Solid wet wading shoe
I’ve been loyal to Chaco for years, but needed a close toed option for guiding. Just finished a weeklong the Devils River, and they performed great. Minimal debris gets in and it seems to “hide” in the small holes in the insole, so you don’t have to empty all the time.

Fabulous shoe
These shoes are awesome. I wear a size 12 and bought a size 12. I have a wide foot too. While I haven’t worn them on my raft yet, I love the look and fit.

Excellent Wading Shoe
I’m really happy with these. I didn’t know what to expect, except I did have some reservations. I thought for sure they might rub in all the wrong places. But they fit great, nice and snug. Well made with good quality materials.

Pursuit wading shoes
The newest version of Simms wading shoes are the best ones I’ve used yet. Time will tell whether they hold up well on the long haul. For serious wet walk and wades nothing beats a good pair of real wading boots with the neoprene wading socks but these shoes are great for casual wading or jumping out of the boat to fish.

These things are IT!
These things are amazing they are the IT factor I was missing for wet wading or even normal wading. Light, durable, and a smooth ride. They look great and feel better. Nice work Simms.
