Hey guys,
I've just gotten a new pair of waders and they are the ones with te neoprene sock, so I'm going to need a wading boot for them. I'm just wondering what people here use? I'm assuming any hiking boot/shoe that drains will be suitable, is this correct? I'm looking more towards a boot as I plan to do a bit of walking in them.
Cheers

Re: Wading boots
Hiking boots should work okay as one of my mates uses them with his waders. I have a pair of Korkers wading boots that have interchangeable soles,
and have found them to be perfect for my river fishing. They come with a rubber grip sole and a pair of felt soles.

Re: Wading boots

Re: Wading boots
I have felt soled riverworks boots and the way they grip mossy algae covered logs and rocks is absolutely mindblowing

Re: Wading boots
Those look real good mate. They look like they are waterproof or do they drain the water out?meppstas wrote:Hiking boots should work okay as one of my mates uses them with his waders. I have a pair of Korkers wading boots that have interchangeable soles,
