Orvis PRO Wading Boots

Waded three miles of rocky tailwater today and my feet never once felt like they were going to slide out from under me on the mossy boulders. The Michelin sole is a huge step up from my old boots, and they broke in faster than I expected for something this stiff.

The Michelin outsole grips slick river rocks better than any boot I’ve owned, so I stopped sliding around on my first trip out. They’re stiff out of the box, but after a few wades they’ve broken in nicely and feel solid on uneven ground.
