One of my fishing partners shredded the Simms vibram soles with the grip studs in one season. He is a big guy so I think that didn't help.
The auger on the 1800 and the 1800r is the same size. Walking on flat rocks and roads will not test the studs. Rocky uneven ground where you may only catch a couple studs is the way test them.
I rolled the 1800rs when I tested them that's why i went with the 1800s in the head waters.

If the grip studs shredded the rubber then I would venture to guess that there is no "perfect" solution for rubber soles.
The grip studs are/were the most superior design for their purpose. Did he lose studs?

Tall fat guys who loo like the guy from goonies shouldnt be the standard. They can break anything. Little fire plug guys also shouldnt be the standard either need to find an average human being to test these properly

Oh jeez. Here we go. Mr standard himself.
You just couldn't wait to bust my balls. Could you ??
Didn't lose studs but they rolled and created little areas under the sole that allowed them to be loose and move easily by touch.
