Many launch spots for kayaking are stoney or rocky (at the best of times!), something which neoprene socks and most wetsuit boots simply cannot handle. Thin soles mean one thing: pain when walking!
I have worn many boots, and am now glad I have the Lomo Aqua Boot. At just £23.99, they are reasonably priced, and a great pair of kayak boots. With a thick grippy sole, they are perfect for most kayaking, particularly in stony or rocky areas, where climbing or clambering may be necessary. You should however note that the thick sole does take a small amount of getting used to, and obviously does not have as much flexibility as other boots; this does mean you may need to practice getting into your boat.
Other features include a good zip, and a reinforced heel and toe.
The boots are comfy however you should note that the sizes are generous. If you are looking for a good pair of boots at a reasonable price, then I would recommend the Lomo Aqua Boot.
