Product Information

The Tusa HS 3mm Dive Slipper (item number DB0204) is a slip-on neoprene dive boot built from 3.0 mm neoprene with a nylon jersey lining and an injection molded sole for super traction. It is a no-zipper boot offered in Black in sizes 04 to 13, and TUSA lists it as suitable for any dive style.

Who it is for

This slipper suits scuba divers, snorkelers and water sports users who want foot protection and warm-water comfort. At 3.0 mm it is aimed at warm-water diving, snorkeling and general water activities, and the molded sole gives you grip when you are moving around wet boat decks, ladders and rocky shore entries. Divers who want fast, fuss-free entry and exit between dives will appreciate the pull-on construction.

Key details

  • Material: 3.0 mm neoprene with nylon jersey
  • Sole: injection molded, engineered for super traction on wet surfaces
  • Construction: slip-on, no zipper
  • Color: Black (BK)
  • Model: DB0204, with SKUs running DB-0204-BK-4 through DB-0204-BK-13

Compatibility and sizing

The HS 3mm Dive Slipper is stocked in sizes 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12 and 13, all in Black. Because neoprene boots add volume around the foot, confirm that your fin foot pocket has room for the boot before you dive it. TUSA does not publish a separate size chart for this model, so if you are between sizes, talk to us before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What thickness of dive boots, gloves, or hood should I choose?

As a general rule, thicker neoprene insulates more, so colder water pushes you toward thicker accessories, but fit, dive length, and personal cold tolerance matter as much as the millimeter number. Divers commonly lose a great deal of heat through the head, so a hood is often the highest-value warmth upgrade for the money. Remember that every added piece of neoprene also adds buoyancy you will need to account for.

How should dive boots fit?

Boots should fit like a snug athletic shoe, with no heel lift and no crushed toes; a little water inside is normal, a sloshing pocket is not. Try them on with the socks you would actually dive, and remember your fin foot pocket has to accommodate the boot. Hard-sole boots protect on rocky shore entries, while soft-sole boots are lighter and pack smaller for boat and travel diving.

How should dive gloves fit?

Gloves should be snug across the palm with fingertips reaching the ends without bunching, since trapped air and loose fingertips destroy dexterity. Thicker gloves are warmer but make buckles, clips, and inflator buttons harder to operate, so choose the thinnest glove that keeps you comfortable in your conditions. Try working a clip or buckle while wearing them before you commit.

How should a dive hood fit?

A hood should seal around the face and neck without restricting your throat or jaw, and lie flat on your head without pulling the mask strap out of position. A loose hood flushes cold water continuously, while an overly tight one is distracting and uncomfortable. Many hoods have a vent to release air trapped during descent, so check yours and burp out any trapped air before you go down.

Why does new neoprene feel so tight?

New neoprene compresses and relaxes with use, so a boot, glove, or hood that feels firm out of the packaging usually settles slightly after a few dives. It should still be snug afterward rather than loose, because neoprene that stretches into a loose fit was probably oversized to begin with. Buy for a snug fit when new, but never for a fit that restricts circulation or breathing.

Do I need to change my weighting when I add a hood, gloves, and boots?

Yes, because every piece of neoprene you add is buoyancy, and a hood, boots, and thick gloves together can shift your weighting noticeably. Do a proper buoyancy check any time you change your exposure protection rather than assuming your usual weight still works. The weight-check procedure is covered in your training, and a dive professional can help you re-do it.

How do I care for dive boots, gloves, and hoods?

Rinse them inside and out in fresh water after every dive day, since they hold sweat and salt more than any other gear, and dry them fully inside-out before packing. Dry them out of direct sunlight and never on a heater, because heat hardens neoprene and weakens glued seams. Store them dry and unfolded, as damp neoprene sealed in a bag is how gear picks up a permanent smell.

What sizes and colors does the Tusa HS 3mm Dive Slipper come in?

It is offered in Black (BK) in sizes 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12 and 13. Each size has its own SKU, running from DB-0204-BK-4 to DB-0204-BK-13 under TUSA item number DB0204. TUSA does not publish a printed size chart for this model, so call us at 888-701-4017 if you are unsure between two sizes.

Does the HS 3mm Dive Slipper have a zipper?

No. It is a slip-on boot with no zipper, so you pull it on and off by hand between dives. The trade-off is that a slip-on needs a snug, correct size to stay secure.

Is 3 mm thick enough for my diving?

A 3.0 mm neoprene slipper is intended for warm-water diving, snorkeling and general water activities rather than cold-water exposure. A 3.0 mm neoprene slipper is intended for warm-water diving, snorkeling and general water activities rather than cold-water exposure. If you dive consistently cold water, a thicker boot is the better choice for insulation.

What kind of sole does this boot use?

The HS 3mm Dive Slipper uses an injection molded sole that TUSA describes as generating super traction. That gives you grip on wet boat decks, ladders and rocky surfaces while walking to and from the water. It is a molded sole rather than a soft unsoled sock, so it adds underfoot protection as well as grip.
