Questions about this item:
Shopper Why Did You Choose This?
MAURICE P Like the hard sole
LAUREN S hard sole, good grip, I love tham
DON K good sturdy boot at a good price. both my daughters and I dive these booties.
goyo a I wear regular booties size 9 but since these booties run big I guess I would order size 8, my biggest concern is they fit inside the foot pocket of my Mares Avanti Superchannel. Any suggestion?
RAINER O I ordered my boots one size smaller than my shoe size and they fit fine. I can't speak to your question regarding fitting in a foot pocket.
GARY R i wear a Mares Avanti Quattro. They fit just fine in those.
ROBERT W The fit is the fit. Ordering a size smaller just means it will actually fit your foot. The room you have in your fins will be a result of how much larger than your bare foot size the fin pocket is. The thicker the boot and the more substantial the sole the larger your fin pocket needs to be. I can say that I have a much larger fin I use with these boots because of the robust sole.
PATRICK S Goyo, you are correct in that they run a bit big - I wear a 10 1/2 shoe and ordered size 10 in the bootie. They fit well. Unfortunately the soles of the bootie are quite thick. I have a pair of Mares Raptors, regular and the Mares booties are difficult to get in and out. While getting the fins on are not a problem it can be a challenge when taking them off in preparation to climbing a non-fins- on ladder. If you are a big shore diver it probably wouldn't matter (the thick soles are great if walking on a rocky beach) but for me (lots of boat diving) it became a deal breaker. They are well constructed and comfortable but just realize they will be a tight fit with most normal fins. Hope this helps !! Safe diving to you !!
Shopper I wear a 12.5 and my wife using a 10 shoes.
What would be the best fit for us for this dive boot?
BOYD J I bought then for my son he likes his footwear to fit loosely I bought 1 size larger and they fit him well if you are going to dive in cold water you might consider going even larger
GARY R I also wear a 12 - 13 depending on the shoe. The size 11 fit me perfect. These booties run at least 1 size larger. I have a friend that wears a size 14 shoe, and we purchased a size 12 for him. It fits him great.
Kevin L I am a male who wears a 10.5 shoe size. Would a size 10 be the best fit? Has anyone used these boots with the Apollo split fin? Do they fit inside the foot pocket okay?
NEIL S Kevin, they run big, so a size 10 should be just fine. My wife and I both have these boots and Apollo fins and they work just fine.
ROBERT S A 10 should be fine. They are very tight in my Mares Raptors but I dont know about the Apollos.
SHAUNA L I am a woman who wears size 9 in women's shoes and I got a size 8 in these boots....I would recommend a size 11 for you though ...not a size 10. I use Apollo bio split fins with the spring strap and these boots are awesome....they fit great and I would recommend them to anyone. They are great for shore diving too since they have a nice and think sole.
SETH K Same shoe size, but I bought mine a few years ago. I originally bought a 10 and actually had to exchange them for a size 9! Love these compared to my other boots and a 9 fits perfect (no toe rub either). Not sure if Mares has made any sizing adjustments from my (older) purchase time frame, but I believe many other users were complaining about them running quite big.
As far as Apollo's, I use Jet fins and had to go up considerably in size so these boots would fit. The larger fins (i.e. added travel weight) remains my ONLY negative. These boot's soles are THICK, which I personally rate as one of the highest requirements for my diverse trips.
All around many pluses, the main being they're amazing for comfort and I've used them all over the world in many terrains without a single worry about discomfort or puncture. But you'll probably need to go up a size in fins (at least one, maybe two depending on brand/style).
EDWARD J Size 10 would work fine, split fins are a scam, it is something more a dive shop can sell you that does not do a thing to help you dive better. I bought a pair of apollos 9 years ago and a 14 year old was kicking my but time and time again. Turtles or OMS are the best all around fins.
I get in over 300 dives a year and do salvage work, sold a 150 year old ship anchor to day for $4500.00 and that was number 41 for ship anchors that I recovered or helped with.

Shopper i am 10.5 shoe size, i suppose i have to buy a size 10 boot. will a size 10 boot fit in a mares avanti x3 regular size fin?
CHRIS S I suggest buying an 11 yes and it
will fit
GARY R In my opinion these are the greatest booties ever. They run big. I wear a size 12 or 13 shoe, depending on the maker. I wear a size 11, in these. I have a buddy that is the same. He wears a size 14, and he wears a size 12 in these booties.
Brandi W I am a true size 6, medium width, in women's shoes. What size would I need to order in these dive boots?
My husband wears a men's 8 1/2. What size should we order for him?
SHAUNA L I think their sizes are men's sizes. I wear a womans size 9 shoe and I got these in a size 8 and they fit great! I love these boots, they are the bomb when it comes to shore diving. The sole are fantastic to climb over rocks with, you will not be disappointed.
I would probably get yourself a size 5 and your husband a size 9. Hope this helps.
Shauna
PATRICK S I have found that these boots run a half size too big. Order a half size smaller and they should be fine. The width runs true. These boots have thick soles so are good for walking (shore dives) but may fit tightly with your fins. LeisurePro is great about returns and should be able to help if the fit is not correct.
Laird B Does anyone wear these with a foot pocket fin instead of an open heel strapped one? I'm not sure if they'll work because of the heel.
WALTER M Hi,
I would really doubt it because the boot is pretty thick. They fit very snug with my open heel Aeris velocity fins. They are great boots, but I think open heel fins would be the way to go with these.
Hope this helps,
JOANNE W Nope, soles are way too thick and square. You will have to use those thin soled, rounded boots or neoprene sox or lycra sox with full foot fins
MATTHEW B I use it with the strap and open heal.
Bob M No, they won't fit on a pocket fin. They are very thick and not flexible enough to fit into the pocket. But they work great on on open heel.
GEORGE O I tried once, but the white trim around the bottom of the boot was too rigid.
JOE M The Mares Boot is best worn with an open heel fin. These 5mm boots were a great buy for me and true to size. I wear them with the open heel Tusa Fins... Happy Diving..
Melissa W Female (regular shoe size 9)
What size boot should I get?
MATTHEW B Go at least 1 size less then your regular shoes.
They were very helpful on the phone. You may try calling them directly.
Good luck!!
BRIAN H My girlfriend and I both purchased Mares Trilastic 5 mm Dive Boots in October and dove with them in Bonaire in November. We love them. My girlfriend's shoe size is 7-1/2 to 8 and she purchased a size 6. She said they fit her perfectly. For a women's size 9, I think I would go with a 7. You don't want them too tight, and a little loose won't hurt. Make sure your fins are open heel and will accomodate the boots. Have fun!
STEVE A I ordered my correct shoe size and they fit well but I wear neoprene socks with the boots as well
JAMES R I wear a size 12 in mens and the size 12 boot was perfect. I do not know if you are talking about men or women's sizes but if they sell them in both get the same size.
They are great as they have a great tread on the bottom for the boat deck. Happy diving!!!!!
NEIL S I recommend size 8. My wife and I both purchsed these one size smaller and they're fine.
Shopper I am European size 41, and my wife is European size 37, what sizes should we order? Thank you!
CHRISTINE S I am a German size 40 (women's) and bought the boots in size 7. They fit perfectly.
MAYSHAN G Hello,
I wear an European size 42 and got the boots in a size 9 and they fit great for dive boots.
My wife is a European size 36.5 and got the boots in a size 5 and loves them. Hope this helps.
Shopper I'm shoe size 10 but after reading all comments about this boot being too big will it be good to get the number 9? Also will they fit on my fins Mares Avanti Quattro size regular? the sole seems to be too thick and i want to make sure they will fit inside my fins.
ZACHARY Z I'm a 10.5, so I ordered an 11 and they are a little big. A 10 would have fit way better. I ended up getting some neo socks and that did the trick. I actually perfer wearing them with the socks now. If you're on a boat, you can dive with just the socks, as I find it to be a little more comforntable. With shore dives however, the boots are a must. I used them a lot in the Caribbean (lived on St. Kitts two years) and they have held-up quite well. Still being used with no problems. Take care of them! Soak in a bucket of fresh water after every use so that the zipper doesn't salt-up. Allow to fully dry. They can get a bit smelly if you put them up damp.
I have Avanti Quattro, size large, fins and they are a tight fit. It takes some effort to get them on and off.
Hope this helps everyone!
COLETTE W I have worn this boot for over a year. I purchased it about a half size smaller than my shoe size. (I wear a 5 1/2 shoe, bought a size 5 boot). I have had no trouble getting them into my fins- fins which I also wear with other boots that have a smaller sole. I really like the boots, as they are comfortable to walk in, getting to and from the dive sites over rough terrain.
STEVE A i wear a 12 and got a 12 and they are fine for me. I also wear neoprene socks to prevent blisters just out of habit and they are not too loose or too tight.
Steve
PATRICK S These boots do run a bit large. I am a shoe size 101/2 and I ordered a size 10 in the boot. They fit but if they had come in a 91/2 I would have ordered those. If you are a shoe size 10 then I would suggest the 9 boot. However, you will have problems with the thicker soles on this boot. I also have Avanti Quattro regulars ( and Raptor split fin regular ) and while my foot will go into/out of the fin, it is only with a great deal of struggle. While I believe Mares makes great products, I just think they got the sole a little thick on this particular boot. If getting your fins on/off quickly (boat dives) is important to you I would go with a thinner soled boot. Hope this helps !
JOANNE W You failed to mention if you are male or female, but I am female with size 8 1/2-9 shoes and I wear a size 7 boot, which is the same size of men's shoes that I wear. The sole is very thick and I bought them to wear with size large fins because I like the larger blade sizes.
I use size large Atomic split fins.
Anyway, the boot does have a big thick sole and are very comfy. I tried them in my old size regular Quatros just now and they DO fit, but just barely. Anything bigger than a size 7 would be too big for the regular Quatros I'm afraid.
Shopper I wear a mens 9, what size should I order?
LeisurePro S I would recommend the size 9.
Shopper I wear a women's 5 1/2, what size should i order?
LeisurePro S I would recommend a size four.
Shopper I wear a women's 7 1/2-8 normally. Should I get the 6 or 7?
LeisurePro S I would recommend the 6.
Shopper I wear a Men's size 10-10 1/2 size shoe, what size boot should i order?
LeisurePro S I would recommend a 10.
Shopper I wear a womens size 9-9 1/2. What size should I order and what size fins would I need? (Fins would be the Mares Superchannel open heel).
LeisurePro S I would get a size 8 in the boots and a small for the fins.
Shopper I am a European size 36, what size boot should I order?
LeisurePro S Size 6 if a woman, size 4 if a man.
Shopper i am a womens size 8-81/2 what size should i order

Whats in the box:Pair of Boots Following the Trilastic system concept, Mares created the most comfortable boots, engineered to allow the highest control and power transmission during fining action. The boot material differs depending on the area of concern. The ankle incorporates a super-elastic neoprene rubber for flexibility allowing free movement for less fatigue. The lower section uses standard neoprene rubber to ensure warmth. The boot is equipped with an YKK zipper with an internal neoprene seal to reduce water exchange adding additional warmth. Trilastic Boots are built tough with a reinforced toe and heel, rear notch to secure fin strap, and a raised heel to help keep balance when carrying the weight of all your equipment. Boot is 5 mm thick and comes with a 24 month warranty.
