These wading boots are lightweight and comfortable for walking distances. I normally wear a size 11.5, but purchased size 13. Glad I did. After a bit of initial discomfort, they have broken-in well and fit perfectly over the booties on my waders. Make sure to tighten the laces a lot for a good fit.
Nice boots. They aren't super heavy but supply plenty of support were you need it. The felt is my favorite sole, grips to slippery rocks really well without sacrificing comfort. I was worried it would be difficult hiking in the felt soles but that doesn't seem to be an issue. the felt has held up well through several days of steady use, so that's another plus. My only regret is I wish I would have gone for a pair with the Boa lace system, but those tend to cost a good bit more so for now, I'll keep tying my laces old school. These are nice boots and I'm very pleased with my purchase
I wear a size 8.5 shoe and ordered the size 9 Korkers. Tried them on at home with a pair of socks on and they were a bit snug, but I was leaving the next morning on an extended trip and they had to do. Well, once I got to the river and put on my waders (with 3mm booties), they were way to small. Ended up losing a toe-nail and my arches ached for a week after. The good news is that I contacted AvidMax and, even after two weeks of fishing in the boots, the customer service rep (let's call her Carla), said no problem, send them back and we'll send you a size 10. I did and she did and I am a happy camper. It remains to be see how long the felt soles last before needing replacement, but the boots themselves are very comfortable (just remember they may run ~one size small as compared to other wading boots) and appear to be of high quality. And the customer support from AvidMax can't be beat. I just bought the felt-soles, but if I had to do it over I'd buy "Kling On" soles too. Not because I want to wade in them (I only wade with felt), but because there are several rivers I fish where, after fishing, I could put on the Kling-on soles for the hike back (thereby saving my felt soles for fishing).
This is my second pair. They are comfortable and rugged. If there is a down side when wet get pretty heavy. Sole selection is great, making them useful in all conditions of wading.
Worked great for fly fishing in cold water
This product is on of the most comfortable wading boot that I ever owned. Felts grip well.
I’ve been creek wading most of my life, however this is the first pair of wading boots I’ve ever used. The traction with the felt bottoms is amazing. I was shocked how much better these are than other water shoes I’ve used in the past. They provide comfort for at least 5 hours, that’s about as long as I’ve had them on at any given time.
