ION Ballistic Socks 3/2 Round Toe

The ION Ballistic Socks 3/2 Round Toe represent the absolute pinnacle of ION's footwear technology. While the Plasma range offers great value, the Ballistic series is built for riders who refuse to compromise on protection or warmth. The standout feature is the Aramid (Kevlar) outsole , which is practically "bullet-proof" against the sharpest reef, mussels, or hidden rocks, all while maintaining a remarkably thin profile for an unmatched board feel.

Thickness: 3mm (Body) / 2mm (Flex zones).

In ION's cold-water accessories range, the Ballistic name points to the more protective, more rugged end of the line-up. Choose it if you ride harder, launch off rough ground, or simply want something that feels more robust under regular use.

FAQs

This is best suited to riders who want to extend their comfort window in cooler water and wind without jumping straight to the bulkiest option available.

Not always. The right choice depends on your local conditions, how cold you personally get, and how much board feel or dexterity you want to keep. Many riders are better off with the lightest option that still keeps them comfortable.
