ive had simms bootfoots for 3 years now no leaks except the hook I put in the thigh , Ive walked through woods ,jetty, beach....the best...after a long walk on the beach you dont even notice them. For cold weather i add silks and sweats
wicking sox keep the feet feeling dry [mountain climbing stores sell the sox]
the silks do the same wicking job.

I can order them as I'm a Simms dealer, but I don't carry the G3. Just the lightweight bootfoot wader, and those I've somewhat phased out since the comprably priced Orvis product seems to be more durable.

Orvis will still send a new pair replacement if your granfathered in. Bought my first pair 12 years ago and had 1 replacement no charge after 6 years. Then this year returned again and as the price had gone up from my first pair had to pay the $50 difference plus the $10 to ship back the old pair. Still not a bad deal.
