Footwear

Fit tip: Pelagic deck boots run half a size larger than your typical shoe size — allowing for thicker socks, optional insoles, and preventing cramping during long days on the water. Available in US men's sizes 6 – 14.

Between sizes? We recommend sizing up for layering and movement on the boat. Still unsure? Get in touch — we're happy to help you nail the fit before you order.
