What it is?
The Orvis Mens Ultralight wading boot is an absolute top of the wading boot. One of the lightest and most durable wading boots on the market. These boots are made to be worn all day and the comfort is unmatched. The only downfall with these boots is the same issue you'll have with any wading boot in that eventually the laces will break due to getting wet and drying out time after time. Replace with new laces and you are good to go for many more fishing sessions.

When sizing for wading boots, typically we like to start one size up from your normal shoe size. This is to accomodate for the added volume needed when wearing waders.
The chart below lists the ORVIS Wading Boot sizing with equivalent shoe sizes. Please use this chart when ordering to ensure an ideal fit. (i.e. Men's US size 10 would take an ORVIS Men's Wading Boot size 11.)
