Here are some general guidelines for selecting what's best for your wading needs:

  • Cleats offer a larger surface area for overall slip resistance and are suitable for Vibram or rubber outsoles. Simms offers Alumabite (softer, molds better) and Hardbite (carbide construction, more durable with textured overlays for penetration) cleats.
  • Studs are recommended for slippery moss, algae, or slime as they penetrate the material to grip the substrate beneath. They are also the only option for felt outsoles. Simms provides studs specific to rubber/Vibram and felt outsoles.

Reviews

Highly recommended

"I love AlumiBite Star Cleats. They offer very good traction and are softer on boat floors than carbide. The only knock I have on them is that they are a little spendy. I max my boots out with cleats, so I buy 2 boxes and replace once a year which adds up."

Matthew W. (5/5)

Wading cleats

"They are great!"

Frank O. (5/5)

Studs and g3 boots

"The boots have a bit of a bigger style then the freestones that I’ve been wearing for the past couple of years, the g3 seem to run a tad bigger in the same size. Love that the boots came with a second pair of laces but kinda bummed my orange pair broke the second outing with them. Studs were perfect! Loved that I was able to try these boots. Hoping to get a pair of the wet wading shoes for my honeymoon in Hawaii to chase after some GT and bones🤙🏼"

Aaron S. (5/5)

Just Right

"The grip on these cleats is just right! However, a real bugger to install into the Vibram soles."

Robert G. (5/5)

Grippy, but comes loose

"I installed these in bootfoot waders. They provided decent grip, but came loose after about a week of fishing."

Bjorn O. (3/5)

Alumbite

"Haven’t received the wading cleats as yet."

Randy C. (5/5)

4 Wheel Drive for your Feet

"The cleats were amazing for our boat-based fieldwork. They gave me confidence getting in and out of boats on slippery, seaweed covered rocks for bird surveys. Would 10/10 recommend!"

Katharina M. (5/5)

They bite

"These cleats grip and grab like crazy. They even work on slick rocks. No slipping with these!"

Dean V. (5/5)

Cleats

"Works good in northern waters in Colorado"

Jim D. (5/5)

Cleats

"Great traction but expensive"
