Boots and latex socks

[marcosdutra]

My drysuit boots is very tight (Harveys neoprene drysuit) and is very uncomfortable when i'm diving. I'm thinking about changing the boots for latex socks and use my 7mm neoprene boots on top, or rock boots.

So i don't have a lot of experience on this, and i need somebody opinion.

And I'm also thinking about changing the socks by myself, but I don't have any experience. If you have some experience in DIY please share some ideas.


Thanks!

I have a TUSA drysuit with integrated hard sole boots...I also have a Whites Catalyst 360 with soft boots which I use Hollis Overboots with....

I much prefer the integrated hard sole boots.....I find it more comfortable (the soft socks can "bunch up").....you can carefully add some air to feet while diving for more warmth, less stuff to dive with and finally when it is really cold topside, the laces freeze so removing the boots can be a real hassle....

The overboots do give you more of a shoe feel topside, which can be nice if you have long or rocky water entries......

Can you get the proper sized hard sole boots put on your drysuit?

I know that is route I would consider.....

Just remember to check if your fins will still fit the larger boots....

Back to you OP many folks have written that they use Neoprene Wet Boots with their drysuits.....

Hope this helps....M
