The Best Sailing Boots

When it comes to sailing boots, you will want to look out for a few things. Are the boots breathable, tall, or short, and what are they made from?

In my 10-year career in the yachting industry, I’ve found the best overall pair of sailing boots are the Gill Tall Yachting Boot.

• Value for money
• Durable and long-lasting
• Versatile boots suitable for all boating disciplines
• Not many! But prone to odor build-up

However, the equation has more nuance. It really depends on what discipline of sailing you need them for. I’ve highlighted the best for each scenario below:

One last mention before we start is there are only boots on this list. Check out this list for the top sailing shoes to wear on deck.

💦 Best Waterproof Sailing Boots – Xtratuf Legacy Series Boot

Pros 👍 Waterproof and triple-dipped neoprene Special non-slip material Durable and long-lasting

Cons 👎 Price point Fit not for wider feet

Xtratuf is known for doing one thing: making high-quality ocean-going waterproof boots. Their timeless classic is the Legacy Series Boot, and it’s still the best overall waterproof boot for sailing, fishing, and general boating.

Made from a synthetic material, they are lighter than traditional rubber boots. In addition, a unique triple-dipping process means the wearer will get a fully waterproof boot that is also highly durable and resistant to chemicals and cleaning products, so these boots won’t crack or fissure.

Aside from market-leading durability, they feature a stepped heel which helps keep them extremely comfortable after long hours of wear. And on the toe section is added abrasion resistance to absorb impacts and protect the foot.

The inner boot is constructed with a moisture-wicking and breathable lining to provide a little extra warmth, and Xtratuf says it reduces drying time.

A classic chevron pattern outsole provides unparalleled grip and traction for the wearer in inclement conditions.

• Waterproof and triple-dipped neoprene
• Special non-slip material
• Price point
• Fit not for wider feet

⛵ Best Dinghy Sailing Boots – Gill Edge Boots

Pros 👍 Made with a waterproof neoprene Provide good insulation & warmth Durable and long-lasting

Cons 👎 Not as breathable as other materials Higher price point than others on the market

Featuring a wrap-around flexible soul that’ll give you fantastic performance and grip when you move around the dinghy.

An easy entry system is key to making quality dinghy sailing boots, and the Gill Edge features a lace closure system that fully opens the ankle so you can hop in and out of them quickly.

They are constructed with 4mm neoprene which will help keep your feet warm and give you comfort even on full racing days on the water.

A wrap-around outer rubber sole gives you optimal grip in wet conditions, and there is reinforcement in the heel and toe. While a supported instep means you can maintain agility while wearing the non-marking soles.

Gill’s Edge series are useful in many watersports areas, from sailing and racing dinghies and lasers. To stand up paddleboarding and even surfing in cold water.

• Made with a waterproof neoprene
• Provide good insulation & warmth
• Not as breathable as other materials
• Higher price point than others on the market

🌊 Best Offshore Sailing Boots – Gill Offshore Boot

Pros 👍 Reinforced toe and heel Customize the fit with thermal molding Features a breathable membrane

Cons 👎 None!

The Gill Offshore Sailing Boots completes the offshore foul weather gear series, so these are perfectly matched with their OS jacket and trousers/bibs. However, they are still a brilliant choice even if you don’t own those.

These two-layer boots have loads of great features and capabilities. Firstly the inside of the boot is made with 3mm neoprene that fits snuggly against your leg. This provides great thermal protection and is lined with fire fleece which is what high-end wetsuits use.

The outside features Gill’s patented Xplore Fabric Technology, a three-layer fabric that provides the wearer with a highly durable, waterproof, breathable boot.

By pulling the outer layer up and over your foul-weather trouser, you will now have an extra layer of waterproofing and repellence from water ingress. A drawstring is at the top of the boot to seal off the top.

In addition, there is a perforated neoprene section at the bottom so that if any water is trapped between your bib and the outer layer, it’ll drain out.

The final aspect of these boots is the thermal molded foot. There is both heel and toe protection from reinforcements. On the bottom, a razor-cut outsole will give you heaps of grip for wet/slippery decks.

• Reinforced toe and heel
• Customize the fit with thermal molding
• Features a breathable membrane

🌡️ Best Warm Sailing Boots – Dubarry Ultima Sailing Boots

Made in Ireland with only the best materials Dubarry are the hallmark of leather boots. Their Ultima Sailing Boot gives you luxurious comfort and fantastic practical use.

You may ask why you would take a pair of leather boots out to sea. Dubarry has perfected its construction to be fully waterproof and breathable. As a result, they are incredibly strong and supple when salt water soaks the outside. But they’ll remain bone dry on the inside.

A hexagonal pattern on the outer sole provides loads of grip in slippery conditions and the ability to move around freely. It’s an award-winning design, as well as being non-marking. Heel and toe reinforcements provide extra layers of protection from stubbing and bumping into deck hardware.

Gore-tex lining on the inside is where these boots provide unmatched warmth, and if you are sailing or boating in cold conditions, then there is no better boot than the Ultima Sailing Boot.

These boots will last years if you take proper care of them. Leather takes extra work to keep them optimal, but it’s well worth the effort. You won’t find a warmer or more comfortable sailing boot on the market.

💵 Best Sailing Boots Under $100 – Gul Full Length Deck Boots

Pros 👍 Designed to be completely waterproof Built to last Non-slip soles The price

Cons 👎 Limited ventilation Heavier than other sailing boots Limited lifespan at this price

I have personally used these deck boots from Gul, and they are great value for money. Yacht crew routinely use these as working boots, and they hold up against harsh chemicals and cleaning products, as well as the Xtratuf Legacy Boots.

They also make for fantastic bargain sailing boots. The full-length high top features a drawstring closure to ensure a watertight seal so that you won’t have water falling inside the boot.

A razor-cut chevron patterned outsole provides plenty of grip in wet and slippery conditions. Additional support at the ankle means the boot is comfortable all day long. And extra protection at the heel and toe provides confidence around deck hardware.

These rubber boots provide you with full waterproofing. However, you will need warm socks if you are boating in colder conditions. But they will keep your feet dry.

At under $100, you can’t go wrong with these boots. They are comfortable, durable, and waterproof and have non-slip soles. That’s everything that most recreational boaters really need.

• Designed to be completely waterproof
• Built to last
• Non-slip soles
• Limited ventilation
• Heavier than other sailing boots

🏆 The Best Overall Sailing Boots – Gill Tall Yachting Boots

Pros 👍 Value for money Durable and long-lasting Versatile boots suitable for all boating disciplines

Cons 👎 Not many! But prone to odor build-up

These are another pair of boots I have used extensively in the yachting industry. They too, hold up better than expected against cleaning products and chemicals.

The most surprising of which is their resilience to teak two-parting products. If a pair of boots can make it through that, then I will personally certify them as durable.

They feature a razor-cut chevron patterned outsole to give you plenty of grip on the deck, and they are also quick-drying due to the polyester lining. Like the Gul boots above, you will need warm socks for cold-weather sailing.

With reinforcement in the heel, toe, and instep, you won’t need to watch every step, and there is added abrasion resistance around the base of the boot.

They are made from 100% rubber, which I have experienced as highly durable even if you decide to put them through their paces.

🧑‍⚖️ Our recommendation process

At Sailing Savvy, we have nearly 20 years of experience in the yachting industry. As a result, we have used numerous sailing boots from brands like Gill, Helly Hansen, Gul, and Musto.

The recommendations we share are 100% impartial and bias-free. We only offer genuine advice on what we have come to know as the best and most reliable sailing gear.

📃 Guide To Buying Sailing Boots

Tall boots vs. short boots.

Most sailing boots are eight high top or low cut. Ultimately it depends on what you’ll be doing out on the water. I’d recommend using a high boot for sailing because it works in unison with your foul-weather gear.

Having a short boot when wearing foul-weather trousers or bibs may cause a hindrance, and water will most definitely make its way inside the boot. The short boot makes sense if you use them for dinghy sailing, as you won’t want bulky footwear as you move around.

Single Layer and Multi-layers

Single-layer (typically rubber) boots are for most entry-level sailors. You get fully waterproof capability and non-slip outsoles. However, the rubber won’t keep your feet warm in cold weather sailing.

Getting a multi-layer boot is recommended if you are sailing in colder conditions. Dubarry makes the warmest boots on the market with their Gore-tex Thinsulate lining to keep the inside once and toasty.

Lastly, neoprene boots like the Gill Offshore fit snugly against the leg to aid in warmth. An out waterproof material keeps them waterproof. These boots are best for sailing conditions where you’ll encounter lots of sea spray and rain.

Breathability

Rubber boots don’t afford your feet breathability, so you need to consider this in your buying decision. If you are doing intense sailing, your feet will start to sweat, so the condensation can’t escape. Ultimately you’ll end up with wet feet and, by default, cold feet.

A boot made with neoprene will also trap moisture inside the boot. They will, however, keep your feet warm, which means you can still wear them for long periods.

Leather boots are breathable, so moisture can still escape. These are the best option to keep your feet dry and give you superior warmth.

🙋‍♀️ FAQs About Sailing Boots

Do you wear socks with sailing boots.

I always strongly recommend wearing socks with your sailing boots because they can help prevent blisters and provide warmth in cold weather. Socks can also absorb sweat and prevent foul smells from making their home inside your sailing boots.

There are several types of socks that can be worn with sailing boots, including:

Thick, cushioned socks: These socks provide extra padding and support for your feet, which is helpful when spending long periods of time out on the deck in inclement weather.

Moisture-wicking socks: Typically these socks are made from materials that draw moisture away from the skin, keeping your feet dry and comfortable.

Wool socks: Wool socks are a good choice for cold-weather sailing, as they naturally insulate and keep your feet warm. Pair good quality merino wool socks with Dubarry’s Ultimas, and you can’t go wrong.

What Boots To Wear On A Boat?

This follows from the buying guide I touched on above, but I’ll add some other factors here to consider for the sake of thoroughness.

Waterproofing: For wet conditions, choosing waterproof boots is important to keep your feet dry. Look for boots made from rubber or boots with a built-in waterproof lining.

Traction: Boat decks can be slippery, so it’s important to choose boots with good traction to help prevent falls. Look for boots with non-slip soles or traditional laser-cut chevron patterns on the outsole.

Support: If you’ll be standing for long periods, then choose boots that offer good support for your feet and ankles.

Warmth: We touched on this topic throughout the article, but to recap, cold-weather sailing requires warm and insulated boots. Thermally insulated sailing boots are your best bet for these conditions. Don’t forget your socks!

In general, choosing sailing boots that are durable, comfortable, and suitable for the conditions in which you’ll be sailing is a good idea. Be sure to try on different brands and styles to find the boots that work best for you.

💭 Final Thoughts

Many sailors use sailing boots at some stage or another. And while you may be tempted to get a cheap pair, you’ll regret not spending a little bit more for a good pair.

You can still get a quality pair for under $100 that’ll serve you well. But if you are cold weather sailing regularly, then investing in sailing boots that complement your foul weather gear is a must.

Ultimately keeping your feet warm is critical to your comfort and enjoyment out on the water. So next, I’d suggest diving into the best foul-weather gear on the market to round out your wet-weather equipment for your next sailing adventure.

Best sailing boots tested: Can waterproof boots be flexible, comfortable, breathable and dry?

• Bruce Jacobs
• July 10, 2017

Waterproof boots made of polyurethane are cheap, but when manufacturers of sailing boots ask a lot of money for rubber, Gore-Tex, breathability and comfort as well – is it worth it? Bruce Jacobs of Rubicon3 adventure sailing finds out.

Your feet can be warm, your feet can be dry, or your feet can smell (vaguely) acceptable when you pull your boots off after a hard watch on deck battling the elements. That, traditionally, has been the choice we sailors face when choosing sailing boots. You can definitely have any one of the three. You may be lucky and get two of them. But all three?

Well, it may be possible, but the demands on sailing boots are huge. They need tremendous grip, they have to be fully submersible and stay dry, they have to breathe, they have to have great thermal insulation and they have to do all this while being contorted out of shape and wedged into odd spaces.

The choice can usually be boiled down to one simple question: do I go for rubber boots that will never let moisture in or out, or do I go for ones with a breathable membrane that may ultimately do both?

Thankfully, with the new generation of sailing boots that combine plastics and breathable membranes, the choice is becoming less stark. From our expeditions in the heat of Morocco to the ice-laden waters off Svalbard, we’ve seen spent a season seeing what different boots can do.

Be warned, there are some seriously good sailing boots here.

Polyurethane or rubber?

Boots without a breathable membrane are usually made of rubber or polyurethane (PU).

PU is an artificial rubber. It is lighter but still flexible and with good thermal properties. It’s a tough material and tests have shown that polyurethane boots can last two or three times longer than boots made from rubber.

Rubber on the other hand is a largely natural material, made from the sap of rubber trees that grow in the tropics. It’s more flexible and naturally comfortable than PU and probably has a better grip, hence its common use in boots.

Dubarry Crosshaven sailing boots

This boot was developed by Dubarry in association with a Volvo Ocean Race team and it really shows. A Gore-Tex lining keeps the inside of the boot both waterproof and fairly free from sweat and condensation.

Where boots often fail is at the seams, which eventually open up from (often lateral) wear and tear. This boot has minimised the seams to prevent this and after six months’ hard use, it remained impregnable to the sea.

The upper sections of the boot are a mixture of leather and Cordura, a super-tough, canvas-like fabric, and the inside of the boot is full of thermal insulation. A really good-sized gaiter is made even better for having drainage at its base.

There’s no denying that these boots are mighty expensive, which reduces their final score a bit, but the mixture of performance and durability meant our skippers loved them.

Waterproofness: 4.5/5 Breathability: 4.5/5 Warmth: 4/5 Grip: 3.5/5 Durability: 4/5 Overall rating: 4/5

Guy cotten ultralite sailing boots.

I was keen to try these industrial-style PU boots after my last two pairs of Gore-Tex lined sailing boots had failed fairly quickly. They looked indestructible and were the cheapest of the boots on test.

They performed faultlessly in that they showed no signs of wear after some hard use over the season and never let a drop of water in. However, they also never let a drop out and a sweaty foot gets pretty damp anyway!

My feet also… how to put this delicately… smelt strongly, or so my crew told me. Another issue I found was that the sole was a bit too wide for a yacht and kept getting jammed in gaps between deckware.

Finally, with no insulation, you can really feel those cold days at sea unless you are wearing thick thermal socks. These are very light, well made boots but are probably best kept to their intended use – on fishing vessels.

Waterproofness: 5/5 Breathability: 1/5 Warmth: 2/5 Grip: 3/5 Durability: 5/5 Overall rating: 2/5

RRP: £65 / $85

Gill Breathable Performance sailing boots

One of our first mates wore these sailing boots all season and still raves about them.

These are really thick, comfortable boots and she reckons they are the most comfortable ones she has ever worn. Not only that, they are probably the warmest too, with fantastic insulation.

The padding all around the ankle is a godsend when it’s time for putting in some hard labour on the foredeck and the grip is brilliant, which is certainly an important factor on a serious boot.

On the downside, the breathability could only be described as average, maybe as a result of all the thermal insulation, and the boot seemed a little wide, meaning it got stuck in a few areas at crucial times.

As with every boot it’s a trade-off, but for colder climates and serious ocean sailing, this boot is a real contender.

Waterproofness: 4/5 Breathability: 3.5/5 Warmth: 4/5 Grip: 4.5/5 Durability: 4/5 Overall rating: 4/5

RRP: £169 / $170

Le Chameau Alize Ponti rubber boots

Mention Le Chameau to a serious sailor and you get a dreamy look on their face. This is a top quality brand; many a Volvo Ocean Race team has used their boots and the famous red gaiter is instantly recognisable.

The Alize Ponti has been used all season and been really well received. It is a rubber boot, so guaranteed waterproofness year round, but a bit hot and sweaty inside and not a great deal of insulation.

The gaiter at the top of the boot is essential and keeps any sea water out.

What really marked these boots out for us though were the comfort and the grip. Both were superb – which can be unusual for a rubber boot. This level of grip is something Le Chameau really focuses on and it shows.

Designed for coastal sailing, they performed really well all season.

Helly Hansen Aegir Ocean Gaiter II sailing boots

Helly Hansen has produced a very good rubber boot here.

Yes, the Aegir Ocean Gaiter 2 offers little breathability, like any rubber boot, but after a season’s hard use our skipper gave them a big thumbs up – because they do exactly what a sailing boot should do: 100 per cent dry, loads of grip with the specialised Helly-grip rubber soles and a superb gaiter to keep rogue sea water out.

When things got really cold, they perhaps lacked a little of the thermal properties that some of the pricier boots had, but that would be our only criticism.

Indeed, we have to be honest and admit that looks do matter, even for sailing boots, and these boots were the best looking pair on test.

• Sailing Boots: The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Pair

Are you an avid sailor or planning to embark on a sailing adventure? One essential item you need to consider is a pair of reliable sailing boots. Sailing boots are specifically designed to provide protection, comfort, and stability while out on the water. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore everything you need to know about sailing boots, including popular brands, features to look for, and why investing in a high-quality pair is crucial. So, let's set sail and dive into the world of sailing boots!

1. Sailig Boot Basics

Sailing boots are a crucial piece of footwear for anyone who spends time on a boat. Whether you are a professional sailor, a casual cruiser, or a weekend warrior, having the right pair of sailing boots can make a world of difference in terms of comfort, safety, and performance.

2. Why Sailing Boots Matter

When sailing, your feet are exposed to various elements such as water, wind, and slippery surfaces. Sailing boots are designed to keep your feet dry, provide traction, and protect you from the harsh marine environment. They offer excellent grip on wet decks, prevent slipping, and minimize the risk of accidents on board.

3. Key Features of Sailing Boots

3.1 waterproof and breathable materials.

One of the essential features of sailing boots is their ability to keep your feet dry. Look for boots made from high-quality waterproof materials such as Gore-Tex or neoprene. These materials not only prevent water from entering the boots but also allow your feet to breathe, ensuring comfort during long hours on the water.

3.2 Non-Slip Outsoles

Sailing boots should have non-slip outsoles that provide excellent grip on wet surfaces. Look for boots with specialized rubber or rubber compound outsoles that offer superior traction and stability, even in challenging conditions.

3.3 Reinforced Toe and Heel

To protect your feet from impact and injury, sailing boots often feature reinforced toe and heel areas. These reinforcements provide extra durability and support, particularly when navigating rough and rocky terrain.

3.4 Ankle Support

Stability and support are vital when sailing, especially when the boat is heeling or experiencing rough seas. Opt for sailing boots with ankle support to prevent sprains and ensure a secure fit that keeps your feet comfortable and protected.

3.5 Easy On and Off

Considering the sometimes hectic nature of sailing, it's important to choose boots that are easy to put on and take off. Look for boots with adjustable closures, such as laces or straps, that allow for quick and convenient wearing.

3.6 Insulation

If you plan to sail in colder climates, insulation becomes a critical feature. Look for sailing boots with added insulation or a lining that helps keep your feet warm and cozy, allowing you to focus on your sailing adventures without discomfort.

3.7 Durability

Sailing boots need to withstand the rigors of the marine environment. Look for boots made from high-quality materials and reinforced stitching to ensure longevity and durability, even with frequent use and exposure to saltwater.

4. Popular Brands of Sailing Boots

4.1 dubarry sailing boots.

Dubarry is renowned for producing premium sailing boots. With a reputation for quality craftsmanship and style, Dubarry boots offer excellent protection, comfort, and durability. Their boots are made from high-quality materials and feature innovative technologies, making them a top choice for sailors around the world.

4.2 Gill Sailing Boots

Gill is another leading brand in the sailing world. Gill sailing boots are designed with performance in mind, offering exceptional grip and comfort. Known for their cutting-edge design and attention to detail, Gill boots are a popular choice among professional sailors and sailing enthusiasts alike.

4.3 Helly Hansen Sailing Boots

Choosing the right pair of sailing boots can significantly enhance your sailing experience. Here are some factors to consider when making your selection:

5.1 Consider Your Sailing Environment

Take into account the type of sailing you'll be doing and the prevailing weather conditions in your sailing area. Different environments may require specific features in your sailing boots, such as insulation for colder waters or extra breathability for warmer climates.

5.2 Determine Your Budget

Sailing boots come in a range of prices, so it's important to determine your budget before making a purchase. While it's tempting to opt for the cheapest option, investing in a higher-quality pair of boots will likely provide better durability, comfort, and performance in the long run.

5.3 Try Them On

Before purchasing sailing boots, it's crucial to try them on and assess their fit and comfort. Walk around in them, pay attention to any pressure points, and ensure they provide adequate support. Remember that a good fit is essential for optimum performance and comfort on the water.

5.4 Read Reviews and Seek Recommendations

To gain insights into the performance and durability of different sailing boots, read reviews from other sailors and seek recommendations from experienced sailors or professionals. Their firsthand experiences can help you make an informed decision.

6. Proper Care and Maintenance of Sailing Boots

To prolong the lifespan of your sailing boots and ensure they remain in excellent condition, follow these care and maintenance tips:

6.1 Cleaning and Drying

After each use, rinse off any saltwater or dirt from your boots using fresh water. Allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause damage to the materials.

6.2 Storage Tips

When not in use, store your sailing boots in a cool, dry place. Keep them away from extreme temperatures, as this can affect their integrity. Stuffing them with newspaper or using boot trees can help them maintain their shape.

6.3 Repairs and Replacements

Inspect your boots regularly for any signs of damage or wear. If you notice any issues, such as loose stitching or worn-out soles, consider getting them repaired or replaced promptly to ensure continued performance and safety.

7. Sailing Boots for Women

Women's sailing boots are designed with a specific fit and style to accommodate the anatomical differences of female feet. Many reputable brands offer women's sailing boots, providing a wide range of options that prioritize both functionality and aesthetics.

8. Sailing Boots for Men

Men's sailing boots come in various styles, sizes, and features to suit individual preferences and needs. From classic designs to modern innovations, men's sailing boots offer durability, comfort, and performance to withstand the demands of sailing.

9. Sailing Boots for Kids

For young sailors, it's crucial to invest in properly fitted sailing boots that provide adequate support and protection. Look for brands that offer children's sizing options, ensuring their boots can grow with them and accommodate their developing feet.

10. Alternative Options: Sailing Wellies and Sea Boots

Aside from traditional sailing boots, alternative options such as sailing wellies and sea boots are worth considering. Sailing wellies offer excellent waterproofing and are typically more affordable, while sea boots provide extra insulation and protection for colder climates.

11. The Verdict: Investing in Quality Sailing Boots

When it comes to sailing boots, investing in quality is paramount. High-quality sailing boots offer superior comfort, protection, and durability, allowing you to focus on your sailing adventures with peace of mind. So, prioritize your safety and performance by choosing a pair of sailing boots from a reputable brand.

Sailing boots are an indispensable part of any sailor's gear. They provide essential protection, comfort, and stability when navigating the waters. By considering the key features, popular brands, and care tips mentioned in this guide, you can confidently choose the perfect pair of sailing boots for your maritime journeys. So, gear up, set sail, and enjoy your sailing experience to the fullest!

The Best Sailing Boots for Serious Sailors

• November 2, 2022

While we all love comfortable shoes while sailing, sometimes the boat or the conditions demand a little more support or protection. Cold, wet feet make for cold bodies and bad traction. So whether you’re racing offshore, around the buoys in a dinghy, crossing oceans in a cruising boat, or even sailing home from a weekend when the weather turns bad, you’ll want the extra warmth, protection and dryness of a good set of boots.

What Makes a Good Sailing Boot?

What makes the difference between a boot serves you well and one that does not? Much depends on what type of boot you’re buying and how you’re sailing, but a few basics hold true for all boots.

Comfortable Fit

It’s got to fit you well without pinching or binding. And it can’t be too big, since that leads to unsure footing as your feet slide around inside. For deck boots, make sure you can fit a pair of warm socks inside them, preferably a wool blend. Dinghy boots you’ll often wear with nothing under them, but if you are buying them for cold water sailing or frostbiting, you also need space for dry socks or a dry suit liner bootie.

Gripping Sole

This could easily be the top criteria, because slick soled boots are worthless and dangerous. Look for a good grip no matter the boot. Even if you’re a dinghy sailor, you might need to stand up on the deck to fix something in the rig. A slick sole is a sure way to slip and hurt yourself.

While you don’t need a steel-toed boot, in bad conditions with water on the deck and poor visibility, you may well trip and stumble over deck hardware. It will still hurt, but a good boot will keep you from damaging your toes as you scurry around a pitching deck. For dinghy boots, think about where they touch the boat. If you use a hiking strap, some reinforcement on the top of the boots goes a long way towards comfort on a long day of racing.

Breathability

Even in cold, wet conditions, if you’re working hard you’re going to sweat under your foulies, and that includes your boots. Not all boots will breathe, and heavy rubber sea boots will not. But it’s in the “nice to have” category since you may live in the boots for a while on an offshore passage.

Warmth/Insulation

For dinghy boots, warmth isn’t usually the first consideration unless you’re frostbiting in the winter. Most of them are neoprene, and trap and hold warm water like a wet suit. Sea boots can offer thermal protection, and should keep your feet warm if the temperature drops.

Water Management

For sea boots offshore, water management means “keep it out”. They should have a high enough cut to overlap foul weather gear. Straps or ties to form a tight seal against the leg are a great feature.

Dinghy boats let water in, but also need to drain. You will be wet, and these boots are not for keeping you dry. They’re for protection and warmth, and they should not hold water beyond what they need for wetsuit function. Ankle seals can help this.

Construction and Material Quality

Like any shoe, boots and be glued, stitched, rubber welded, or some combination of all three techniques. Learn about the materials in the boot and how they’re assembled. Stitching usually gives the toughest construction, but it also puts holes in the rubber and makes leaky spots, so it’s not as common in 100% rubber boots.

Polyurethane boots are usually the least expensive and are not breathable. Natural rubber is more expensive, but softer and more comfortable. The addition of Gore-Tex, neoprene, and other advanced synthetics increase both the price and performance of the boots, but that’s what gives the breathability. Ideally, you’ll have a combination of stitching and/or welding to give you a solid build with a waterproof covering.

Easy On/Off

Getting in and out of full foul weather gear on a pitching boat is a chore. When you’re scrambling topside in an emergency, you have little time to gear up for the weather. And your boots shouldn’t make it impossible. And you don’t want a struggle to get your gear off to visit the head or hit the berth off watch.

While a proper fit will keep them from being too hard to get off, the addition of grips, straps and other tools to help get them on is a big help. When loosened, ties and straps to for water tightness make it easier to get in and out of boots.

Try your boots on in your living room, where it’s warm, dry, and not moving. Then take them off again. Then try it wearing your foulies, PFD, and harness, because your boots go on after your pants. If you have any struggle in benign conditions, you may also struggle in the dark with unsure footing.

Musto Ocean Racer Sailing Boots reviewed

• November 8, 2023

The Musto Ocean Racer Sailing Boots are at the top end of the boot offering from Musto, but what price for foot comfort in a hostile environment out at sea? On test for two years, Fox Forgan gives the lowdown on these premium boots.

Product Overview

Overall rating:.

• • warm inner boot
• • Super grippy
• • drawstring gator to stop your pants getting snagged or back wash
• • top end of the price scale for boots
• • May be a little too bulky for everyday casual use

MUSTO OCEAN RACER SAILING BOOTS

Ok, the thing is, I’m not going to waste any time saying this, but I absolutely love these Musto Ocean Racer Sailing Boots. I bought my own pair of these a couple years ago and they have been pretty much the best thing to put on my leg ends through summer and winter. Full disclaimer though, they aren’t totally without mild cursing when I’m trussed up like a thanksgiving turkey and trying to get my salopette pant leg tucked into these gators. They’ve  had me swearing and sweating a bit during summer months when the weather is foul but the temperature not too cold. The soles are grippy as heck, I feel absolute confidence in these as I’ve run about up on the foredeck, case in point when I was trying to sort out a jammed third reef in some particularly sporty conditions coming back across the English channel this past summer. The ankle support is good but allows good articulation without chafe. The highly adjustable inner boot means even my skinny chicken legs can get a snug fit and for those with more ample calves, you’ll get a good fit too. Beware though, that the outer gator doesn’t have quite so much luxury of adjustability. So if you do have totally hench calf muscles, you might swear more than me pulling those gators back up. With the minor quibbles aside, these have got to be the most comfortable sailing boots I’ve had in many a year. I like the little touches too to make them more useable, which includes the small rubber heal spur to allow one foot to grip the other when pulling these boots off.

Buy it now from Musto

The lace up inner boot gives quick and easy access to pull them on and adjust them for a cosy fit.

I get particularly excited when a manufacturer produces a decent spec boot available in sizes that fit us folks with little (or littleish) feet. So many times I’ve looked longingly at a decent pair of deck trainers or other manufacturers boots only to find that they start at a size bigger than fits me. These go as small as a UK 4 or US 4.5 which is not too bad. They go up to a size 10.5 US size too. I think that’s a decent range of sizes to cover the majority of people. I have a fairly strict rule that my sailing boots aren’t worn anywhere but on deck or by the chart table so I have managed to avoid going for any long walks in them. That’s not what these are designed for. They’re designed for gripping a wet deck at a silly angle and they do this really very well whilst still giving the support for my foot that I need when standing on helm for a long stint beating to windward.

Yes, they’re pricey. and yes they’re technical, but they are also excellent. Thankyou Musto for making a proper gnarly sailing boot that women can wear as well as men.

big thumbs up from me for these.

Specifications: Shell Fabric: Mesh, Rubber, Non-Woven;Lining: GORE-TEX®, sizes UK 4 to 10, USA 4.5 – 10.5

Product Review: Gill Marine Footwear

By: Zeke Quezada, ASA Equipment , Partners , Product Review

I don’t look good in boots.  It’s a fact that boots on me look ridiculous and that is mainly because I sail in shorts year round.  With that said when Gill Marine sent over some of their gear for me to test out I wondered if I would be willing to alter my appearance for a product review.

Of course I would, I’m a professional, so I still attempted to walk around in the boots for feel, comfort and general idea of what you could expect while wearing shorts.  You can imagine the looks I got on the docks.

I should start by saying that eventually, I put on the Gill Marine Coastal Trousers, and these boots pair well with this foul weather gear.  The Coastal Trousers features their XPEL fabric technology that guarantees you will stay dry along with fully taped seams and the fit that keeps you comfortable, dry, and looking quite dashing!

These Gill Marine Boots and Deck Shoes were tested while sailing, at the dock, and while performing a few other activities such as washing down the deck, cleaning my neighbors pool and a 3 mile run. (Explanation to follow)  There was some horseplay with a water hose and one of my family members took the waterproof testing to an extreme level.  Have you ever been told to not run on a wet, slippery surface? Well, we did that too.     

The Gill Marine Footwear

Before I begin to describe these products it is important to note that the Offshore Boot and the Tall Yachting Boot kept my feet dry under intense pressure to get them to fail. They saw water action in various forms that would replicate any extremely wet sail day short of going overboard.

Gill Marine provided a pair of Waterproof Boat Socks to use while testing the boots.  I cannot stress enough how much you will need these socks for comfort when utilizing sailing boots.  You should know that these socks are so comfortable that you will be wearing them around the house, in bed and when you are on the hook and simply calling it a day. The socks are waterproof and their long length make them ideal for boots.

Gill Marine Offshore Boot

• External Gaitor for added waterproof protection
• Non-slip, non-marking soles for extraordinary grip
• Neoprene inner thermal lining
• Reinforced heel, toe and in step that lends plenty of support with quick movements

If there is one thing that may have been an issue with the Gill Marine Offshore Boot is the thermal lining as these boots were warm. I was testing them on a day that hovered at 68 degrees and I was wearing the long socks. I also felt the need to run around like a madman trying to test the non-skid ability of these boots. On the deck, these boots hold firm and provide good support when planting and making lateral movements. The gaitor fits snugly around my calf and it has a drawstring to tighten or loosen the fit.  I utilized these for a very wet job of cleaning a pool and they kept my feet warm even as water was being sprayed at me. Wearing these boots without socks initially felt comfortable but eventually led to a swampy boot. Again, they will keep your feet warm and comfortable.

Tall Yachting Boot

• 100% natural rubber compound
• Padded Tie Top
• Removable inner soles that work well with personal orthotics

This is a no-nonsense boot that will keep you dry while working on deck or on the dock.  Paired with long socks the Tall Yachting Boot will also keep your feet warm.  The padded top keeps them comfortable when performing tasks that require bending, squatting, or twisting. The soles of these boots are non-skid and they hold well on most any deck.  I attempted a skid on slick cement and they held. If you get sprayed with water the drawstring has to be pulled in tight or you will get moist.  They are not as breathable so paired with the coastal trouser these boots are up to the task of keeping you dry.  These boots are also very good for wet jobs on the dock when you just want your feet to stay dry. Oh, they don’t look that bad if you are wearing shorts. Go ahead, try it.

Mawgan Trainer

• Non-slip, non-marking slip resistant shoe
• Comfortable removable Air-cell insoles
• Water expulsion channels for use in wet conditions

The Mawgan Trainers are comfortable, versatile, and perform incredibly well when wet. They dry quickly and your feet are stable even when entirely soaked. These shoes feel like running shoes that are meant for the deck of a performance sailboat.  They hold well on wet decks and they give you ample support when making lateral movements on deck.  I ran three miles with these shoes with no socks on. I expected blisters but instead was shocked at how comfortable they were. Don’t get me wrong, they are not designed for running but they are designed to help you move around the deck in wet conditions. I dunked them in the ocean and went about my business. This is the sneaker that boat lovers have always wanted. I am wearing them right now!

Product Description

Our Tall Yachting Boots are the perfect solution for keeping a steady grip on slippy surfaces. A 100% natural rubber compound boot, they are quick drying with a polyester lining and removeable cushioned insoles. Their reinforced heel, instep and toe, combined with the non-slip, non-marking razor cut outsole ensure a safe grip, while the padded tie top adds that extra level of security. Our Yachting Boots are suitable for conditions all year round, ideal for sailors or any other athletes who requires a comfortable, secure boot.

By following a few simple steps, you can help protect your rubber and neoprene footwear and maintain their performance. After every use, we recommend that you clean the exterior of your boots with a stiff brush and wipe with a wet sponge, leaving them to dry naturally. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight. Avoid extremes of temperature, especially sources of direct heat and sunshine. Please note that boat cabins and stowage lockers can be subject to significant changes in temperature. Should the inside of your boots become wet, you should thoroughly dry before use or long-term storage. Crumpled newspaper will help draw out moisture and can help speed up the drying time. Heat and a lack of abrasion can cause the outside surface of the sole to stiffen and become shiny over time. You can renew the rubber material with a grit paper or by regularly walking over rough surfaces such as asphalt or concrete.

Sailing Boots Buying Guide

To find the best sailing boots for your needs, you have to consider a few things. This buying guide will help you select the right pair by explaining everything you need to look for, so you can have a great sailing adventure every time you get on the water!

Choose the Right Size

Having the right size will ensure your boots feel comfortable on your feet. Imagine running around in shoes that are too tight — it would be bound to ruin your whole trip! During or after your purchase, try on the shoes before going on a real expedition.

Do your toes cramp? Is there enough room left to wiggle them around? Do you feel pressure from the front or side? Check for these things to see if the boots fit or not. Make sure they aren’t so tight that you don’t feel comfortable wearing them. Give them a trial run and walk in them for a while to make sure the size is right.

Which Material Should I Go For?

Sailing boots are available in a variety of materials that can make a huge difference in your sailing experience. Here are two materials that are commonly used in sailing boots:

Leather is one of the most widely used materials in sailing boots because it is treated to resist saltwater, which reduces water absorption and speeds up the drying process. The type of leather can be further divided into two types: nubuck and full-grain leather. The difference between the two is that the former has been buffed to give a suede-like look, whereas the latter has a smoother look. However, both types of leather are durable, sturdy, and resistant to wear and tear.

Waterproof neoprene is also a commonly used material in sailing boots and is considered ideal for cold weather. A lot of adventure sailors prefer it over rubber as it is resistant to damage from aging and the sun. Plus, these boots have a non-slip rubber sole, making it easier for you to walk on wet and slippery surfaces without falling. Best of all, neoprene boots are more comfortable and budget-friendly than traditional boots.

Durability 

Your boots (and, of course, you) will be exposed to a lot of degrading elements on the boat, such as intense sunlight, saltwater, and more. To survive exposure to these elements, you need durable boots that can take you through these conditions and successfully back to the shore. Therefore, the durability factor is one of the main things to consider when buying sailing boots. The best way to check for durability is through online reviews and brand recognition. Reviews will tell you if you should trust a brand in terms of durability, which will help you come to a decision.

Flexibility

When you’re on the boat or engaging in other water-related activities, your feet are constantly moving. You may have to jump, climb, or glide through the water in your boots. Therefore, to ensure that your feet can engage in a wide range of motion, you need to make sure that your sailing boots are flexible enough to allow you that kind of movement. Usually, rubber or neoprene boots offer excellent flexibility. Still, it’s always best to try on the shoes before actually going into the water to make sure they are up to the mark.

The ideal boot height is determined by your personal preferences. Some people prefer shorter boots whereas others like to go for tall ones, and there are advantages and disadvantages to both options. For example, shorter boots feel less bulky, but they offer limited protection as compared to tall boots. In this situation, taller boots are better; they cover the length between pants and boots, preventing water from entering via the top and saving your legs from sunburn. For casual use, people usually prefer short boots, but if you plan to go in deep waters then we recommend you go for tall boots.

Proper Maintenance

How long your boots last depends on how well you take care of them. The easiest way to take care of them is to rinse the shoes with fresh, clean water, and condition them. Before you put them away, make sure that they are completely dried out so the residual water doesn’t cause any damage. 

Rubber shoes are simple to clean. They just require rinsing with water and you are good to go. However, it’s always best to check the manufacturer’s instructions regarding cleaning and maintaining sailing boots to ensure that you’re doing it right.

People Also Asked

Sailing boots are easy to clean and maintain. You just have to rinse them with fresh water, which should remove the grit and salt. After that, they should be ready for use again. If you’re not satisfied with cleaning with just water, use a mild non-detergent soap and rinse with warm water. However, make sure to check if the manufacturer’s care instructions allow cleaning with soap.

Yes, they are. However, you should go for micro-porous materials as they have better breathability. They enable sweat to escape the shoes, and as a result, your feet stay dry and clean. Moreover, the shoes don’t smell bad once you take them off because the airflow allows the smell to fade away.

Usually, sailing boots work without socks, but there are no restrictions against them. Some people wear them with socks and pair them with a polo shirt and shorts to make a fashion statement. However, people with sweaty feet are recommended to wear cotton inserts to avoid any smell from being trapped inside. If you’re someone who can’t wear shoes without socks, you can try low-cut or no-show socks as they don’t show.

The Moscow Metro Museum of Art: 10 Must-See Stations

There are few times one can claim having been on the subway all afternoon and loving it, but the Moscow Metro provides just that opportunity.  While many cities boast famous public transport systems—New York’s subway, London’s underground, San Salvador’s chicken buses—few warrant hours of exploration.  Moscow is different: Take one ride on the Metro, and you’ll find out that this network of railways can be so much more than point A to B drudgery.

The Metro began operating in 1935 with just thirteen stations, covering less than seven miles, but it has since grown into the world’s third busiest transit system ( Tokyo is first ), spanning about 200 miles and offering over 180 stops along the way.  The construction of the Metro began under Joseph Stalin’s command, and being one of the USSR’s most ambitious building projects, the iron-fisted leader instructed designers to create a place full of svet (radiance) and svetloe budushchee (a radiant future), a palace for the people and a tribute to the Mother nation.

Consequently, the Metro is among the most memorable attractions in Moscow.  The stations provide a unique collection of public art, comparable to anything the city’s galleries have to offer and providing a sense of the Soviet era, which is absent from the State National History Museum.  Even better, touring the Metro delivers palpable, experiential moments, which many of us don’t get standing in front of painting or a case of coins.

Though tours are available , discovering the Moscow Metro on your own provides a much more comprehensive, truer experience, something much less sterile than following a guide.  What better place is there to see the “real” Moscow than on mass transit: A few hours will expose you to characters and caricatures you’ll be hard-pressed to find dining near the Bolshoi Theater.  You become part of the attraction, hear it in the screech of the train, feel it as hurried commuters brush by: The Metro sucks you beneath the city and churns you into the mix.

With the recommendations of our born-and-bred Muscovite students, my wife Emma and I have just taken a self-guided tour of what some locals consider the top ten stations of the Moscow Metro. What most satisfied me about our Metro tour was the sense of adventure .  I loved following our route on the maps of the wagon walls as we circled the city, plotting out the course to the subsequent stops; having the weird sensation of being underground for nearly four hours; and discovering the next cavern of treasures, playing Indiana Jones for the afternoon, piecing together fragments of Russia’s mysterious history.  It’s the ultimate interactive museum.

Top Ten Stations (In order of appearance)

Kievskaya station.

Kievskaya Station went public in March of 1937, the rails between it and Park Kultury Station being the first to cross the Moscow River.  Kievskaya is full of mosaics depicting aristocratic scenes of Russian life, with great cameo appearances by Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin.  Each work has a Cyrillic title/explanation etched in the marble beneath it; however, if your Russian is rusty, you can just appreciate seeing familiar revolutionary dates like 1905 ( the Russian Revolution ) and 1917 ( the October Revolution ).

Mayakovskaya Station

Mayakovskaya Station ranks in my top three most notable Metro stations. Mayakovskaya just feels right, done Art Deco but no sense of gaudiness or pretention.  The arches are adorned with rounded chrome piping and create feeling of being in a jukebox, but the roof’s expansive mosaics of the sky are the real showstopper.  Subjects cleverly range from looking up at a high jumper, workers atop a building, spires of Orthodox cathedrals, to nimble aircraft humming by, a fleet of prop planes spelling out CCCP in the bluest of skies.

Novoslobodskaya Station

Novoslobodskaya is the Metro’s unique stained glass station.  Each column has its own distinctive panels of colorful glass, most of them with a floral theme, some of them capturing the odd sailor, musician, artist, gardener, or stenographer in action.  The glass is framed in Art Deco metalwork, and there is the lovely aspect of discovering panels in the less frequented haunches of the hall (on the trackside, between the incoming staircases).  Novosblod is, I’ve been told, the favorite amongst out-of-town visitors.

Komsomolskaya Station

Komsomolskaya Station is one of palatial grandeur.  It seems both magnificent and obligatory, like the presidential palace of a colonial city.  The yellow ceiling has leafy, white concrete garland and a series of golden military mosaics accenting the tile mosaics of glorified Russian life.  Switching lines here, the hallway has an Alice-in-Wonderland feel, impossibly long with decorative tile walls, culminating in a very old station left in a remarkable state of disrepair, offering a really tangible glimpse behind the palace walls.

Dostoevskaya Station

Dostoevskaya is a tribute to the late, great hero of Russian literature .  The station at first glance seems bare and unimpressive, a stark marble platform without a whiff of reassembled chips of tile.  However, two columns have eerie stone inlay collages of scenes from Dostoevsky’s work, including The Idiot , The Brothers Karamazov , and Crime and Punishment.   Then, standing at the center of the platform, the marble creates a kaleidoscope of reflections.  At the entrance, there is a large, inlay portrait of the author.

Chkalovskaya Station

Chkalovskaya does space Art Deco style (yet again).  Chrome borders all.  Passageways with curvy overhangs create the illusion of walking through the belly of a chic, new-age spacecraft.  There are two (kos)mosaics, one at each end, with planetary subjects.  Transferring here brings you above ground, where some rather elaborate metalwork is on display.  By name similarity only, I’d expected Komsolskaya Station to deliver some kosmonaut décor; instead, it was Chkalovskaya that took us up to the space station.

Elektrozavodskaya Station

Elektrozavodskaya is full of marble reliefs of workers, men and women, laboring through the different stages of industry.  The superhuman figures are round with muscles, Hollywood fit, and seemingly undeterred by each Herculean task they respectively perform.  The station is chocked with brass, from hammer and sickle light fixtures to beautiful, angular framework up the innards of the columns.  The station’s art pieces are less clever or extravagant than others, but identifying the different stages of industry is entertaining.

Baumanskaya Statio

Baumanskaya Station is the only stop that wasn’t suggested by the students.  Pulling in, the network of statues was just too enticing: Out of half-circle depressions in the platform’s columns, the USSR’s proud and powerful labor force again flaunts its success.  Pilots, blacksmiths, politicians, and artists have all congregated, posing amongst more Art Deco framing.  At the far end, a massive Soviet flag dons the face of Lenin and banners for ’05, ’17, and ‘45.  Standing in front of the flag, you can play with the echoing roof.

Ploshchad Revolutsii Station

Novokuznetskaya Station

Novokuznetskaya Station finishes off this tour, more or less, where it started: beautiful mosaics.  This station recalls the skyward-facing pieces from Mayakovskaya (Station #2), only with a little larger pictures in a more cramped, very trafficked area.  Due to a line of street lamps in the center of the platform, it has the atmosphere of a bustling market.  The more inventive sky scenes include a man on a ladder, women picking fruit, and a tank-dozer being craned in.  The station’s also has a handsome black-and-white stone mural.

Here is a map and a brief description of our route:

Start at (1)Kievskaya on the “ring line” (look for the squares at the bottom of the platform signs to help you navigate—the ring line is #5, brown line) and go north to Belorusskaya, make a quick switch to the Dark Green/#2 line, and go south one stop to (2)Mayakovskaya.  Backtrack to the ring line—Brown/#5—and continue north, getting off at (3)Novosblodskaya and (4)Komsolskaya.  At Komsolskaya Station, transfer to the Red/#1 line, go south for two stops to Chistye Prudy, and get on the Light Green/#10 line going north.  Take a look at (5)Dostoevskaya Station on the northern segment of Light Green/#10 line then change directions and head south to (6)Chkalovskaya, which offers a transfer to the Dark Blue/#3 line, going west, away from the city center.  Have a look (7)Elektroskaya Station before backtracking into the center of Moscow, stopping off at (8)Baumskaya, getting off the Dark Blue/#3 line at (9)Ploschad Revolyutsii.  Change to the Dark Green/#2 line and go south one stop to see (10)Novokuznetskaya Station.
