Solite Custom Pro 5mm Boots – Gum/Black

Solite Custom Pro 5mm Boots

Black/Gum Theme

Recommended Water Temps: 40-50F

Sizing Tip: Order your regular shoe size or 1/2 size down. For example, if you are a size 10.5, order a 10. Women should order 1-1.5 sizes lower to convert from Men’s sizing. So if you are a Women’s 8, order a Men’s 7. If you are a Women’s 8.5, also order a Men’s 7. NOTE: If your feet are exceptionally narrow or low volume, you may want to size down even more.

Better than Barefoot – Heat molded custom fit comfort

Our Custom Pro Series has no equal in the world of aquatic footwear. Every material and design detail has been painstakingly researched, tested, refined, and perfected to yield a boot so good you’ll forget you are wearing it. 

The Custom Pro is anchored by our patented Full Wrap arch strap, which locks your foot into the boot to insure zero delay between foot movement and board response. Combined with the precision fit of our custom heat-molding process, the Custom Pro provides barefoot feel and response for every possible foot shape: high or low arch, narrow or wide width, high or low volume.

Updates to the 2020 Custom Pro include:

• Wider opening and removed internal tape at the O-Ring cuff improves stretch to make the boot easier to get on/off while still resisting water entry.
• 3D Hollow Fiber neoprene lining material improves air flow for increased warmth.

Key Features:

• Heat-mold-able for the perfect custom fit.
• Patented seamless Thermo-Form sole for next-level comfort, warmth, dexterity, and durability.
• Internal split-toe locks your foot inside the boot for precise response.
• Super-tacky and flexible 1mm vulcanized rubber sole pods for barefoot board feel, grip, and abrasion resistance.
• 6mm neoprene upper with quad-sealed seams: GBS (Glue/Blind-Stitch), IST (Internal Stretch Tape), External LSS (Liquid Seam Seal).
• Patented full-wrap ankle strap co-molded into the sole improves durability.
• Tatex-coated hook strap improves durability and holding power.
• Tatex heel spine and laminated heel-pull for durability and easy on.
• New Hollow Fiber 3D quick-dry lining increases airflow for greater warmth.
• Double-lined 4mm O-ring cuff seal provides a durable, seamless barrier against flushing with lower bulk.
• Includes a pair of knit Solite Heat Booster socks for added warmth, comfort, and easy on/off.

HEAT MOLDING INSTRUCTIONS

Solite Boots are the world’s first and only custom, heat-mold-able water sports footwear. Custom fitting can be done in your kitchen with nothing more than a kettle of boiling water. To heat-mold your Solite boots, watch the video below and follow the instructions carefully. Do not use any other methods of heat molding except boiling water. Use of ovens, microwaves, heat guns, etc. will void your warranty.

 

If you have Average/Wide Feet:

You should purchase your sneaker size or 1/2 size smaller. Solite Boots should fit tight out of the box, but the heat molding process will stretch them to the perfect size. If your boots feel too big out of the box in any dimension (length/width/arch), then we suggest you try a size down. Even if they feel tight out of the box, heat molding will expand the boots to a snug but comfortable fit.

NOTE: If you plan to use the 1mm Heat Booster Socks inside your boots, you may not have to size down. In fact, if you have wide feet you may even want to size up 1/2 size if you plan to use the 1mm Heat Booster Socks. For example, if you are a wide size 10.5 and plan to use the 1mm Heat Booster Socks, a size 11 may be a better fit. This is particularly applicable to the 6mm boots, which won’t stretch in heat-molding as much as 3mm boots.

If you have Narrow/Low-Volume Feet:

You can size down 1 to even 2 sizes from your sneaker size! By heat-molding, the boot will stretch to fit your length, and narrow/reduce volume to hug your narrower foot. Once again, the 3mm Boots will stretch more easily in heat-molding than the 6mm boots, so keep this in mind when choosing.
