Description
The Surge X Waterproof Race Shoe represents a revolutionary breakthrough in marine footwear. As the first waterproof race shoe designed for competitive sailing, it solves a fundamental challenge that has defined deck footwear for generations: the choice between agility and dry feet. Built for racers who demand both speed and protection, it delivers waterproof performance in a lightweight, race-ready platform.
Developed from the bestselling Surge race shoe platform, the Surge X carries forward the proven sole and construction sailors love, while introducing breakthrough waterproof technology. A breathable waterproof membrane is fully sealed around the shoe, creating complete protection that keeps water out without sacrificing comfort during extended racing. The integrated waterproof gaiter with weatherproof zip closure and fully taped seams provides additional defense in spray-heavy conditions, while a neoprene ankle opening with Velcro® adjustment adapts across a wide range of foot shapes.
The proven hybrid rubber outsole delivers confident grip and exceptional stability across wet decks and mixed surfaces, supporting secure footing during maneuvers, transitions, and high-intensity racing. TPU toe and side panels increase abrasion resistance in high-wear zones, while a pull-tight lacing system with stow-away tongue pocket keeps the fit secure and streamlined.
Positioned between traditional deck shoes and heavier offshore seaboots, the Surge X fills a critical gap for competitive sailors. Whether racing yachts, keelboats, or sportsboats in inshore and coastal conditions, or cruising with waterproof protection in a lightweight race platform, this revolutionary shoe delivers performance without compromise. At just 410g, it represents a new category in sailing footwear.
