Neoprene Socks

About

Whether you are scuba diving, spearfishing, or snorkeling, wetsuit socks will be a great addition to your equipment set. Although they are not as protective as neoprene boots, dive socks will still help keep your feet warm and provide additional comfort in the water without decreasing the mobility of your feet. Generally, dive socks are worn when using swim fins or full foot fins , as they alleviate the rubbing against your feet and protect you from blisters. However, many divers wear socks underneath wetsuit booties as well. Even the boots that fit well may leave raw spots on the diver's ankles if used frequently. Wearing socks with your dive booties can prevent this problem and make diving more comfortable. What’s more, the socks will also provide an extra layer of thermal protection. Some dive socks come with a rubberized textured sole, multi-panel construction, antimicrobial treatment that reduces odors, inner lining, etc. Material Neoprene is the material used for the majority of dive wear. Neoprene socks create a comfortable seal around your ankle and enhance heat insulation. They also provide better protection when walking on the sand or on small stones. Like boots, neoprene socks come in different thicknesses, usually from 1mm to 5mm. The most popular and practical choice for divers who simply want a thin protective layer between their feet and fins is 3mm wetsuit socks. Overall, dive socks are an effective and usually inexpensive way to shield your feet against scrapes and stings, as well as provide some thermal protection.
