The 5:10 Canyoneer II boots
This is my first impression review of these superb kayak boots
Firstly the official specifications
-Synthetic leather, with nylon mesh and neoprene
- Buckle and strap Closure System
- Co-Molded Stealth® C4/S1 soles

the first thing you notice is the quality of these superb boots they are made from only the finest materials they are very light weight and solid construction they were originally made for Canyoneering but are fantastic for kayaking they have everything.
They are very comfortable to wear light on your feet drain well and offer maximum support and protection to the wearer.



The boots fasten with a wide Velcro ankle support and 2 plastic buckle straps which give maximum comfort and support



The clever design of the boots allow water to drain away very quickly when worn
And the high ankle support gives maximum support to the heel



The soft neoprene material on the high ankle support has Velcro on the inside front so when the boots are donned they can be fastened easily and snugly this help a lot with getting the boots on and off.



With the wrap around ankle support a great advantage is gained because you are able to open the ankle support wide. It’s no problem getting your foot inside the boot even when wearing a dry suit with socks and taking them off is just as easy



The material on the sole is a special rubber that is soft to touch yet tuff its thick enough that you wont feel every stone on the beach and the grip is amazing even on wet rocks .

I think we have found the ultimate kayak boot with the canyoneer 510 mk2
They offer everything we have been looking for good grip. Sturdy sole .fantastic comfort and you can get them on and off easily.
They come in all sizes including half sizes.
These boots can be used both summer and winter.
The retail of the canyoneer 510 mk2 boots is £75.00 which is fantastic value for the money they are available From paddleworks

they really are fantastic guys while you are ordering them get yourself a pair of palm ti socks to go with them £15.00 they are brilliant and really feel right with these boots .

That looks like a great find Terry - they appear to resolve all the shortcomings of the Typhoon Rock Boot I reviewed recently - open up design with straps to tension to ease getting them on - they look exactly what I was looking for!
Hours searching sites here and in the US and they were just up the road! Internet's a great thing but it's not foolproof!

Hi all
first post here; I'm interested in these boots, I wear Palm Combi Bib salopettes dry pants and the fabric socks are quite big, so I have to wear neoprene boots a size larger than normal.
Can you tell me if these are 'big' fitting boots, ie really roomy to allow for drysuit socks? or should I go for a size bigger than normal?
cheers
Mike

Hi Mike.
These boots are now about £80.
Surflines are selling them on Ebay £75+£5 postage.
Give them a call and they will put you right size wise. Tell them you are a forum member and you should get some discount.
Good luck
Steve
