The Vans MTE Surf Boot Split Toe 3mm brings Vans' decades of footwear expertise to the water — 3mm Yulex® natural rubber construction engineered for surfers who want warmth, board feel, and confidence to stay out longer in cold conditions. The split-toe design maximises front-foot sensitivity for accurate toe-side rail control, while the close-fitting anatomical construction keeps the boot in place through critical turns. Material: 3mm Yulex® natural rubber — plant-based, FSC-certified alternative to traditional neoprene; comparable warmth with a lower environmental footprint Design: Split-toe construction maximises board feel and toe-side sensitivity for accurate rail control Fit: Anatomical construction wraps the foot closely — no dead zones or excess bulk; stays put without bunching through critical turns Sole: Reinforced rubber outsole provides grip on slippery deck pads and traction on rocks and reefs Temperature Rating: Suitable for water temperatures in the 50–62°F range when paired with a fullsuit Colourway: Black Sizing Note: Available in US Men's sizes 8–12. Yulex boots tend to run true to size — for a snug surf fit, stay true to size; if wearing thick wetsuit socks, size up half a size. Boots should fit snugly without pinching but with no dead space at the heel. Care: Rinse inside and out with fresh water after every session. Turn inside-out to dry fully. Store away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
