I'm looking for a new pair of wading boots as the felts have peeled off of my old (generic) wading boots. This time I'm willing to up my game to better boots. I'm hoping to get hydrophobic felt with studs. I've read so much bad effects about regular felt I'm ready for the synthetic ones with studs. The only ones I have found are Chota boots. Any advise about these or other similar waders would be welcome. I fish mainly Pennsylvania freestone streams, some with lots of boulders. Thanks for any help. Ron
