Ultra-durable, high-traction wading boot with Vibram® Idrogrip for trusted river stability

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"The G3 Guide Boot is built to last. The Vibram® Idrogrip outsole grips slick riverbeds better than anything else I’ve worn, and the rugged work-boot construction makes it feel bombproof. I love that it’s compatible with Simms cleats and studs for even more traction when wading tough waters. Whether I’m guiding or just fishing hard all season, this boot keeps me stable and comfortable in any conditions."


Long days in the river demand a boot that won’t back down, and the Simms G3 Guide Boot delivers the durability, traction, and comfort we need to keep fishing. Built with high-abrasion mesh, synthetic and natural rubber, and scratch-resistant overlays, this boot withstands seasons of rugged wading.


The Vibram® Idrogrip outsole with Traction Lug technology enhances wet-slip resistance by 20% over standard Idrogrip, giving us confidence on slick rocks and shifting riverbeds. Compatible with Simms Hardbite and Alumibite cleats and studs, this boot allows for added traction in extreme conditions. Built with traditional work-boot construction and re-soling options, the G3 Guide Boot is a lifetime investment in comfort and stability on the water.

Great boot

They are the most comfortable boots I have had. They work with my wide feet. 😀 While I have a 11 foot, the size and all manufacturers recommend one size over. If I did not always use double neoprene, I think the 11 would work. The hard bit worked great. I do think there needs to br instructions with the boots so you know how much torque. They rock a bit but did not come out in 4 day fishing. Then I was not rock climbing and the driftless is limestone.

Gen 2 G3

After going through two pairs of old style G4s, my initial experience and evaluation of these G3s are outstanding! The stitched soles should add overall longevity and reuse life 😎

Perfect boot for me.

Bought a size larger for my waders to slide in easier and the boots with carbon grips have enabled me to wade some of the slippery streams with better grip. Looks like they will hold up for a few years to come with heavy use.

G3 boots

Boots look great. I use the flats sneakers for wet wading in the summer. Will get more use out of the g3s once it cools off.

Fly fisher

Haven’t had them wet yet but they fit well, look great and appear to be made well with quality materials. I chose them for Simms reputation for quality and durability. Not disappointed.

Sufficient but not comfortable

Boots do their job and do it VERY well but they are not very comfortable on MY FOOT… My hunting buddy says his are super comfortable. I’d buy again but just wish they felt more like wearing a hiking boot

G3 lugged bottom

Half a dozen days on the river, so far so good. 6-8 hr wading trips. Pretty darn comfortable for a wading boot. Always like the Vibrahm soles.
