Only had the Orvis Silverline bootfoot waders. Been treated well by them so far. Never had stocking models on before. Boot foot limits hiking ability, no question, but I wear two pair of socks to take up the extra room. I think they run large in the shoe size. Extra socks help with ankle chafe, which I have found to be very minimal. Have to give Orvis the thumbs up.
That said, they'll probably leak half of Mass Bay first time out this year
