Can these be used for surfing booties? Do they have the same amount of traction as a traditional surf boot? Only ask b/c I am a size 15 or 16.

Hi Ken: I'm not a surfer, but they were very skid resistant when walking on wet decks and metal plates when we were on small boats. They do get a little getting-used-to with the water sloshing around your feet inside the boot, but they were very comfortable to wear. Randy

For sure .. they have a textured bottom that will give you grip. I wear them on fiberglass boat deck with no problem.

This is a "youth" size. I'm not sure if they are made any smaller. If you live close to a skateboard shop I should suggest visiting it to check sizes.

I am a girl and wear 8 and I have no problem but do have work boots. Try cutting a noodle. Like for swimming ) to fit inside your boot if this doesn't work. I think it will do fine though

Yes, these boots would be great in surfing California. I am taking my to another beach at the end of Aug. Well built and good boots

I would use the same ones I bought, the Ultra Paws Durable Dog Boot. My dog drags his hind paws too which makes the tip of the boots wear down so I bought the shoe goo to help protect them. I hope this helps you out.

I bought the med size waders and fits me fine. I'm the same size as you with a size 10 foot. With the neoprene booties, you will be one size bigger in a boot.

The soles are not slippery, yes they have traction, I work outside, and I really appreciate having such a nice boot that is not heavy on the feet, comfortable and slips easily over my workshoes, I purchased the large size and maybe could have gone with medium, I take a size 8 1/2 women's work shoe, I have worn them in storms and working in the yard several times, and thank the dots for the boots further the price is right......

I bought them for diving because my boots were too wide for my foot and they worked great for me. And I walked around on the soft deep sand at the beach in Panama City Beach in Florida with them. I didn't notice any sand that had gotten in. I really like them. They fit securely around the lower ankles. I hope this helps.

I doubt the style that we bought would give good traction in packed snow, uphill. However, this company makes a variety of booties and I think there are some designed for snow.

I bet they'd be fine...they stay in place really well when I snowboard. Just make sure you get the correct size.

I don't windsurf, but I see no reason why these boots would not work for that. They are like an aqua-sock with a rubber sole. I love mine and use them at the beach and on my boat.

I would say my feet width are average and the Sloggers fit very well. I wear a short ankle sock with them which makes them fit a little snugger. For the money, I would definitely give them a try. I previously had "Muck Boots" which have gotten WAY too expensive. These boots are cute, do the job well, and are worth the money.

Possibly yes but also possibly no because they are so thick. I only surf, no paddle board so I can't honestly say. What I'd do is buy a set off Craig's List and see. If not resale them....

Whatever size you would normally buy get the same size in these they are true to size.If you take a 9 gaet a 9 and there will still be enough for a thick pair of socks.They come up to the back of my knee just at the bend. I love mine but they are hard to get off,I would recommend a boot puller to make it easier. Enjoy your trip

I would not recommend these for playing Beach Volleyball. These Socks are a great product, but are basically made to wear when using fins. They make getting your foot in and out of the fins a breeze! For Beach Volleyball, I would recommend a water shoe with a harder sole.

Becouse I use mine with and without boots, if I'm wearing booties it's usually 3mm booties from tilos they seem to operate just fine, but my suggestion is to go by local water temperature and I say that becouse the average temp in my area requires up to 7mm for temp. I would play around with some relatively inexpensive booties before making that decision.I would say a low cut or standard booti in height would do you ok
