DBS Boots | Ultra grippy sole & all day warmth
Combine the sole of your favourite rugged, hyper grippy outdoor approach shoe and the warming comfort of the thickest neoprene booties you own, and you’ll come somewhere close to the performance that our brand new DBS Boots offer.
The long awaited DBS (Dry Boot System) Boots are designed to work in harmony with our legwear and One Piece Suits, the 30cm high ankle section slots neatly under the outer ankle seal on our legwear - in turn creating an ankle sandwich system if you will.
The DBSs are constructed in 5mm neoprene with glued, blind stitched and fully taped seams, and are bonded onto an ultra grippy sole with a cushioned EVA midsole. Once integrated with our legwear outer ankle seal, they create the ultimate comfy and warm footwear solution. Water finds it difficult to enter to the boots due to the tunnel ankle system created with the inner waterproof sock, boot and outer ankle seal - however if water does find its way in, simply empty and continue to enjoy the comfort of neoprene warmth and unrivalled grip.
The sole offers both front and rear ridged sections for solid purchase when required, whilst the medial and lateral forefoot sections have defined stubs for consistent grip in loose environments. The EVA mid sold cushion provides a comfortable feel whilst worn, without loosing overall feeling of foot placements or relative ground conditions. The handy Velcro ankle strap is a great addition for improving ankle support, as the 30mm webbing strap is looped around the complete boot, delivering a simple, secure and robust fit.
We’ve trusted these boots in many different locations, trips and adventures. They’ve looked after us during whitewater safety & rescue courses in North Wales, they been a great companion on multi-day sea kayaking trips and they’ve withstood the unpleasant conditions we find ourselves on river cleans. We can attestt first hand the continued warmth and comfort provided from the DBS Boots, is like nothing we’ve ever experienced.
