Korker 1100 size question
 
I need to pick up a set of Korkers for the woman this winter. Does anyone know how long the 1100 small and mediums are? Not sure off hand what size shoe she takes but I can find out.

Medium Korker 1100s fit snugly on my (mens) size 9/10 wading shoes.
The larges (only ones I could find previously) were so bloody long at the front that it looked like I was wearing flippers......
I feel much better on the rocks with the better fitting mediums.

dont know if this helps but women's shoe sizes can be converted to mens sizes by taking away a size and a half. For example if she takes a size 9 in woman's it will be the same as a size 7&1/2 in men's......

T,
You should base Korker size is on the length of the wader boot NOT shoe size. Wader boots vary in size depending on what model wader she has. Best bet is to measure the boot or better yet take the waders to a shop and try the korkers on them. I have a pair of medium korkers that fit fine on my breathable waders but are too small for my neoprenes - same boot size 10.

DON'T do it!!! You will never have any peace and quiet. I did it about 15 years ago and then she wanted to go with me all the time. "Why can't I go? I have Korkers."
