Warmest Booties??

[glidewaves]

I have a fairly new pair of winter booties and noticed my feet we’re getting cold pretty quickly this weekend. Anyone have any advice on best brands, technology etc?

Xcel Drylock 7mm have been good for me. I've heard good things about Patagonia, too.

Xcel Drylock 7mm. Surprising that they work from ~50 down to the 30s (with boot socks on when it gets that cold)

Xcel 7MM is what I use. Thin wool socks when super cold.

This isn't about warmth, but I like the stiffer sole on Hyperflex boots. I am far less likely to get the dreaded toe roll on those. I'm currently wearing 7mm Billabong Furnace Ultras. Very warm, though I got a toe roll on my very first wave with them and have never forgotten it.

For the toe roll I got some of the Solite booties. I have to re heat mold them as they shrunk over the summer. Also- I haven’t lost the little socks that come with them. Pretty proud of myself for that!

Top marks for grip, durability and warmth. However, they are bulkier than my Xcels drylocks.

I hate my Patagonias. Too short, not warm enough, take forever to dry. They sit in a corner unloved and I just use my cheapie 5mm Ripcurls, far warmer.

I'm a fan of solite's 5mm are good for Oregon conditions.

That's what the Seaside shark victim was wearing..... Not saying they look like shark edibles, but maybe
