Hi Spencer,
I have a pair of these, clearly one of the few.
They are very comfortable, I have very broad feet with high arches but these fit well. You need to try them on with your waders on to get the right size.
I put some extra studs in round the toe and heel. The grip is as good as studded felt in the water and far superior on the bank.
On the downside the fine stiching on the upper wears through and after about 100 days of use the sole came unstuck at the heel of one boot. I've used aquasure on both problems, so far the heel is holding up. If the repair doen't work I'm sure I will get a free replacement pair from Orvis.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Bill
