New boots ?
Time for another fishing boot thread!! Unfortunatley I don't think my Simms Headwaters are going to make another season. Since they discontinued the version I have I'm wondering who has their newer boots and how are they holding up?
I know a few guys were less than impressed with some of their new boots because it seemed like the felt changed and it didnt hold grip studs as good as the previous versions. Looking at the Simms site, and their Freestone boots weigh in at 65.6oz ! The guides are 60.8 and Rock Creek 43.2. Seeing as they'll be used for wetsuiting, fishing beaches and the canal I need something that will hold up and not feel like I'm hiking with cinder blocks on my feet! I like the weight of the Rock Creek but I don't think they'll hold up for a season.
What other manufacturers are you using ? I won't own anything by Korkers and nothing with the BOA system. Thanks.
