drysuit question

[clifftondiver]

Ok guys/girls maybe you can help me. I just purchased a Whites off of this very same message board and need a pair of boots to wear with it (i do mostly shore diving here in Monterey and Carmel). I think I like Whites and their Altera boots. My question is how much bigger do I need to order the boots to compensate for the suit feet and the thermal socks (also Whites)? I wear an 11.5-12 in normal shoes. Thanks for your help!!

Buy the same shoe size you'd normally wear.

I wear size 10's and the size 10 EVO3's work great.

Size 14 shoes and size 14 Rock Boots, with my TLS 350. You will however, find yourself buying a larger set of fins to fit your new drysuit boots. almtree: Bob

I just bought a Fusion DS but did not want to buy new fins as I already own two pairs and the Whites Evo and Altera are great but are bulky and require large pockets for the fins. I went with Bare Trek Boots, they run big, so I am size 11 and got size 11 (++ roomy enough). They have decent support, hard sole and easily fit my Tusa split fins.
