boot repair

[augs]

Hey folks:
Last time I went wade-fishing, the ice cold water surrounding my foot let me know that I had a hole in my boot. It's a pair of hip-boots, and the hole was created by a crack on the front of the boot, right where the ankle meets the foot (I've done a lot of kneeling and crouching in these boots).

Anybody have any tips about how such a hole might be repaired? It's a relatively new pair, so I don't want to just get rid of them, but it would have to be pretty strong, since I will continue to need to kneel and crouch, so there will be further stress on the crack. Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Mike

I have had good luck with marine goop or shoo goo....and you can glob it on as thick as you want...be sure the site is clean and taper the edges.

I keep a tube of Shoe Goo close at hand.

Aquaseal...
It's the best repair goop there is.
It is made specificly for wet wader repairs unlike Shoe Goo or Marine Goop.
