Stuck in my cabana, livin on bananas and blow.
I picked these up at a price that was too good to pass up once I realized that my Orvis Pack and Travels were probably going to leave me with a sprained ankle somewhere deep in the Smoky Mountain backcountry. I'm not sure how the sticky soles will be, I've heard good things but I am starting to think that the opinion on non-felt soles are just as subjective as rod action and everything else in fly fishing. So we'll see - if I feel like I am standing on a greased bowling ball I'll probably just add some of those Simms studs. Hopefully that won't be necessary.
My girlfriend will be very happy that we're no longer going to have midges hatching off the bottoms of my felt boots when I dry them out in the bathroom :rofl::rofl:
Initial Impressions:
Aesthetically, I really like the look of these boots. They're very Comfortable around the house and provide great ankle support. I find them surprisingly lightweight, though the pack and travels are most certainly lighter. I'll report back as soon as I get a chance to take them out on the stream.
