I don't have the brand you're showing, but I do have
neoprenes with felt bottom boots. Way better than
those horrible green rubber kind that hurt like hell.
Those that have used them know what I mean.

I could of went with the felt bottoms, but I'll probably using them for hunting as well. Also, since I'm relocating to Colorado, I'm sure the rubber boots will work better.

I wear Simms stockingfoot waders and boots or wading shoes. I like the boots and shoes for better ankle support and stability in faster currents.

Simms make a good product. These are the ones I have.

I wear boot bottom for bird hunting only. These are a canvas/ rubber type and hold up really well in heavy brush. Suck to walk in for any distance. Great for use in the blind.

I wear hip waders from hunting upland bird and ducks in marshy areas.

And I wear neoprene in one of 3 weights for fishing with a separate boot standard lug sole. I will never, ever use felt bottom again. Same boots are used with all the neoprenes.
