I'm taking a hard look at wading boot and mostly the new Korkers. Has anyone used them? If so please let me know what you think.

If you are talking about the brand new ones, no. If you are asking about the boots from last year, yes. I have used and like them, no problems. If you do decide to get them be sure to try them on. I usually wear an 81/2 - nine shoe and had to go to an 11.

Thanks for that info and I am thinking about the new ones. I live in WV and fish here and in MD. MD is outlawing felt as of March 2011 so im thinking about the interchangeable soles.

I haven't tried their new boots, but I had a pair from their old line that held out for 3 seasons of guiding and some pretty rough and tumble use. Looks like they improved the way the soles lock on to the boot, which would've been my only complaint. I would say go for them.

Awesome. As I live here in Maryland, I did not know this. My shoes, after 7 years, gave out last year. My wife, god bless her, bought me new ones which of course are felt soled and just like my last pair. Great now I am out money. Before anyone yells, I understand the need for it, just mad at myself for not paying attention and wasting money on the felt soled boots.
