High water. Slick bedrock. Cobbles like greased bowling balls. Patagonia Riverwalkers built their reputation in the most demanding wading conditions, and now feature even greater flexibility, quicker drying and lighter weight. Notched flex zones allow for more natural foot movement; a new polypropylene insole/shank offers improved stability. But don't let the comfort fool you: These are tough boots for serious wading. Details: molded EVA midsole, a Rockstopper lasting board to block stone-bruising, synthetic leather and polyester high-filtration mesh (100% recycled) uppers, protected lacing.
New Rock Grip outsole on this legendary boot for the 2011 season!
Sized to accommodate neoprene stocking-foot waders....but we still find ourselves going up one to one-and-a-half sizes for a good fit. In other words, if you are a 9 street shoe, order these in 10.....9.5 go with 11.
