    It’s a shame no one makes a boot with both materials. Simms did make RipRap shoes with rubber rims, felt in the middle. Excellent compromise for those of us who hike distance to get to the water. I bleach my felt soles between streams.

      @@GuideRecommendedThe fact that fishers need cleats to make the rubber grab tells me what I need to know. And the cost of those cleats makes military hardware look reasonable.

    This is very helpful...I've tried a few different felt wading boots but have not found a favorite. Do you have a fave? Thanks.

    When is it time to change out your felt boots

    • @GuideRecommended
      @GuideRecommended  5 місяців тому

      I've only swapped out felt once. It delaminated off the boots (I frozen them by accident when wet.) I've never worn the felt out on any of my boots. 🐟 Tight Lines
