Scubapro Neoprene Delta Short 3mm
When diving with fins, a diver always needs neoprene socks, even in relatively warm water. The diving socks not only protect against cold, but also provide support for the fins, protect against abrasions caused by the foot part of the fin with each kick, and also protect against injuries on the way to the dive site.
Divers who do not like to wear high neoprene boots in warmer waters have the option to switch to short neoprene socks that only reach above the ankle, making them more comfortable to wear in warm temperatures.
In our online dive shop, you will find such short neoprene socks - the Scubapro Delta Short neoprene socks made of 5mm or 3mm neoprene, which are lightweight slip-on shoes specifically designed for diving in warm water.
When diving in cold water, these short neoprene shoes from Scubapro alone are not quite optimal, as they leave a small area around the diver's ankle unprotected, which is very susceptible to cold. For this purpose, high neoprene boots, with a high shaft that allows for a good overlap of the dive suit cuffs, are more suitable and provide much better cold protection. Divers who want to wear such short neoprene socks like the Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene shoes in cold water can provide additional cold protection by wearing neoprene socks inside the neoprene socks. You can also find neoprene socks in our online dive shop.
The Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene socks are made of elastic 3mm neoprene and are coated with a skin-friendly textile layer to ensure high wearing comfort while diving. Despite being quite short and only reaching up to the diver's ankle, the Scubapro Delta Short 3mm socks are still excellent as socks for diving with fins, as they have a very good fit and a secure fit on the diver's foot, guaranteeing a stable hold of the fin. The robust and non-slip rubber sole of the Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene socks has an extra wide sole edge in the heel area, which serves as a support for the fin strap while diving.
The Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene socks are also a good alternative for divers who want to do without zippers and Velcro fasteners, or for divers who have slightly thicker calves and have difficulties with the high shaft of regular neoprene boots.
An additional benefit of the Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene socks is that they can also be used as beach shoes, which can be interesting for snorkelers or divers who dive from the beach. The snorkeler or diver can comfortably walk to the water with their short Scubapro Delta Short neoprene socks and slip directly into the fins without having to change their shoes and leave their beach shoes on the shore. Therefore, the Scubapro Delta Short 3mm neoprene socks are suitable not only as socks for diving, but also as socks for snorkeling with fins, i.e. socks for fins with an open foot part.
