U have to be carefull wit alot of stuff hangin off ya when u get IN the water.its just more stuff to strap u too the bottom.Best is to keep it simple.Less is more.A good dive knife can save ur life.Lots of guys like the henderson Hyperstretch.In 5 mill like it has been said its easier to cool off when u get cold its impossible to shake the chill.Lots of times in the water ur ok its when u get out to fish on a rock the insulating layer of water between ur body an the wetsuit leaves that u get cold.I do the dive sock wit a pair of Chota's but I'm lookin for another boot as the chota's get heavy.an after 3 yrs are at the end of their life.Those boots lap posted look like something to try.some guys like studded boots for RI surf they look OK as korkers can be a pain in the A on some rocky area's.I think LL bean makes a pair with a lifetime warranty.IMO wetsuiting is the safest best way to access some spots that u would not think of goin to in waders.But be carefull if u put a top like a aqua skins on it traps waterthe rubber gaskets in the arms an the waist will let water in an when u get out all the sudden u have ten gallons of water in ur shirt.when u get ur suit I reccomend doin a dry run wit no tackle to see what its like an learn ur limitations.everyone is different.
