Mourning Guys & Dolls, I have a couple ?'s. 1st I'm looking for the best Opt for the rubber boots/socks you ware. Size 16, so I think I'm screwed! Cabelas has 2mil socks in 16 but I think they might be to thin. 2nd. I have a 13 ft Sun/Velocity Sit-Inside. It has 1 tear shaped Lrg hatch in the rear and nothing in front. I'd like to put the same type, our whatever would give me the best access, 37 inch inseam and my feet makes for tight fit but I need something. :smt017

I have the NRS Wetshoe and I love them. They appear to have up to size 15 and mine seem to run a bit large so it might work. Looks like they are on sale as well. Check them out.

Thanks alot Bill! Just ordered them and looks like they will work just fine. Hopefully they fit. Have you ever had to return anything to them. do you think they could be used  over stocking-foot waders for hunting. Sturdy enough?

They are pretty tough but I am not sure I would want to go hunting in them. I wore mine all the time during the Mendo tourney and they where rock solid.

I have never returned anything to NRS but I hear nothing but good things.

NRS is about as consistently good as stuff gets.  Great stuff, fair price.

I wear O'Neill surf booties.  Split toes and nice velcro closure with a spot for my keys.

Thanks Sean! The box arrived Yesterday, Man that was fast. Nice chatting the other night. I can't wait to dig in a start installing. Great quality, quick service,& and pleasant to deal with. Class act all the way around.GWKC. NRS boots should  arrive Today. I'm still trying to find the right hatch for the front of the SITN. I'm alittle worried about structural integrity and how big I can go. I'll check out those O'Neil booties RED
