Stockingfoot Waders

[Duckslayer89]

If you wear boot on waders I highly suggest these. Total game changer. It’s what everyone wears in Xtra tuff rubber boots and they fill up space in your wading boots plus wick moisture away.

I’ve been duck hunting in Simms G3 riparian pattern stocking foot waders and a pair of cheap frogg togg wading boots for two seasons now.

Pros: Much more comfortable to walk long distances in, footwear is more secure in mud.

Cons: You can only layer so much under them, feet get cold easy.

If someone made a stocking foot, neoprene 800g with some insulated wading boots that would be the ticket.

I have always used breathable stocking foot (aka my fishing waders) for duck hunting. Even hunting the middle of the state when it’s in the teens or lower hunting the river.

I use Kroker wading boots because of the interchangeable soles. Cheaper to buy some rubber bottoms wading boots. Felt bottoms are actually kind of a thing of the past with the zebra muscle.

I layer appropriately and were oversized pants on the outside. Feet have gotten a touch chilly but I just change to a thicker/better sock the next day. Lots of practice though chasing chrome and learning how to keep myself and my feet warm.

The biggest thing is having boots big enough to where a thicker sock and still being able to wiggle your toes. I love my wading boots almost to small when fishing so I have the best feel of the bottom of the river. Hunting though I size up. There is no shame in bringing socks/layers in with you to the store to make sure you get the right fit.

Run electric insoles and have toasty feet.
