Review summary

Hodgman neoprene wade shoes are perfect for flats fishing, warm weather wading and with fins in a float tube. Adjustable cuffs fit snug around your ankle with a hook and loop strap for customization and prevent debris from entering the shoe. The gusseted YKK zipper front allows for easy on and off. Nonslip, non-marking rubber soles ensure stability and protect your toes, sides and bottoms of your feet. The uppers are constructed using 3.5mm neoprene.

Will be testing these babies next month in the Sierra’s (will use with float tube) net month trout fishing.
I have tried them on with my waders and they fit just fine. I ordered one size up to factor in the stocking waders. I usually wear a size 10 so I ordered an 11 in the wade shoe. I like the front zipper in the wade shoe and the strap adjustment. I’ll revisit my posting after my fishing trip.

Comfortable, durable and convenient; these are exactly what I wanted for wade fishing and gigging. Did the job, they seem very well made. Comfortable Good boots for float tube fishing

These went straight to the trash bin. Almost impossible to return things from where I live the size chart says to get them one size larger than your shoe size they are way wrong. I wear an 8.5 shoe and a 10 was way too small. Don’t buy this stuff online take your waders somewhere and try them on if you can find somewhere I sure miss good fly shops.

Patagonia Rock Grip Wading Boot

I'm pleased to report that I love this wading boot from Patagonia and I haven't had any of the ankle problems some other folks were talking about, I just layer a thicker warm sock atop a thin dress sock with these. In fact I found the ankle support to be helpful when hiking rugged terrain and fishing freestone (bowling ball rock size) Patagonia Rock Grip Wading Boot reviews >

Korkers Devil’s Canyon

These Korkers boots upped my salmon river sprinting game more than any other piece of gear I've owned. I've never been so sure footed. Worth the extra dough. The carbide spiked soles were out of stock for a while so I had to use the smaller ones that came with the boots on some tough rocks and slippery shale. They performed better than I Korkers Devil’s Canyon reviews >

Simms RiverTek Boa Boot

I bought these to compliment my Simms G3 Waders, and have not failed to impress. The BOA system is incredibly easy to use, and cyclists or runners may be familiar with it from their own footwear. The best thing is at the end of the day there is no fumbling with cold, wet fingers trying to get laces matted with sand or grit undone. A quick Simms RiverTek Boa Boot reviews >

Simms Blackfoot Boot

These are made by Simms, they are a high quality product . The price is very misleading. Id expect to pay twice as much in a sporting goods store for these and Id gladly do it. I generally wear an 11 to 11.5 shoe so I ordered 12s. They are an absolute steal for under $100. I'm going to order another set as soon as I can for when these Simms Blackfoot Boot reviews >

Simms Freestone Boot

So far a really great boot. Pretty good traction even without the studs or cleats added, and quite comfortable. Seems well-made and like they'll last a while. I wear size 9 shoes and I bought these ones on size 10 thinking of stocking foots would take more room. Wrong, size 9 must fit better. But not every body has the same nailsI've Simms Freestone Boot reviews >

Simms Rivershed Boot

The Simms brand is well known and respected. These boots are light, wide, comfortable and I don't notice any difference in traction in the stream between these and my old felt soled boots. These boots have much better traction on the slippery bank getting into the water. I thought I was going to kill myself with the felt soles I slipped Simms Rivershed Boot reviews >

Hodgman Bear Creek Wading Shoe

The boot is well made, fits well, and has a unique sole that helps with traction on slippery rocks but is still stream friendly didymo.I purchased these early in this year's trout season. These are by far the best budget boot that I have tried. I haven't had the money to drop on a boot that I don't wear every day like a pair of Hodgman Bear Creek Wading Shoe reviews >

Chota Abrams Creek

These Chotas are the most comfortable wading boots I've ever worn. I fish 180 days a year, mostly on the Madison River in Montana, and I've gone through four pairs. You can spend a lot more, but you won't find a more comfortable boot.I bought these for a friend and he used them for the first time today. I asked him how they did and he Chota Abrams Creek reviews >

Chota STL Plus

Great boot, great fit and has held up well. Sometimes it seems like I can't get cinched up enough but they still feel solid & tight in the water.I fish more than 200 days a year, wading hard. These boots can last me 2,3 years with changing the cleats. Best boots in the market at any price. I like one size larger than my street shoes. Chota STL Plus reviews >
