They are racing at open meetings, training with a squad and starting to hike hard in an Optimist, Topper or ILCA 4, and a floppy sole lets small feet fold around the toestrap. The Gill Junior Edge 2.0 gives them the same firm, supportive platform as the adult Edge, sized for growing feet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLaces let you pull the boot snug along the whole foot, which helps get a close fit on narrower junior feet, and the wide ankle strap locks everything in place. The sole is the stiffest Gill makes, so hiking load spreads across the foot instead of pressing into one spot, and a textured panel across the top grips the strap.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe 4mm double lined neoprene is warm enough for most of the season, with sailing socks underneath for winter training. Laces do take a little longer to do up, so for younger children who still need help getting kitted up, a zip boot is the easier choice. For the junior who is hiking seriously and wants kit that matches their ambition, this is the one.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKids Laced Sailing Boot Features for Junior Racers\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStiffest outsole in the Gill range, spreading hiking strap load across the foot\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLace closure for a snug, adjustable fit from toe to ankle\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWide adjustable ankle strap that backs up the laces and adds support\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMoulded textured panel across the bridge for better contact with hiking straps\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWrap-around natural rubber sole that grips wet decks and will not mark the boat\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReworked rear ankle for easier movement and comfort\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGlued and blindstitched seams to reduce water getting in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMaterials and Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e4mm double lined neoprene, 90% neoprene and 10% nylon\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eColour: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGill style number 969J\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSize Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUK 2.5 to 3.5 (EU 35\/36)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUK 4 to 5 (EU 37\/38)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrom UK 5.5 upwards, choose the adult Gill Edge 2.0, which starts at EU 39\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWear It With\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePair the boots with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hiking-shorts\"\u003ehiking shorts\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hiking-pads\"\u003ehiking pads\u003c\/a\u003e for a proper junior hiking setup, and add \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sailing-socks\"\u003esailing socks\u003c\/a\u003e for colder training weekends.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gill","offers":[{"title":"35\/36","offer_id":55067481407827,"sku":"969J-BLK01-35\/36","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"37\/38","offer_id":55067481440595,"sku":"969J-BLK01-37\/38","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/0995\/0291\/files\/9e4d79b7-dc93-4ecb-9bca-1d5729e0a7b5.jpg?v=1790403908","url":"https:\/\/www.dinghysailingclothing.co.uk\/products\/gill-junior-edge-2-0-dinghy-sailing-boots-in-black","provider":"Dinghy Sailing Clothing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
