booties inside or out?

[jayarcarlos]

Ok, I was just wondering if booties were supposed to be worn outside of the full suit or tucked under the full suit? When its under it usually stretches the ankle area of my suit and if its outside, water gets inside the bootie. I just want to know what everyone else does.

inside, gloves outside

Gee, tough choice, stretch wettie or cold feet - just remember why you got them in the first place!

Yeah huh. Well it stretches but it seems to go back to its original shape after it dries but over time i'm thinking it'll be more permanent, plus the seams start to come off.

Inside with the booties (streamline), gloves on the outside

Inside the wetsuit..

Boots are deffo and inside unless you want to be searching from them then they fly off after filling up.

Some gloves go better inside tho.. depends if they are strapped.

HA HA Yeper one dunk and whoosh off they go nothing like loosing your booties in the surf.

yep my gloves go on the inside or they fill with water and boots inside too

Still inside. tho i don't think i've ever seen a strapped boot! unless its for a dry suit.

I thought a strapped bootie was something like this one:

Well how about that...

[essex sucks]

yeah my old pair had straps too

[Broosta]

100% boots and gloves inside wetsuit. With or without straps.

[Mirx]

Agree, defo both inside for me.

[northswell]

Both inside

anyone notice the inside/inside folks are all here in the uk.........when its cool water surfing, you learn what keeps the heat in pretty quick. on my first uk surf i had boots and gloves on the outside, within an hour i was back in the car!!!

I am going to try some more gauntlet style gloves that are strapped for this season tho, will be interesting to see if I can get away with them outside. would be hella easier to get them off at the end of a sesh

[parrysurf]

inside.....no doubt avoid the fill up.
