Bare Kermode Wading Boots effectively combine comfort, durability and affordable price. They are also versatile enough to provide superior protection on all terrains. Thanks to the hydrophobic felt sole that reduces water absorption the boots will remain lightweight even when wet. What's more, the boot upper, created from a rugged nylon weave, allows for rapid drainage of water. The reinforced anti-abrasion toe and heel caps extend to side panels reducing wear and scuffing of boot upper. Other features of the Bare Kermode Boots include: felt sole edges buffed to create a "hard edge” preventing fraying; distinctive two tone nylon weave with synthetic leather panels; padded tongue with ¾” gusset for easy donning and doffing; speed lacing system with rustproof hardware.
