NeilPryde Toastie Socks

These 1mm double lined neoprene socks were primarily designed to be worn inside NeilPryde Sailing’s Evolution boot, but will work with any waterproof sailing boot.

A titanium coating on the inside increases warmth and seams are placed to avoid chafe. The Toastie Socks are available in four sizes to suit UK shoe sizes from 5-12.

Price: £18.95.
