you are a 13 in men’s US then a 13 should fit you perfectly. As a result my feet would cramp but I absolutely would have gotten a 14 if they were manufactured in that size. It is a shame as I was looking forward to Coldwater diving with these. Very warm boots. Leisure pro refunded my money no questions asked and they have always had excellent customer service with me.

I really like this boot. The sole rigidity is nice. The fit is good. The quality is exceptional. I have a split layer ankle cuff on my wetsuit. I put one layer under the boot and one layer over the boot. It works really well. My only concern is the potential for chafe on the zipper. But the zipper is big and strong and will not break.

This boot is super durable and well made. They just became the best boot I have ever owned! Seriously, they are warm, comfortable, and the zipper is super sturdy. Compared to Xcel 6.5mm and two sets of Aqualung I own, they are superior. Thanks!

Perfect for shore diving. Have used these in both tropical and cold diving situations. Worked great for difficult shore entrances in Bonaire, and hard to navigate entrances in lakes, rivers, and quarries. Sturdy and well made. Have put up with a lot of abuse.

The boot has no plush interior, the velcro that holds the zipper in place when zipped up ,is coming off, bad stitching, very poor craftsmanship. I will have to find a better made boot that has a comfy inside. I wore them two days!

Was worried that the boot tread might be too aggresive for my fins (i.e. too thick). But worked just fine in my current Jetfins and twin Jets. They are just a little bigger, but didn't change the fit for me in these fins. Probably the best built boots I've used in many years.

I was looking for some warmer boots. These fit the bill perfectly! I added some lava core socks and i can't even feel any cold in my feet anymore! I'll definitely buy these again.
