Hi, friends. Time for some new wading boots--I looked pretty funny with rope holding my felt soles on yesterday. I'd love advice from any of you who've tried some of the newer boots.

I really like the idea of AquaStealth soles, but not so sure about adding cleats to them (bad on boats, etc). The Simms Guide boots look nice but have cleats with the rubber. Their L2 boot looks like it might have an alternative called "Simms Convertible Cleat System". Anyone know anything more about that, or have opinions on either of these boots?

I also think the new Korker boots look interesting, but am skeptical about how long the removable sole feature would work well. Thanks for your thoughts!
