Why We Like The Simms Freestone Boot

Trudging through a river is hard work—and hard on boots—which is why we like the Simms Freestone Boot. The uppers feature a sturdy combination of waterproof synthetic leather and scratch rubber for abrasion-resistance and time-tested durability for hiking riverbanks and negotiating unseen hazards on the river bottom. The rubber outsoles give us good wet and dry traction while the partial neoprene lining insulates and cushions our feet alongside the soft, EVA foam midsoles. We can wear these boots with any stockingfoot-style waders or pair them with the Simms Freestone Stockingfoot Waders for a perfectly matched set.

Fantastic boots!

Wore these in Maine fishing for a couple of days then 6 days straight in Alaska. Great fit, support, and traction (without cleats). A definite winner!

Great boots!

These boots are comfortable, durable and grippy, and I definitely give them 5 stars. I fish them in the fresh and salt, and I also frequently hike in them. Paired with the Freestone wader they're a great combination without breaking the bank!

Freestones

I have been wearing these daily since May. My shop's trips are mostly walk/wade so putting lots of miles in. Size 11 boot and a size 10 street shoe. I've had previous models of the freestones in the past and I really like these. Easy to take on and off. Stud's are still in place, sometimes I just re-tighten them and snug them up. These will definitely last this guide season and hopefully into next. I will definitely be getting a new pair for next season. Durability factor is a 5 star rating. The sole's seem to be holding up better than previous models. So far after 145 days of use I would strongly recommend Freestone boots.

First time

First time using stocking foot waders and boots. Extra ankle support made for a great time stomping northern Michigan rivers In snow.

Best boot I’ve ever had!

Hands down this has been the best wading boot I have ever had. Easy to slide into, easy to tie, and super comfortable! A little stiff but did not feel like it will take long to break in. I had heavy socks on and was able to pretty much stay in the water the entire time. It was snowing, my vehicle said it was 26 degrees outside.

Freestone boots

I recently upgraded my old pair of wading boots to these new Freestone boots. . Pretty comfortable and well built. . I did buy them 2 sizes above my normal shoe size and they feel perfect…

Great Boots

Bought these for a 2 week trip to Argentina. They performed as I knew a Simms product would. They were comfortable with great ankle support, which was important while walking across the rocky terrain. Love all my Simms gear!

They’re great

These are great. I’m not sure what Holmes is talking about. Traction is good and comfort is there. They’re great everyday wading boots for those putting long days and lots of miles on their feet. Great bang for the buck.

Freestones

Love these boots, wear a size 10 street shoe so sized up to 11. Ive owned several pair of these and the G3 guide boots. These seem like theyll hold up pretty good. I havent put studs in yet but will be doing it soon. All my extra boots get rotated into client stock along with waders. I think these will work out good. 30+ days so far in these and no sign of wear. Easy break in period, as usual an excellent pair of wading boots.
