Warm 5mm Wetsuit Boots for Cold Water
The O'Neill Epic RT are 5mm wetsuit boots for anyone who wants to stay on the board longer in cold water with warm, protected feet. The high cut reaches above the ankle, and the round toe keeps your toes together where they stay warmest.
The Fluid Foam lining insulates well, while the stretchy FluidFlex exterior keeps the boot flexible. GBS seams are glued and blindstitched, so water does not seep through.
Autumn SUP sessions on the lake, kiting in strong winter wind or late-season windsurfing: the Epic RT is a warm, comfortable boot for when the water is no longer friendly to bare feet.
Who Are the O'Neill Epic RT Boots For?
The Epic RT is made for anyone who keeps going out when the water gets colder and wants warm feet without a bulky feel.
We recommend them for:
- SUP paddlers and other water sports fans on colder lakes, rivers and the sea
- anyone carrying gear over rocks and pebble beaches
- those looking for a warm, comfortable boot for water up to around 14 °C
O'Neill Epic RT Benefits
Warm feet in cold water
5mm neoprene with an insulating Fluid Foam lining holds heat during long sessions.
Comfortable, no pinching
The round toe gives your toes room, and the stretchy neoprene adapts to your foot.
Easy to put on
Slip them on in seconds, even with cold, wet hands.
Less water and sand inside
The high cut and GBS seams reduce cold water entering from the top and through the seams.
Durable on rocks
Reinforced toe and heel handle walking on rocks and rubbing against the board.
Comparison: Epic RT 5mm vs Mutant ST 6/5/4mm
The Epic RT 5mm is a versatile, comfortable round toe boot for cold water. The Mutant ST 6/5/4mm has thicker neoprene, a Firewall thermal lining and an internal split toe, making it the choice for maximum warmth and stability on the board. Find both among all our wetsuit boots.
Material and Technology
The Epic RT combines two neoprenes: Fluid Foam inside for insulation and durability, and FluidFlex outside for stretch and flexibility.
The seams are GBS (glued and blindstitched): glued first, then stitched only partly through the material, so they keep water out.

Do O'Neill Epic RT Boots Run True to Size?
Choose your usual EU size. O'Neill boots run slightly small, so if you are between sizes, go one size up. The boot should fit snugly so cold water does not circulate inside.
Pull your wetsuit legs over the boots, and rinse them inside and out with fresh water after every session.
Why Choose O'Neill?
Jack O'Neill opened a surf shop in San Francisco in 1952 and built it into one of the leading wetsuit brands. The Epic line brings O'Neill seam and neoprene technology to a more affordable price point.
