Undergarment Booties

Post by Tangfish »

A buddy of mine just bought some pillows and some down booties came in the package for free. When I saw them I instantly knew that they'd both be fairly useless for him and probably good to wear under my DUI.

I've got a pair of those ... pretty bulky inside the drysuit.

I've also got a pair of DUI thinsulate booties, which I wore only once for the same reason. I'll probably sell the DUI booties ... eventually.

neoprene. my drysuit has built-in neoprene socks. i wear a wool sock or two underneath and that seems to be fine most of the time.
