XCEL DRYLOCK BOOTS

• Neoprene thickness: 3 mm
• Split Toe

The most popular and the highest quality surfing boots from XCEL. They are equipped with the new XCEL’s lining technology Celliant Black. Special fibres are very soft for increased comfort and keep warmth inside.

The Drylock boots feature even more unique elements, such as ergonomically angled Velcro strips and seamless Drylock ankle seals to ensure maximum comfortable fit. The thin but very durable sole allows for excellent board feel and the uniform surface under the spit-toe prevents irritating leash tangling. The Drylock boots are made of 100% UltraStretch neoprene with glued & blindstitched seam construction sealed with inner Thermo Dry Seam tape and outer Taitex for better thermal protection. Even the pull loop at the ankle is Pressure Bonded to the shoe so no seam goes through the neoprene and thereby limiting the potential amount of water that may get inside.

Features

UltraStretch Neoprene

Comfortable, lightweight neoprene with softer foam and a tighter weave textile for less water absorption, better durability, and maximum stretch.

All New Celliant Black

Very soft, quick drying and the warmest inner lining ever made by XCEL. Available only in Drylock series. Best comfort, best isolation, best performance.

Quick Dry Lining

Fast drying, lightweight, and naturally hydrophobic, this premium inner lining has an accelerated drying time to improve warmth and overall performance; Quick Dry Lining is also made from recycled polyester fibers for an earth-friendlier final product.

Glued & Blindstitched Seams

A fully sealed, maximum stretch seam construction. Neoprene panels are glued and pressed together, then blindstitched (needle doesn't fully penetrate neoprene, keeping more water out).

Split Toe, Solid Sole

Flexible, high performance boot design for enhanced range of motion. The solid sole underneath the split toe means no more of those annoying leash hangups.

Pressure Bonded Back Ankle Pull Loop

The most durable construction for keeping the pull loop attached to the boot. Pressure bonding also means a more watertight construction, since it requires no stitching that would otherwise penetrate the neoprene and let water in.

Taitex

Durable, flexible outer composite used to seal a glued & blindstitched seam to maximize durability and keep more water out.

Drylock Ankle Seals

An Xcel exclusive, this seamless, engineered "donut seal" construction keeps more water out, minimizes flushing, and forms a snug, comfortable seal and a better fit with your wetsuit.
