Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Simms Freestone Wading Boots:
- Sizing: Ensure the boots fit properly, with enough room for comfortable movement, especially when wearing wader socks.
- Stud Installation: If needed, install Simms Hardbite Felt Studs into the felt outsole for improved traction on slippery surfaces. Follow the stud manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.
- Cleaning: After each use, rinse the boots thoroughly with fresh water to remove any dirt, mud, or debris. Allow the boots to air dry completely, away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
*Compatibility:* The boots are specifically designed to work with Simms Hardbite Felt Studs for enhanced grip.
