Poseidon Drysuit Boot Maintenance

[Amy B-G]

I have a pair of the Poseidon One drysuit boots and am concerned about the zipper breaking down. Is there anything I can do (besides keeping clean) that will help prolong the function of the zipper? Should I be lubricating it with something? It's a small YKK waterproof plastic zipper.

Clean it gently with a toothbrush and some warm water if it is dirty and then lube it the way you would a drysuit zipper.

I wear these at work and have never had a zipper problem. I go through 2 pairs a year due to sole wear. '

To be fair, they never see sand... so maybe that could create a zipper problem.
