Sailing Boots

A sharp selection of boat boots

Technical and comfortable, sailing bootsor rubber boots offer multiple uses. Essential partners of sailors, they ensure a stable footing on deck while protecting the skin from cold or moisture. Choosing the right sailing boots is the guarantee to find maximum pleasure in sailing. Small overview of the main models of waterproof boots andbooties.


Rubber or neoprene boots: which to choose?

Both have their followers. Rubber, a perfectly waterproof material, is immediately found in the composition of products intended for use at sea or in wet environments like sailing or fishing. Its flexibility gives it a major advantage for sports activities, while perfectly insulating the foot from water infiltration. The soles of sailing boots use rubber to provide the sailor with a non-slip surface that does not leave marks on surfaces. It is also a product suitable for more recreational use, with excellent durability. On the other hand, the rubber limits the evacuation of perspiration and can be uncomfortable if worn for a long time. Therefore, we recommend our waterproof-breathable Offshore boot for your regattas and offshore trips. The latter, composed of a waterproof layer and a double breathable membrane, will meet the most extreme conditions. During your practice of liveaboard sailing in particular, our boots can be worn with a sailing jacket and a waterproof salopette.


Neoprene, structurally close to rubber, is in fact a synthetic material developed for the thermal resistance it provides. It is found, for example, in the composition of diving suits. Without guaranteeing a perfect waterproofness, neoprene brings a great comfort by maintaining the heat of the body. This is an essential point for dinghy and catamaran racing enthusiasts. Heat loss occurs primarily in the extremities such as the hands and feet. Neoprene is found more in products specific to the practice of light sailing and is well suited to regular users.


Neoprene booties, a safe value for light sailing

If you are looking for a shoe suitable for light leisure or competition sailing, which is comfortable and non-slip, neoprene sailing booties will give you full satisfaction. Particularly flexible to ensure ample movement, they maintain the foot thanks to a high upper. Neoprene ensures optimized water evacuation and helps maintain an ideal temperature, even in situations of exposure to cold water.In case of bad weather and spray, the bootie becomes indispensable with its zip, it can be put on and taken off quickly.

In order to complete your equipment, find our ranges of jackets and neoprene wetsuits adapted to the practice of dinghy and catamaran.


Sailing Boots for Cruising

Just as buying sailing gloves or boots is essential, choosing a good pair of boat bootsgoes without saying before going out to sea. While getting on or off the boat whether it is a dinghy, canoe or kayak, the risk of injuring yourself on pebbles, shells or garbage proscribes bare feet. The lightness of the boot is important in order to remain free in the movements and not to encumber the foot. If you are a sailing instructor, the neoprene boot is a product perfectly adapted to your need to get on and off the boat regularly. The boot helps evacuate water and insulates the skin from the cold. Thanks to a thin sole, the sailor keeps his or her footing while maintaining a firm grip even when water floods the surface of the boat.Whether you're a loyal sailing enthusiast or an occasional maritime outing enthusiast, you'll appreciate the quality of a product thought out in real-world conditions, such as theTribord rubber boots, designed and tested for recreational or competitive water sports.


How to care for your sea boots

The rubber boat boots prove very easy to care for. Water repellent and durable, the material only requires regular washing with soapy water to remove impurities. The durability of the boots is improved by occasionally using a spoonful of glycerine mixed with half a liter of water. The fat fills in potential micro-tears in the lining and increases its impermeability. After each outing, leave the boots to dry upside down to properly evacuate the water they retain. You can also remove the insoles to help them dry more quickly. A good rinse is still essential if you are sailing in salt water, so that the sodium does not attack the coating prematurely. Then keep the shoes out of the sun, in a ventilated area and if possible on a mount to keep the rubber shape.


With regard to neoprene products such as booties for sailing, a thorough washing is recommended to avoid odors and bacterial growth. Cleaning can be done in a shower or bathtub, using the jet and detergent for hand washing. Be sure to wash the garment on the right side and the back. Decathlon also offers disinfectant solutions that take care of wetsuits and other neoprene accessories. After rinsing, drying is done in the shade in a ventilated area, as the sun damages the characteristics of the material.


Well dressed for water sports

Adapting your clothes to the weather and the type of practice is the adage to feel good in your sport. Water activities are no exception, and require some thought as to the clothing and accessories used. The rubber boots are combined with a very specific equipment paraphernalia to avoid cold and humidity, sources of deep discomfort.


The sailing suit protects the entire body -except for the extremities- and even has a windproof effect if it contains 'fine mesh' inserts. Boaters use it for outings as well as for cleaning and maintaining the boat. In hot weather, it can be replaced by a shorty, which protects the buttocks and thighs from friction. In very cold weather, the dry suit is a serious investment but more adequate to avoid hypothermia.


Underlays improve thermal comfort, while allowing the skin to breathe. They are used according to the outside temperature and the wind, which increases the feeling of cold on wet skin, but also according to personal preference. In case of sunshine, any far-sighted sailor should bring a cap and visor, sunglasses and sun protection to ward off the inconvenience of the reflection of rays on the water. From choosing boots to technical clothing, practicing a water sport encompasses many useful precautions. By opting for the right equipment, you'll combine safety with the pleasure of comfortable sailing.
