Review on πŸ‘£ Cressi Tall Neoprene Boots for Snorkeling, Scuba Diving, Canyoning - Isla: Italian-designed in 5 & 7 mm Neoprene by Mario Bullard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good boots are best for water sports

I bought these specifically for sea-dooing in cold weather. On my first ride in them, the air temp was 37F with a water temp of 40F. As long as I wasn't constantly submerged, the boots kept my feet warm enough that I was able to work non-stop to keep warm. The outsole worked incredibly well as I like to put the car in the back and have a foothold of about 70 degrees, my foot has never slipped out of the footwell on the car. The size was good. The construction seems good but I'm not familiar with scuba gear so I can't give a full 5 stars. One review I read said they were 'fake' based on the Italian name but marked 'Made in China'. I can't verify this, but I've come across fakes on Amazon a few times, so I wasn't surprised. They are fairly cheap although I was surprised at what I got for the money. If they hold up well, if not, then I don't have a lot of money. The delivery was a JOKE. Three weeks is too long even for Shi$. Whatever the "partner pool” is, they need to do better. I won't be ordering another pair in the future just because of the shipping. When I send my money I want to get an answer, after a week and a half they are finally sent. NEVER COOPERATE WITH ANOTHER PERSON'S MONEY. I paid and they dragged their feet too long. The big problem I had with the design was the zippers kept coming down. Real or fake, they need velcro at the top of the zipper.

Pros
  • Integrated fin strap holder
Cons
  • Problems
