Can waders be converted?

Here in Vermont felt bottom waders are illegal starting April of this year. They transport "rock snot" didamo algea too well, and that stuff is terrible for a stream.

So between my son and me we have 2 pairs of chest waders and 2 pairs of hip waders, all with felt bottoms and all in excellent shape. I think they are all Orvis silver label. To replace will cost about $1,000.

Anybody know if there is a way to convert them to studs? Is the boot bottom the right shape? I see stud kits on line....but can I get the felt off?

Any thoughts?
