Frequently Asked Questions


Question 1: "What size of Simms wading boots do I need?"

It is popular to go up a size in wading boots as thicker socks coupled with neoprene stocking feet of waders take up a bit of room.


Question 2: "Should I stud my Simms wading boots?"

Although not absolutely necessary, adding additional SIMMS studs to your boots can significantly increase your grip on difficult fishing terrain. We advise trying out your boots and see how you get on first - extra studs can be added to the sole if you feel you want added grip.


Question 3: "Should I buy Simms wading boots with rubber or felt soles?"

We feel rubber will give you allround performance over different surfaces but felt can be very advantageous on slippery rocks. Felt is also a lighter weight sole which can be appealing to some.
