Thousands of divers can attest to the warmth and diver-friendly features of Gold Core. The blend of a high-quality, medium-stretch neoprene, a tough nylon outer layer and a hydrophobic, anti-microbial lining produces an incredibly warm and easy-wearing boot. The best boot money can buy. Made with Henderson's exclusive Gold Core neoprene, this boot will keep you warmer, fit you more comfortably, and keep smelling great even with heavy use. The Gold Zipper Boots feature vulcanized heel and toe caps. Divers appreciate Gold Core from the moment they put it on because donning is faster with its moderate stretch and its super-slick interior. Gold Core allows dive boots to flex freely and takes away the struggle typical of stiff exposure gear. Combined with Gold Core's signature gold lining, boots slide easily over divers' skin. The Gold Core lining has a three-fold benefit when used in dive boots. First, its super-slick, so donning is effortless. Second, its anti-microbial properties make this boot inhospitable to bacterial growth, which puts an end to unpleasant odors. Third, the Gold Core lining provides a great contact surface for your skin,reducing water transfer so your feet stay warmer. The boot's exterior is highly durable and the top is armored with a vulcanized capto absorb friction with dive fins. The Gold Zipper Boot is also outfitted with a durable zip and zipper lock.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 3-MM Gold Core Zipper Boot:

Great sole for walking around. Velcro that holds down zipper is too small so they can come open, but this never caused any problems diving--more of an annoyance. Comfortable in warm water. Have a durable top that works well for protecting toes in large fin pockets (XL ScubaPro Jets).

Comments about Henderson Henderson 3-MM Gold Core Zipper Boot:

Very good warm water boot. Very rugged construction with strong side zipper and thick soles. I use them often walking on 'a'a for shore entry without difficulty. I don't recommend them for cold/temperate diving.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 3-MM Gold Core Zipper Boot:

Sorry I can't agree with the good reviews on this product. I expect high quality from Henderson and love their wetsuits so when I needed new booties, I bought these. I took them on a trip to Australia and PNG so used them for total of 2 weeks, diving 4 times per day. I originally ordered a size 7 and they were too small so I returned for a size 8 which was slightly large. I used them anyway and after the trip they are showing serious signs of wear. Sole is pulling apart from side. I think you can do better for this price.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 3-MM Gold Core Zipper Boot:

I wore a pair of these boots as loners when I was going through my scuba certification. I wore them for hours in the pool and while the rest of me got cold, my feet didn't. They were comfortable and never caused blistering or rubbing on my feet. I have had a difficult time finding dive boots to fit me correctly because I have thick ankles and calves. I generally wear a women's 7 or 7 1/2 and ordered a 5 which fits perfectly. These zip up all the way and are not tight at all. I was so impressed I ordered a pair for myself and have been using them constantly ever since with my open back fins. The rubber on the front and backs keeps the fins secure and prevents movement. I wouldn't think about getting any other kind.

Comments about Henderson Henderson 3-MM Gold Core Zipper Boot:

I tend to dive warm water and some may suggest that this boot is too warm for tropical diving. That is not the case. The design, comfort and fit are good. I have a narrow foot and this boot fits fine. If you have a very wide foot take that into consideration. The only reason I did not rate this boot a 5, was that I am not convinced it is worth the premium price compared to other makers.
