Adidas self draining

Wish I could afford a dry suit but my cheap a$$ is gonna tough it for a bit with my farmer John n paddle jacket. Ok keep em coming. So is the zip up the way to go? 3mm or 5mm?

For tough portages, like Mill Creek, Limekiln, or Elk, I wear my running shoes over bear feet.  Adidas Boston Marathon III, or Fila Skeletoes.  The tread is useful over the rocks and I take them off and drain of sand when OTW.

I have neoprene diving boots, but can't stand them.  It feels like marinating the foot in seawater.  The above footwear drains much easier, more comfort.

     Camaro dive boots with zip, thick neoprene socks, sock liners, Sole insoles.  I have skinny flat feet, and wear size 13 shoes (I'd buy 12 1/2's if they made any.) so I can get all that stuff into size 48 booties.  What you wear above the footwear makes a lot of difference on whether your feet are cold - that and the amount of natural "padding" your birthday suit has. I wear a wetsuit with a lot of fleece underneath, and splash pants and jacket on top. 
    I had some NRS lace up "Workboots" that gave great traction over rough terrain, but were cold and a bitch to get on in a hurry.

I was using my NRS booties quite a bit but I've grown to really like my Astral shoes for kayaking, hiking, and daily use

I have $10 walmart water shoes, and $12 wool quickdry socks.  Works for me, my feet do get wet.  Didnt go with boots because these are much more comfortable,  and boots hold water. 




Not the best pic, but its the only one i can find with the most detail
