These Neoprene Nylon Overshoes are the middle member of the dhb overshoe family, providing protection against cold, wet weather. The 3mm neoprene is tough but stretchy, and when on, the fitting is snug and form-fitting. The durable, rear-entry, size 5, lockdown, YKK zip provides access to the shoe cover and makes it easy to slip on and off. Once the foot is in place and the heel adjusted to fit it can be zipped closed and secured with the Velcro top tab. The closed-cell neoprene structure means the material is wind and waterproof. Internally taped seams add strength to the waterproof seal. The underside of the overshoe features a robust Kevlar material, which is abrasion-resistant.
The Extreme Weather Neoprene Overshoes are the most protective of dhb's overshoe collection. The 3.5mm-thick neoprene provides the ultimate in insulation against both the cold and wet. Further protection comes via the TPU skin on the external face. This non-porous and flexible skin prevents rain from being absorbed into the surface of the overshoe. The underside of the overshoes feature a robust Kevlar material, extending around the toe and heel to prevent excessive wear when walking in the overshoes. The holes in the base for the cleats are shaped to fit snugly, minimising the amount of road spray entering the shoe from below. A durable, size 5, lockdown, YKK zip at the rear makes it easy to get them on and off.
Industry Firsts After testing all the other swimming socks on the market, Zone3 found that they nearly all filled with water and easily slipped off the foot when swimming. A design solution was found by increasing the length of the sock so it could be tucked into the wetsuit to ensure no exposed skin and adding a Touch closure strap around the top to keep the sock in place to reduce the amount of water that enters the sock. Protection The under-sole is also made from a durable and gripping fabric to help with protection and control when walking to or from the water whether by the sea, lake or river.
