"The new flats sneaker is a very nice hot weather tropical wading shoe. Size is exact with a wading sock order one half size larger. Barefoot exact size. I have had the previous models that were more boot like and stingray proof and liked them very much,that model lasted 10 years in the Florida salt. Wold like to see that stingray proof rating again on the sneaker,as well as a sewn in sole like other wading boots from Simms. Overall great looking and comfortable barefoot wading sneaker."

Flats Sneaker Review
"Excellent wading boot. It took some time to break in the boots (maybe 2 hours or so) then I could feel the sole begin to soften and mold to my foot. After that it was smooth sailing. Waded all day in a mix of deep mud, sandy, and grassy bottoms, then walked around the dock to clean fish and wash the boat, all while still wearing the boots. The comfort is unmatched."
Nice light weight shoes that serve the purpose.
"Love these flats sneakers. Great to keep in my boat if I decide to jump out and do some wade fishing."
Great boots! Lightweight, durable
"Great boots! Lightweight, durable"
Major manufacturing qc issues
"Have purchased and returned 2 sets of the same boot. Not a single boot was consistent in size/manufacturing. Of the 4 individual boots that were in my possession, all cuffs were cut to different heights. Widths not consistent. Almost like they were randomly molded and cut and sewed by hand with zero consistency. Was able to make one boot fit on my right foot but nothing matched size for the left. The other right boot that didn’t fit was also significantly narrower than the other that fit. Going with Patagonia."
Not like past versions
"I agree with other reviewers. I purchased the previous version twice and really enjoyed the boots. I had to toss these. I surf fish and within a few sessions sand built up in between the fabric and they became unwearable."
Perfect
"Good quality"
Men’s flats sneaker
"Haven’t actually taken them fishing yet but been breaking them in at home and they feel fantastic"
Worst wading boot
"These boots are trash. If you are walking and wading in white sand the sand fills up in between the fabric layers and you can’t get it out. I have tried many times to contact simms about this with no response. Once enough sand gets in the layers they are unwearable."
Horrible
"It lets sand in between the layers of fabric that your can’t get out. That sand is the very uncomfortable - these are the worst wading boots I have ever owned."
