I have the Cabela's Lace Up Bootfoot and love the support they give. Very comfortable also. I think they are called the GuideTech II.

Wetsuit and the new korkers! safer and no worries about depth when wading to the outer sand bars or rocks out of reach with waders.

I have had a pair of Cabela's bootfoot neoprene waders for at least 10 years. No problems at all except for the heat. I only use them in Spring, fall and winter.
I recently got myself a pair of Cabela's Three Forks Bootfoots. They are great so far, especially at the nice price of $65 with shipping. They are comfortable and you won't really sweat in them.
These are sold in whole shoe sizes. If you are a 10 then buy a 10. Try them on with a few pairs of socks or just heavy socks just to make sure you don't get caught out in the cold. The return policy is really good so if they don't fit just send them back.

it doesnt sound like he needs a wetsuit or korkers where he fishes.
I would go with the LL Bean bootfoots. If anything, and I mean anything goes wrong with them you can exchange no questions asked. The best return policy IMHO. |

LL Bean breathables - under a hundred buks and get a good pair of boots. You will want the ankle support if you fish in cobble areas.
Best return policy of all. You can simply walk in to their store and do the return. No mail and wait. They have a store in Burlington MA right off 128.

second for these, they are the best, if you are a normal sized person they should fit you fine, the ones in my shoe size didn't quite conincide well with my inseam, which is odd b/c I'm kinda short, so I exhanged them for stocking foot, but these are the best waders going, I wish they made them in different sizes with the integrated boot foot. |

I have the Orvis Silver Label Bootfoot model, going on five years. They were retired after last Cuttyhunk trip. Felt boots are now shot, but they have been great. Backups have been the LL Beans with the Lug soles. Orvis has more room, LL Bean has heavier material.
I would look at these though...

these most resemble what I just retired...
