Review on πŸ₯½ Mares warm water 2mm neoprene boots with non-slip rubber sole by Billy Braggs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pretty good but buy a size down

I used them on a 6 day snorkeling trip in Sipadan, Malaysia. I have the new Mares Volo Power dive fins - black (regular size 9-11). The water temperature in July 2018 was between 26.7 Β°C and 28.9 Β°C. I usually wear a US size 9 but after reading the reviews I bought a size smaller than US 8 and it fits just right! Benefits Lightweight (316g per pair). Easy to put on and take off. Fits my fins perfectly, no gaps, no compression. Easy to wash and dry (they can easily be turned inside out). Walking on the fine sand, some came in, but very few. The heels are rubberized to keep the straps in place. Easy to remove water from inside, no need to take them off. Cozy. After 16 dives of 50 minutes there are no wounds. Cons: Doesn't dry as fast as I'd like, but the place was damp so I wasn't expecting much. They turn out one size bigger. Other Cons The soles are quite thin, which can be a problem when walking on rocks.
