Why? I had the Redside and loved them until the sides got torn from sharp boulders after 2 or 3 seasons. I got the Buckskin for this year as they alleviate the problem with the Redside by reinforcing the sides.
Going to the beach with some rocks I use the felt sole. Going to boulder fields with or without thick weeds I swap in the studded rubber soles in under 1 minute. Want to kill myself on anything but sand I use the standard cling on sole (yes they really suck and are slick on most surfaces).
These boots are also a hell of a lot lighter than the Cabelas Ultralight 2 when wet and much better quality. UL2 don't last too long around boulders a few nights a week.
I know they Omnitrax 2.0 had issues but 3.0 is excellent IMO. I also stay away from the BOA system boots. Many probs with those so I hear.
