Prolimit Surf Shoes Unisex Raider 3MM GBS Black

Prolimit Surf Shoes Unisex Raider 3MM GBS are made for those who want to stay warm in spring and fall without losing the instant board feel of a summer boot. The 3mm neoprene shaft warms up quickly and fits snugly around foot and ankle; the rounded toe allows your toes to move freely so that balance and feedback are maintained during water starts, jibs and beach starts. Glued, blind-stitched (GBS) seams limit water flowing in and out and feel smooth on the skin. The low collar slides neatly under the wetsuit leg for a draft-free fit, while the soft interior dries quickly between sessions. The outsole is thin and flexible enough to accurately feel pressure on rails, footpads and strapping positions, yet offers reliable grip on wet deck, jetties and slippery pebbles. Reinforced zones on heel and instep increase durability if you frequently walk on parking lots or rough slipways.

On Dutch lakes, ponds and along the coast, you'll especially notice the Raider 3MM's quiet, natural feel in varying conditions. In ripples and short chop, the shoe keeps your ankle free to roll, allowing you to "read" the foil or board without lag; on turn-on, the sole provides just enough stiffness to transfer power without cramping your foot. The fit is unisex and covers a wide size range: choose it tight for maximum board feel in the spring, or just a little roomier if you want to wear a thin sock occasionally. Donning is quick thanks to the smooth opening; once on, the shoe remains stable without twisting around the foot. After the session, rinse off salt and sand, pat out the water and hang them on a loop to dry-the materials remain form-fitting and elastic, even after frequent use. So you get a down-to-earth, durable surf boot that strikes just the right balance between insulation, grip and feel.
