Awesome boots! best in my review

These boots are great, I normally wear a size 10 in my street shoes and they said the add a size when ordering (11) and they fit perfect. My feet normally feel very tight and cramped with wading boots but not with these, they are very comfortable. I thought they would be on the heavy side because of how Cush they are but they are not heavy at all. I’ve taking they out a few times now and iam a fan! They feel great, they look good, and so far they preform good.

Pros
  • These shoes were lightweight and comfortable. Can't wait to get them on the water
Cons
  • Price point higher than some competitors

Would totally buy these again!

These are the first boots of this type I have ever purchased. I was unsure about what size to order. I ordered my size in the men's and it was perfect for the neoprene waders to fit in. Extremely comfortable. I wear them to the river, fossil hunting. I've tromped around in snow, ice, very deep mud, and they've held up great! They still look new! 😁

Pros
  • Lightweight, comfortable, fit like a glove, ordered 1 size larger to accommodate neoprene footing
Cons
  • I like the high ankle supportI would recommend if you wade less waders you purchase some neoprene socks

Great Performance for the Price

I’ve never left a product review but wanted to on this product. For the price these are 5 star boots. Warm, Comfortable and good Traction.Big upgrade from previous wading boots. These boots take a long time to dry after use b/c they don’t have great ventilationIf your truly want $200 boots, buy those. Don’t buy these and then compare them to $200 boots.But for $100 boots these are awesome.

Pros
  • finally found boots in my size,that has been a problem in the last year
Cons
  • Laces can be difficult to tie

Awesome Wading Boot

Just got back from a trip to Alaska. We stayed in the water 4 to 8 hours a day. These boot were very comfortable. We were fishing a rocky bottom and the rocks were slippery. The boots supported my feet very well and had no pain at the end of the day. Was able to transverse the rocks the soles a good rubber. Did slip on the rocks you just had to walk carefully and the boots kept my feet stable. I ordered one size bigger than I normally wear. Was able to wear a liner sock, wool sock and my waders

Pros
  • Fishing Boot & Wader Bags
Cons
  • Not recommended for use with wading staffs

Great alternative to more expensive mens wading boots

Though I just received these boots, I am very happy with my purchase. I looked at (and tried on) several other brands (Simms, Reddington, Orvis) and these boots represent both value and comfortable design over the other brands. While it remains to be seen how durable they are in the long run I like the idea of purchasing from a smaller / family owned business.they seem to be proud of what they sell. I wear a size 10 shoe and the size 11 boots seems perfect for me, with enough room for heavy…

Pros
  • Lightweight yet sturdy construction ensures minimal wear and tear
Cons
  • May not provide enough cushioning for long periods of standing or walking

Ordered size 12US…too small

My foot measures 11” exactly. Usually wear 11.5US shoe size. I ordered size 12 and they were too small with waders on. The toe geometry of the boot is designed too narrow in my opinion. The would have fit with a more square toe design. Sent them back and will try a size 13.

Pros
  • Provides the perfect amount of arch support for people with foot and back problems
Cons
  • Heavier than some other wading boot options

Strong,Sturdy good for me

No drain holes BUT they do drain from foam circles on sides and tongue,Very easy to put on. I am 11 1/2 I ordered a 13 ,order a full size larger. Nice speed lacing, sturdy and comfortable. Great Boots . Wore them twice so far fished all day and they were great.

Pros
  • Provides comfortable support for your feet, eliminating discomfort and pain
Cons
  • Sole may discolor or stain over time

Great Wading Boot for the price

I've only made it out wade fishing a few times since buying the boots but they've done great. The boot is very comfortable and really easy to get into. The laces stay tight while hiking and wading. The grip in the water was very good too The boots do hold a lot of water and take a while to dry but the performance out weights theseitrle negatives. I plan to test them out on longer hikes and more water time this fall so will definitely update the review.

Pros
  • Easy to put on and take off thanks to their slip-on design
Cons
  • Not recommended for use with certain wetsuit materials

Exceptional Quality

I just received the Foxelli wading boot I ordered a couple of days ago. I am extremely pleased with the quality and the fit. Knowing that wading boots are generally made about a size larger to accommodate the wader's neoprene booties, I ordered my standard shoe size (8US). I just tried them on with the waders and the fit is perfect. The fit is snug enough for support but my toes can wiggle. I will try these boots in the river some time this week but I can tell just by looking. they will work…

Pros
  • This is my first time using them, was not disappointed!
Cons
  • Thin material may tear or puncture easily

I love these things!

Can’t beat them for the price. I bought these for steelhead season and with my insulated socks on, they fit comfortably enough to walk 2+ miles and have enough traction to get me through the water, over land obstacles, and on to the next fishing hole. 10/10 recommend!

Pros
  • Quality was fantastic. Thank you for doing what you do.
Cons
  • Can collect debris in the sole tread

These Wading boots look much nicer and nothing like any traditional wading boot. That's definitely a plus. The sizing is a bit tricky. The sizing table accommodates for the additional neoprene socks but in my case not enough. I am a size 10.5 and bought a size 11 accordingly. They fit but a tad tight for my taste. I am pretty sure a size 12 would be too big. The material is a bit softer than traditional wading boots, so I can only speculate about durability. They also do not have a gravel guard

Pros
  • Highly affordable price point
Cons
  • Not recommended for use with certain wading belts

Pros
  • Guaranteed to last for a long time
Cons
  • May not provide enough protection from sharp objects or rocks

nice wading boots at a very affordable price

i bought these wading boots for warm water/weather use; barefoot no socks. Seem to fit well, nothing fancy, but a nice pair of basic, inexpensive wading boots.

Pros
  • Flexible design for ease of movement
Cons
  • Limited warranty period

Looks like a high quality boot.

These boots are lightweight, look great, and fit well. They seemed a little tight at first but felt good after a while - I think after the neoprene sock compressed a bit. Haven't tried them in a creek yet but they do seem like they will grip well onto rocks.

Pros
  • Love the quality
Cons
  • Not available in half sizes

Lighted weight boots I have found!

I am excited to try this product as they are very light weight and roomy. I found that once the boots fill with water, my legs get extremely fatigued and cuts my days short in the river. The fact that this is a family owned business makes me even more excited to purchase.

Pros
  • Perfect for fly fishing activities
Cons
  • Potential for odors or bacteria growth

Order the next size up from what you normally wear.

I tried them on without the waders on. They are light and comfortable. With the waders and just a normal sock they are a little tight. Wish I would have ordered a size up.

Pros
  • Slip-on design makes it easy to wear and remove
Cons
  • May not provide enough support for those with high arches

Great boots, inaccurate sizing

The boots are great so far. They grip great on slick gravel/cobble/boulder streams and have held up well to multiple full days of use.Do not go by the sizing suggestions in the listing. I followed the advice of reviewers. I ordered a size 7 for a woman with size 6 (in womens) feet, and a size 8 for a woman with size 8 (in womens) feet. They fit perfect (very slightly large for the size 6 foot).

Pros
  • Work well with stocking foot waders.
Cons
  • Can rub on ankle or heel

Good boots for the price

I wear womens size 8 shoe and I bought the mens size 7 boot. It fits well with my waders. Very strong and durable boots. As you can tell in the picture I have worn them plenty. Sometimes I will have problems slipping on the rocks but other than that these are a great purchase.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • Not very flexible

After first day I use, I can not say any bad things about Foxelli boots. They are perfect. I will buy another when I need and recommend to other

Pros
  • nothing
Cons
  • Not suitable for all types of fishing

Worth every penny!: my feedback

Purchased for my Colorado fishing trips. I’ve fished 5 days straight in some rugged terrain in the river and on land. These boots have gotten me through! Light weight, very comfortable! If your wearing with waders or a thick water sock then true to size . If not size down half to full size. Not a single threat or rubber has moved from its place and I have really drug these boots through hell and back. Money well spent!

Pros
  • Prevents slipping on wet surfaces
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use with certain waders
