What deck boots is everyone wearing?

[Fisher_dude]

I’ve got a pair of Vikings that I’ve been wearing for a few years but they are super flat and my arches are killing me after a day on the water. I also sized them to small and they are way to tight with a pair of thicker socks.

I've been wearing my vessi waterproof shoes. Online company. Way more comfortable now.

seasonal of course and quite often am bare foot with shorts and a jacket in the rain.

Bought these before tuna fishing this year on the east coast because they were easier to travel with vs full height boots. Went out in October out of Gloucester no complaints wear them all the time now very comfortable..

Bogs have been great boots wear them hunting and fishing can’t believe how expensive they are now I think I paid $90 a couple seasons ago but that seems like the norm now.. had the Canadian tire kamik brand before nothing wrong with those either but I think these are a little more comfortable and will last longer.

Summer time it’s “natives” or bare feet.

Xtratuf x 2. Bought a second pair for outside around the house

xtratuf wheelhouse . Pricey but quite comfortable and if you have big old feet like me they are nice and wide

 

[Stosh]

Xtratuf Legacy - most comfortable boot I’ve ever owned. I wear them everywhere-hiking, biking etc. The neoprene liner keeps you warm and dry. Very pricey, but watch for sales. Pac twine had a sale at the VBS a few years ago.

Dunlop , good all purpose boot.
very comfortable.

Xtuff ankle deck boot. Great investment.

 

[Stoisy]

Xtra Tuff Wheelhouse - the only problem with them is the stretch material on the ankle is a little low. So when it is really wet and you're moving around the deck a lot, the fabric can get wet, and cause your feet to get a little damp. Not ideal. But, they are very comfortable and warmer in the winter months because of the extra width.

Another vote for the Xtratuff ankle boot. Light weight makes them good for multi day west coast missions.

I have two pairs on the boat and I rarely wear them anymore. I only wear them if Im fully suited up now.

Agreed for inside boating, either bare feet or cheap water shoes if beaching for clams and oysters.

WCVI is another world though. Self bailing decks usually means wet feet all day, but full height rubber boots are uncessarily heavy and clumsy for the task.

We used a temp gun on my buddies dark grey pair during the heat wave and they were reading 50 degrees lol. Other than that, they are great. Just get a lighter color.

I also wear these

Baffin.

 

[Fisher_dude]

I wear flip flops on the boat when it’s nice out and my muck boots when it’s in and around the negatives. Just looking for something for the inbetween times. I got a $50 gift card burning a hole in my pocket for PNT. Wouldn’t mind coming home from vacation and have them waiting for me.

 

[Derby]

Been wearing these Grunden boots on and off the boat for years now..love them

 

[tbeatm]

Have a pair of the xtratuf legacy as well. Great for cooler weather fishing and the non slip of these boots is excellent. Docks/rocks or boat decks traction is great. Summer just bare feet or crocs.
