Description:
A water shoe that works on the boat and on shore. The Astral Brewer 3.0 (NRS item 31007.02) is a quick-drying, draining water shoe with sticky G.ss rubber, now with better step-in comfort, a more secure heel lock for swims and an even grippier outsole. A wide toe box fits over dry suit socks, which makes it a popular pick for swiftwater teams, boat crews and guides. See all of our water rescue footwear.

Questions about the Astral Brewer 3.0
How does Astral unisex sizing work?
Each size lists the men's and women's equivalent. M9/W10 fits a US men's 9 or a US women's 10. The chart also shows UK, EU and centimeter equivalents.
Can I wear the Brewer 3.0 over a dry suit?
Yes. The wider toe box adds room over dry suit socks, on uneven ground or inside a kayak.
Does the Brewer 3.0 drain water?
Yes. Holes in the front and back of the midsole drain water, and the hydrophobic canvas upper sheds water and dries quickly.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes. The spec sheet lists Marking Sole as No for the G.SS rubber outsole.
Is the Astral Brewer 3.0 flame resistant?
No. It is water rescue and paddling gear. It is not flame resistant, is not structural firefighting PPE and is not NFPA 1971 certified, so keep it away from fire and high heat.
