This spring Quiksilver is releasing the Ignite Neo - Goo boots and gloves, which the company bills as "the world's first boot and glove to be fully dipped in liquid neoprene." The initial launch features 3mm split-toe boots and 2mm gloves, which are good weights for the shoulder season on the Canadian coasts. There haven't been many new developments in the wetsuit accessory market in recent years, so we'll be keen to check these out when they hit the shops, especially if they live up to the promises of being light, flexible and leak-free.
