Abstract
A water purging system for a flexible diving boot, including a first layer of flexible material located adjacent the interior of the boot in contact with the foot of the diver. The first layer of flexible material having at least one first aperture for passing a volume of water away from a diver's foot, outward through the material. A second layer of material is located on the opposite side of the first layer from the interior of the boot. The second layer has at least one second aperture for passing a volume of water from one side of the layer to the other side of the layer. The apertures prevent an influx of water into the boot when the diver's boot is in the water. The boot allows outflow of water from the boot, when the diver exits the water and either walks about on a solid deck or places the boot in a heel-down position against a supporting surface.
