Nice wadding boots

I have not been on the stream yet. A couple of weeks I will. The overall quality looks great, the fit was perfect, I wear a 10 1/2 tennis shoe. Ordered a 12 and with cotton socks and neoprene footies on my waders they really feel comfortable. Putting the studs in the bottom was so easy. I used my electric driver with the torque clutch turned way down which made the job go quickly. I went back with a hand driver and snugged them up. I’m currently pleases with my purchase.

Nice fit, easy to slip on, comfortable, sturdy

Given the decent price I withheld my opinion. I attached the metal studs to the bottom mixing orvis stud and the ones provided. I then went fishing...after putting on thick wool sock and waders my foot easily slipped into the boot. The fit was great, having greater width resulting in no squished toes which all other more expensive boots caused. I had the most comfortable,secure day in boots while fly fishing! The boots dried and cleaned up nicely. The metal ring in the laces allowed for easy attachment to my waders. I hope they are durable and will last for several years . That's TBD. I size my boots one size larger than my shoe size.

So far so good

Excellent well built wading shoe for the money. Great traction with and without the cleats. I've used them probably six times since purchasing. Wading the south Holston north and south fork TN and VA. I can't attest to durability yet. There isn't a wading shoe made that will last more than a few seasons for me. I'm really tough on wading boots and shoes in general, being 6'3 270. I bought size 12 and they fit perfectly with neoprene socks or sock foot waders. They also drain well and dry relatively quickly. I'll do my best to update at 6 months and 1 year use.*Edit*I've had these wading boots for 7 months now. Used them several times over the summer, fall, and a few winter trips. They performed flawlessly. I didn't even have to install the cleats until I fished the wautauga river, those darn little slippery snails. Thank goodness I left the cleats in my truck on that trip. That being said these boots are grippy with just the felt soles. They give you spiderman abilities with the cleats in. They look brand new as well given the use. I would honestly but them in the same category as the older chota stl wading shoes. The new chotas are garbage, fell apart in less than 6 months. If this company would introduce a speed lace like sims and chota I wouldn't buy any other wading boot.

Runs big, Light boot

Bought the boots since I heard they run big. Normally I wear a 10 or 10.5 so I bought the 10s hoping they would run big since my heavy neoprene waders have big stockingfeet that are over-sized and my currents pairs of wading boots (3) are too tight. The good is they are light and are roomy, I also like that they come with studs as I usually do use studs for grip hiking and wet rocks. Some reviews complained about screws coming out and wearing. If that happens I don't care this is typical of any screw in waders screws come out and every so often you replace a few. The only gripe on these boots is they really don't have any ankle support (but this is typical of lighter weight boots). What I may do is just wear simple ankle compression support braces under socks to help some. Price is okay, not great.

Buy Deep eddy version instead

You better have wide thick feet. Toebox is so wide that there is no ankle support when compared to Deep Eddy pair by Paramount which I rated 5 stars! I wear a 10.5E Hoka which is a pretty wide shoe, but they were still too wide for me.
