Winter fishing (Frankenstein boots with snow buildup) , and hiking/walking with them. I have some felts and hippers with felts for the kickboats. My main moving water boot has been the Simms Guide boot (leather) and Aquastealth with the carbide studs. I've used them for a long time and I hated the shrinkage of the leather when they were dry. So for Christmas I got the Simms Rivershed with the new Vibram sole. That's a killer combo. I weigh about 230# and last time we went fishing, I purposly tried to slide off the rocks. The soles are pretty impressive. Plus, the material is lightweight and half the weight of the leather Guide's.
