Korkers?

[Cameron Mortenson]

Anyone have any experience with these wading boots?

[Zach Matthews]

Not to hijack the thread but I’d like to know your (Cameron) and your (everyone)’s thoughts on wading boots in general right now.

I finally wore out a pair of Simms Freestones on this last trip.

I haven’t worn felt for at least six years…I’m a big fan of the Aquastealth soles.

Hey Cameron –

I am way interested in Aquastealths, especially since 1) I get discounts and 2) I already have a set of felts.

🙂 I repaired my Chota’s. I bought a repair kit. I removed the old felt and then used Gorilla glue. I made sure the soles were really tight by using screws to keep the soles secure. When they dried (left to dry for 36 hours) I removed the screws. and just replaced the studs with new ones. I’ve been fishing on the repaired boots at least 3 times a week for the last 6 months without a problem. Silver Doc

I really think it comes down to personal preference…in the past six or so years that I’ve used the Aquastealths I’ve really felt solid wading on all surfaces.

I am a big believer in Aquastealth soles.

Hello…

[mike goicovich]

I have a pair of the “cheaper” ($79) model and have to say that I am very impressed.

I am also in the market for some new boots. I wore out a pair of Cabelas lightweight boots and although I loved em I’ve been talked into buying Aquastealth after reading this post and others. Cameron I think you did a great job of summing up why felt sucks.

Talk about bringing a thread back from the dead…not touched since March…

I saw a few photographs of a new Korker’s boot that was pretty sharp looking.

Second season on my Korkers and going strong… no slippage and minimum wear.

Sorry but I’ve got to give those Korker boots a bit “no” vote.
