    Diabetic Wading Boots

    My Simms boots are difficult for me to get on and to tie. Are there any diabetic wading boots for us old guys?
    Should I just switch back to boot foot waders?
    Thanks

    Do you find the tippet to be prone to break more easily as it gets older. Orvis dates theirs. One reason I don't buy larger spools in concern for "aging" tippet breaking off.
