What to get for our feet? - BigBo - 06-30-2009
The son and I have tubes, fins, PFD`s, poles and waders.
Now we need foot protection. I wear a size 13EEEE.
Son wears a size 15.
Where do we find shoes/boots that will accept the neoprene on the waders and our big feet?
What do you big foot people wear?
When we get something for our feet we can fish.

[cool]I am a big guy with big feet too...also size 13. I have been waging the battle of finding water shoes, diving booties, etc. for years. I finally found some size 16 diving booties at

I still had to slit the tops to get my filled up neoprenes inside, and then I used a couple of strips of neoprene and some velcro to make a closure strap across the top.
See pics.

Tube Dude is talking, if you have the no shoe scuba fins.
Of course, if you are talking about the harder plastic fins with the straps and clips on top you need harder shoes.
check these out:

They go up to a 15, but they take into account that waDERS HAVE NEOPRENE booties.\, so they are size adjusted.
