Fit & Comfort

The TruFit design reduces excess volume over the instep and uses an asymmetrical toe box shaped more closely to the natural outline of the foot. Reducing unused space helps minimize excess water inside the boot while creating a more precise fit.

Built-in arch support helps maintain a natural foot position, while the heel cup supports the heel's natural padding for additional shock absorption during walking. The rocker-shaped sole promotes a smoother, more natural step to help reduce fatigue and improve balance on land.

Warmth & Water Control

The 5 mm construction is lined with ThermoFlare material to enhance heat retention and support faster drying. An internal double smooth-skin flap behind the zipper helps reduce water entry, while the lower-volume fit limits unnecessary water space inside the boot.

They measure approximately 8 inches / 20.3 cm high for additional coverage, warmth, and protection.

Do they have arch support?

Expert Insight

The defining feature of the TruFit design is its reduced internal volume. By removing unnecessary space over the instep and around the toes, the boot can retain less excess water while providing a more precise fit inside compatible fins. Combined with the ThermoFlare lining, anatomical foot support, rocker sole, and protective vulcanized outsole, these boots are designed to balance warmth, in-water performance, and comfort while walking around the dive site.
