C-Skins Wired 5mm Adult GBS Hidden Split Toe Boots

FAQ

What water temperatures are the C-Skins Wired 5mm Adult GBS Hidden Split Toe Boots suitable for?

The C-Skins Wired 5mm boots are designed with 5 mm neoprene and GBS seams for cool to cold water, making them ideal for spring, autumn, and the European winter.

What does GBS mean in these neoprene boots?

GBS stands for Glued and Blind Stitched: The neoprene panels are first glued together and then blind-stitched, so that the needle does not pierce completely through the material. This significantly reduces water penetration.

What advantages does the Hidden Split Toe offer in the C-Skins Wired boots?

The hidden split toe provides better grip on the board without sacrificing the comfort of a closed boot – ideal for surfing, kiting, SUP, and windsurfing.

In which sizes are the C-Skins Wired 5mm Split Toe boots available?

The boots are available in several sizes from UK 8 to UK 12, so you can choose the right size for your foot.

Do the C-Skins Wired boots run small or large?

The Wired models are cut slightly narrower than, for example, the C-Skins Excel boots. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to go for the larger size to avoid cold feet due to a fit that is too tight.

How do you properly care for C-Skins neoprene boots?

Rinse the boots with clear fresh water after every session, let them dry in the shade, and avoid direct sunlight and heat so that the neoprene and GBS seams remain elastic for a long time.

What sports can I use the C-Skins Wired 5mm boots for?

The boots are highly versatile: surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, wing foiling, wave riding, and stand-up paddling – wherever warm feet and grip on the board are required.
