I need neoprene socks to eliminate "sloshy boots". Unfortunately I wear the equivalent of a mens 6 and there are none to be found in sporting goods stores around here. Where can I find some online that aren't expensive and won't kill me on shipping?
 
Gidds, I have some Akona neoprene socks and another no-name brand. I bought mine at the dive shop so don't know an online source. Check out scubatoys.com and see if they've got them. Hope it helps.

Edit: I looked on their website and didn't see any but give them a call.

You can't just go around posting stuff and then editing it later. That's irresponsible ScubaBoarding.
 
Strange time of year to be looking for neo socks...:confused:
Once the water temps went over 50F, the socks came off.;)

I got mine on ebay from this seller, though I dont see the ones I got offered now...

Why do have you sloshy boots and how will neo socks help?

A good fitting boot is a better option. Given that, in the winter months, I wear 2mm socks in my 7mm dive boots for winter diving (diver's direct or LP has them).
 
I am a mutant and I already have the closest thing they make to a "good fitting boot" :rolleyes: Due to the unnatural conformation of my feet all boots are sloshy and wearing a sock will keep them a tad warmer although not actually reduce the sloshing. Additionally I lost a lot of weight last year after I got my good, well-fitting, boots and now they are sloshy and blister me. Yes I know that sounds wierd but it's true. On top of all that I want some freediving fins and I intend to wear the socks under the full foot fin. Thanks for the site recs, now I just have to find a size smaller than 7
