XCEL Surf Boots Reviews – 2010

Hi Again,

Well the winter season is upon us and all the winter gear is hitting the shops. Sid’s Surf Shack is no different and would like to take a look at the various boots that are about and give reviews on what they are like and how they will benefit you in the water.

XCEL 5mm Infiniti Drylock Bamboo Boots
XCEL 5mm Infiniti Tek Bamboo Lined Boots
XCEL 7mm Infiniti Tek Boots Round Toe

All of XCEL’s boots are seriously high quality products and will all do the job depending on what your after.

XCEL 5mm Infiniti Drylock Bamboo Boots

This season’s Infiniti Drylock Boots are just as good as last, even better. However, within the design this season, XCEL have incorporated Bamboo Recycled products to make sure they are as eco friendly to the environment as possible. The Bamboo lined boots track pockets of air which in turn create better insulation to you feet letting you stay out that extra bit longer. As with all XCEL’s Surf Boots, they run a decent way up the leg making for a good overlap with your wetsuit and with the Drylock cuff technology at the top of the boot, its a miracle if any water finds its way in! A great winter boot by our reckoning.

XCEL 5mm Infiniti Tek Boots

The Infiniti Tek boots have been styled differently this season with new colours, but again, this is the only visual difference, with the same high quality boot as last year but also with the bamboo lining, with XCEL not compromising on quality or style. They realise the importance of warmth. The only major difference here from the Infinti Drylock Boots is that they straight seal at the top rather that the drylock cuff. A great boot that we have been wearing for years.

XCEL 7mm Infinti Tek Round Toe Boot

If 5mm just isn’t good enough for you then try the 7mm. You can just about use these 7mm Inifniti Tek boots anywhere giving you the maximum protection from the elements. Like the Infiniti Tek and Drylock’s, they are Bamboo Lined for ultra warmth, but with that extra 2mm, you should have no problems on a long session. An arch strap (As with all XCEL’s boots) makes them easy to get off on those freezing days and they also run high up the leg creating a good overlap with your Wetsuit.

No matter what your looking for this winter, the XCEL’s range will do exactly what you want, and more. Just take your time to choose which is best for you and you wont be dissapointed.
