These waterproof, ultra-comfy hiking boots from Cabelas Outfitters are the by far the best purchase I have made in fishing footwear. The Gore-Tex material make this boot 100% WATERPROOF, and unlike other boots, these keep your feet dry almost all the way to the top of the boot. As I am sure you already know, this information is extremely important when purchasing a boot for fishing. Another really great thing about these boots is, because they are made for hiking, they have Vibram outsoles on the bottom and make standing and staying upright in a fishing boat much easier. They really grip the surface and help maintain balance while supporting your ankles while reeling in that monster fish!!!The leather is very attractive and the black toe allows the boot to compliment any style or color of clothing or rain gear. Okay…this shouldn’t be important…but it doesn’t hurt

I have worn these boots while hiking a mountain in Alaska, walking a mile to the stadium for a basketball game, AND while fishing for monster pike in Canada. They always do their job and keep my feet warm AND dry!!! Because they are so cute, you can wear them for casual stuff to and that makes them well worth the cost. These boots can be found at Cabela’s stores or online at http://www.cabelas.com/. I suggest going there right away if you are looking for a great boot thats effective and stylish.

Happy Fishing~

UPDATE: I just checked http://www.cabelas.com/ and it looks as though Cabelas may be discontinuing this style. They are currently on sale for $49.88 and there are not many sizes left. Before picking another style, however, I suggest taking a look at the mens section (product name Cabelas Gore-Tex Trail-Lite Hikers) to see if they might have a size that fits you there. The materials are different, as these are not all leather, but the style is the same. Women usually wear 1-2 sizes smaller in a man’s shoe. I sometimes use this method to get the product that I really want and it works out just fine. The shoots usually fit exactly the same.
