Since 1856 Orvis has been making comfortable, durable fishing gear and clothing with the outdoors in mind, and the Clearwater Bootfoot is a budget-friendly fly-fishing wader with impressive innovations, featuring warm vulcanized rubber neoprene boots with felt soles that swell in the water and provide superior traction on slick underwater surfaces. This modern fit wader eliminates traditional chest wader bulk, and is crafted from four-layer waterproof and breathable nylon fabric that's both lightweight and durable, boasting a 30K Waterproofness rating and 8K Breathability rating. Opposing side-release buckles allow for waist-high conversion on warm days. The external chest zip storage pocket with a stretch panel holds small items and fly boxes dry and secure within easy reach, and a kangaroo-style handwarmer pocket is ready to warm you up on chilly mornings en route to your fishing spot. Low-profile belt loops with an included 1½-inch webbing belt provide additional comfort fitting, and the wader also features a hook-and-loop patch on the interior pocket to attach Orvis waterproof pocket (8G3H, sold separately).
