But you could use this boot anywhere you see sharp objects, right? Need not be stingray. Assuming this is the first use case, wish you all the best!


It will help, but the bootie really is fine-tuned to stingrays, in some ways that might not be obvious. Stingrays strike with limited strength, so we measured tons of stingray strikes and designed to stop that. It won’t do much if you put all your weight onto a nail or something.

But if you want a balance of flexibility and stopping stingray stings, we really are the best. Nobody else is even trying, lol, the other options pretty much do nothing, or are encased in steel and not flexible at all.
