Xcel Men’s Drylock Split Toe 3mm Wetsuit Boot - Black

The Xcel Men’s Drylock Split Toe 3mm Wetsuit Boot is built for surfers who need warmth, grip and serious foot protection through cooler surf conditions. Designed as a premium 3mm surf boot, it gives you extra insulation underfoot while helping maintain the board feel and control surfers need in the water.

The 3mm thickness makes this boot a strong option for cool-water surf, colder mornings, reef breaks, rocky entries and winter sessions where bare feet are no longer cutting it. The split-toe design helps improve grip, balance and connection through turns, giving the boot a more natural feel than a standard round-toe boot.

The Drylock range is best positioned as a higher-performance Xcel boot option for surfers who want a warmer, more secure and more protective bootie without losing too much feel underfoot. It is a smart choice for Victorian surf, southern Australian winter conditions and rough coastal entries where warmth and protection matter.
