“Must Buy 2010: Great Wet Surf Fish Boot”

“SIZING: There is a lot of confusion about sizing. The boot was just what I was looking for in a surf boot. I wear a 13 and ordered the largest available 46, which STP says is a US 11.5 I was praying it would fit. Prayer answered and then some. Room for the orthodic. I was able to put my orthodic inside the boot and it still fits my size 13 bare foot. It could instead fit a neoprene bootie wetsuit or waders without the orthodic. If you don't put something besides your foot into the boot, it will be falling off your foot, unless you downsize. Go by the European size chart and ignore those US equivalents. Barefoot, the boot still runs a size big. If I were going barefoot, I would get the 45, maybe the 44. The cushioning and support is what makes this boot great in the surf and walking on the beach. The cuff is snug and keeps most sand out. The side zip is solid. A little effort to get in and out, but that is what makes the boot supportive. I rate this as a MUST BUY 2010 for the Fisherman that likes to wet-wade.”
