Use your regular street shoe size when ordering wading boots - Simms wading boots are designed to accomodate the neoprene stockingfoot of the typical wader.
If you are a half size, then you should size up to the next full size. Women should size down for men's wading boots (ie: a women's USA shoe size 8 would take a men's wading boot size 7).

"Just feels like it could go through a brick wall but still comfortable to walk in. Good traction on fast moving river bottoms."
— Steven R. (5/5)
"Love to boot, but could not make an 11 or 12” size work. Need 11.5”"
— Bradley B. (5/5)
"Thankfully I fit into the smallest size you produce (a mens 7) but I know a lot of women who fish or perform fieldwork that would LOVE to have womens wading boot options with the BOA Fit System. So far they have been durable and hold up to hours in the river electrofishing, sport fishing, and miles walking through brushy terrain in Alaska."

"Work great. Fit great!"

"Awesome looking, feeling boots. Love the Boa system. Looking forward to getting them on the water."

"First. . . I wear a size 12. 5 - 13 shoe, pending on the shoe. The size chart said that if I wear a 1/2 size to order the size up so I ordered the 13. My feet were literally swimming in these things. I returned and purchased the 12 and they fit perfect. People talking about the gadget thing not working or not being able to put your foot in? I don't get it. The gadget thing works great and my feet slide in and out with no issue at all. They are very comfortable as well. I'd buy these again!"
— Dee C. (5/5)
"Finally broke down and got sock-in waders and boots. Can't believe I waited this long. These are solid, well constructed boots. They look great, feel great and do everything they're supposed to do. I wear a 7-1/2 shoe, and the size 8 fits fine for me. I credit these to getting a nice brown trout within 10 minutes of entering the water on my first use! JK, but they are darn nice boots!"
— Keith W. (5/5)
"I guide professionally on the west coast of Vancouver Island for steelhead and salmon. First impression is that are built with decent quality. Really nice for easy/quick fitment in the morning and removal at the end of the day. I have found the new vibrum sole is stiffer than older versions. Slippery on river rock more so then the older g3 vibrum versions. Will be looking to add studs. 15 days in them and my feet haven’t hurt once. BOA rachet fell off the right boot after tightening. Seems to have clipped right back into place. Was scared they had already broke but seem to be doing fine."
— Curtis L. (4/5)
"Love the BOA!"
— Lance P. (5/5)
"Tongue of boot and boa cable don't open nearly wide enough. My old boots with the cable knob in the front were much easier to use. Like all Simms products, well made, but these boots not thought out well."
— Bill M. (2/5)
