Don't go that route. They weigh a ton, they are very wide (which throws you off balance in bad footing), have too much ankle padding for good support, and the hard soles and stud pressure make them very uncomfortable to stand still on a rock for anything more than a few minutes. Cost a ton as well. Seem like they will last much longer than felt, but the misery involved leaves me unsure it is worth it.

Thanks for this advice,,,, Was thinking about this but not now,,,,
I have the Korker Ultra Lites... Not a problem with them at all and had them all last season,, I wore for them for 7 nights at Cutty and many trips to Block, lots of walks in the sand to Naps, among all my other fishing,,,,,,, No problems with durability or the soles falling out,,,,,, It was easy to keep a spare set of spike soles in the car just in case but never needed them,,,
The only thing I did not like was it seems like they need just a few more studs on the sides around the wide part of your foot,,,
