FAQs
How do I choose the right size?
Select your usual shoe size, but account for the thickness of wading socks. If in doubt, try the boots on with your wading socks before use.
What kind of cleats should I use?
The type of cleats depends on the riverbed. Use cleats appropriate for the riverbed. Consult the manufacturer's guide for recommendations. Simms recommends the Hardbite Star Cleat and the Alumibite Star Cleat.
How do I clean the boots?
Rinse the boots with fresh water after each use. Use a brush to remove debris from the outsole and cleats. Allow them to air dry completely.
How often should I replace the cleats?
Replace the cleats when they show signs of wear, or when they no longer provide adequate grip. This depends on usage and the riverbed conditions.
Can I use these boots for other activities?
These boots are designed for wading. Using them for other activities may damage the boots and void the warranty.

Refer to the manufacturer's warranty information for details. Simms offers a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
