I like the newest version much better - more durable sole yet still comfortable. I ordered the same size as the older version and it was too small. The newer version is not as flexible/stretchy so I sized up. Makes it much easier to put on but it’s not too long.

New size is working great. Thank you ver much for the awesome product and customer support!

So far so good! Booties are comfortable and sizing is good. The stingray population is double(south Cali, Huntington Beach) so definitely taking every precaution. I will not do my ocean therapy without these boots..

Great customer service Fantastic product

Second pair of booties from Dragonskin. Got two years out of my last pair. Love the new pair. Won’t enter the water in HB without them. Have had no issues since wearing them.

I love my booties..easy to put on..perfect fit. They give me confidence to stride into the water like I used to pre-stingrays. Because I body surf I am still working out fins. Might be nice if dragonskin provided names and sizes of fins that fit large, X-Large, etc..

I am really happy with the new more durable sole. And I am much more comfortable walking out in the surf without worrying as much about sting rays

Great product with excellent customer support. I recommend highly! The booties fit me perfectly, size 7.5 women’s shoe size is a match! They are very comfortable in and out of the water while walking in the sand. The latest version features a heavy duty sole that should withstand walking across sand and rocks before reaching the beach. I purchased an older version which was OK but the latest version is definitely better designed. This company aims to please their customers while protecting our feet from anything sharp on the ocean floor including stingrays.

I am very happy with my new boots and the quality and durability of the new design! I must give a special shout out to Krystal who has been awesome!

Awesome communication and team. Ive been recommending them to my friends out in Huntington Beach

great follow up, R and D, customer service

I bought a pair of these booties for my husband. We spend a lot of time in Baja California, Mexico and Hubs fishes from shore often, where there are also lots of stingrays--especially in the estuary! He has never been stung and I hope neither of us ever will be, but we've seen it happen and it ain't pretty! He LOVES these booties and I was super impressed with the wonderful customer service after the first order was just a bit too snug. Long story short, he now has a pair that fits perfectly and so does his brother, whose feet are just a little smaller, lol! Thanks for making such a fantastic product and for caring about your customers!

I bought my first pair of Dragon Skins last year, and of course the ONE day I didn’t wear them, I stepped on my first — and hopefully only — stingray. The pain was absolutely unbelievable. Needless to say, I now never leave the house for the beach without my Dragon Skins!

I had reached out to the company after noticing some wear/holes developing in the bottoms of my original pair, and I was so impressed with how responsive they were. Michael communicated with me directly, was incredibly kind, and genuinely seemed interested in customer feedback and improving the product.

Even better, they’ve clearly been listening. The newer version has a solid bottom with traction, improved zipper pulls, and wider, more comfortable straps across the top. The design feels like a significant upgrade from the original pair.

This is also just one of those products I now tell everyone about. After experiencing a stingray injury firsthand, I consider Dragon Skins incredibly cheap insurance against ever having to go through that kind of pain again. Great product, thoughtful improvements, and genuinely stand-up people behind the company. Highly recommend!

Love my DragonSkins!!! I feel so safe in them and they are so comfortable!!

These are a significant improvement over the V1s. They have a durable sole and are incredibly comfortable.

I use them for SCUBA diving as well as boogie boarding.
