2.0 out of 5 stars. Way Too SmallVerified Buyer Reviewed by disappointed from Utah on Monday, September 2, 2019I was pretty disappointed in these Korkers, given the other styles I’ve tried on that we’re so nice. There aren’t a lot of options for women’s wading boots, so I decided to try smaller men’s sizes (which are difficult to find in stores). I typically wear a women’s shoe size 7, which is men’s 5. I ordered these in a 7 (equivalent to women’s 9), so they should have been too large. With my waders on they were ridiculously tight with absolutely no wiggle room in the toe box at all. Without waders they felt like a normal shoe to me. Part of the problem is the padding in the ankle pushes your entire foot forward, and the fabric of the shoe has no movement in it at all. I was pretty disappointed since I got them on clearance for about 40 bucks. In the end I went with the Greenback for 100 and it was so much more comfortable. If you want to spend more for even more function and comfort, go with the Darkhorse or Devils Canyon.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Korkers!Verified Buyer Reviewed by jimmyB from South Dakota on Monday, June 17, 2019I already have a pair of Korkers that I use exclusively for fishing. They are wonderful. When I saw my size on clearance, I purchased another pair to use exclusively for duck hunting. I hike into wetlands/ponds here in South Dakota and I have switched to stocking foot waders to be able to hike more comfortably (versus those heavy, clunky footed waders!). Take care of your Korkers and you will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Nice bootsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Troy from Colorado on Monday, September 3, 2018Heavier than my old boots. Fit is spot on, I went a full size up from my normal shoes. Hiked into a fishing spot and these boots did well on the trail and the river.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Sturdy bootsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from UPSTATE NY on Monday, May 28, 2018I have only had these boots for nine days but six of them have been on the water. Very pleased with this sturdy construction which is perfect for our upstate New York streams. Wish there was a studded sole option that came with this boot. Have only used the rubber sole so far but it has been great for moving miles upstream comfortably. Many days have been 6+ hours on the water so that comfort is important! Waiting and entire season to see how these hold up before giving five stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars. wasted moneyReviewed by Swamplover from Upstate NY on Wednesday, May 9, 2018Korkers in my opinion are a waste of money.. the felt bottoms do not last more than a season with heavy use.. ( 3-4 times a week for 4 month @ around 5 hours per day) the felt bottoms are cheap felt that just do not hold up. They do run small by at least half a size. I will however give them the point of having great ankle support.
When attaching the soles be careful not to split the rubber where toe inserts on them.
Would recommend buying a good felted boot if you are looking to only use felt, which has no substitute for traction on a wet rock while wading in moving waters.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Great wading bootsVerified Buyer Reviewed by RatherBeFishin from Pacific NW on Thursday, October 19, 2017My first pair of wading boots but the price was great so I splurged. Overall they're well made and heavy duty. Since I find it helpful when others post size info in their reviews I will too. I wear a 10.5 shoe and bought a size 11 boot. At first I thought maybe I should return them for a size 12 because they seemed tight when I tried them on (neoprene feet on waders). I decided against it and after a couple of trips out in the water they seem to have "relaxed" just a tiny bit and are fine. I've worn other wading boots (loaners) that were too large and that seems like a good way to get a twisted ankle.
