No tear outs? Sorry for all the questions...am getting ready to replace my Korker Convertables...I like my felt Ultra Lites but these are pre-studded Ultra lites and the pictured studs in the catalog don't look like they will do the trick on bubble weed or any salt vegetation for that matter. Korker studs always worked just fine.
Thanks in advance...Doc
Dr Fish, you will feel ten years younger with the Wearbars, really. I cannot stress enough how sweet these are when compared to Korker sandals (not comparing to Korker boots for which I have no experience with).

Yes, the Cabelas boots have small holes that their studs (suck) would use and the thicker wearbars go right in. Use a ratchet to put them in and get some washers - one per wearbar - to help the wearbar stay a little straighter.

I wore mine probably 75 time last year and lost two.
