Setup, Compatibility & Care
Sizing: Ensure you select the correct size. Refer to the Simms size chart for accurate measurements. Consider wearing the socks you'll use while fishing when trying them on.
Lacing System: The BOA system tightens with a simple turn of the dial. To loosen, pull the dial outwards and release. Avoid over-tightening.
Sole Compatibility: Make sure the sole type matches the wading conditions. Felt soles are suitable for slippery, mossy environments, while rubber soles are better for mixed terrain.
Care: After each use, rinse the boots thoroughly with fresh water to remove any dirt or debris. Allow them to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight. Check the soles regularly for wear and tear.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
