Being able to walk straight from water to bar (or other refreshment establishment) does away with having to faff around with chopping and changing back into normal kicks. Made from algae based Bloom foam they’re comfy on your tootsies, environmentally friendly and great looking.

ION’s hi-vis version will certainly get you noticed which is great when out at sea during long open distance paddles. Even inshore wearing one is no bad thing. Featuring a vivid luminous yellow colour and reflective band it will, of course, keep your bonce nice and warm when mercury levels do drop as well as making you highly visible.
