FAQs

How do I choose the correct size?

Rinse the boots with fresh water after each use and allow them to air dry.

Can I replace the soles?

Yes, the soles are replaceable. Consult a Simms authorized repair center or a boot repair shop.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

Use wading socks designed for fishing. Neoprene or wool socks are good choices for warmth and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight with wading socks.

Ensure you have the correct size. Consider trying a size up to accommodate the socks, or switch to thinner wading socks.

Make sure the soles are clean. Consider using a wading staff for added stability. Replace worn soles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  3. Wading Socks: Use appropriate wading socks for added warmth and comfort. Consider socks made from materials like neoprene for insulation.
