Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

My only complaint is that this boot is not wide enough for my foot. It is true to size as far as length, but I have wide feet. When I am wearing my fins they become a bit uncomfortable. However when I am just walking around they are the best pair of boots I have tried out. Good solid lugs that give traction on slippery surfaces and you can walk on rocks unlike other boots.

Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

As an instructor, you can't beat the price for this bootie. Other boootie's on the market dont offer the durability this bootie offers. It's a stiff bootie that not only works great with fins but is perfect for walking around the boat and shore... Enjoy divers !

Wide ankle, toe pressure, good heel
By DigitalDaVinciVerified Reviewer from Phoenix, AZ on 2/24/2008
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Pros:
Hard heel
Cons:
Poor Fit
Describe Yourself:
Beginner
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

I didn't get to test these in water because I'm returning them but I was very disappointed to find that they are too snug in the toes and the ankle opening is very wide which would allow a lot of water in easily.

I do wear 8.5 and went down a half size after it has been recommended to me since no one makes dive boots in half sizes.

If you wear a full size and have large ankles, it seems like a sturdy boot that would keep your feet from getting poked by marine life.

Service & Delivery comments:

Delivery was prompt on my entire gear set and leisure pro has so far been very responsive. (haven't returned the boot yet)

I originally bought another brand which looked like Deep Sea but had none of the fit, durability and versatility these have. Not only are they a great dive boot but they can be worn on the dive site like a pair of shoes.

Use these boots in 72 and 68 degree water every week in complete comfort. Love the shoe like bottom. They provide complete protection on rocks, shells, and nice to walk around in. Almost like wearing waterproof shoes.

Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

I wouldn't go as far to say poor craftsmanship. But I have gone through 2 pairs. On the first the zipper broke, but it was replaced. The second pair had a seam break at the bottom. Im on the third pair and it is holding up really well. 2 of my buddies have the same boots and have had no problems.

Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

Overall it seems like a good product; however, I'm a little disappointed with the fit. I've owned several pairs of dive boots over the years, and I always purchase size 10. These boots fit more like a size 11.

Comments about Deep See Deep See 5mm Mens Manta Boot:

I just got up from being laid up for a week with a bad foot, caused by weak arches. I bought these and went diving. After a 3-dive day and a lot of walking while carrying equipment, my foot feels better tonight than it did this morning. Thanks USD and Deep Sea. This thing wears like a shoe not a bootie.
