Patagonia Rock Grip Wading Boot-Aluminum Bar

Put the bite on greasy boulders and slime-covered cobble without eating up boat floors. Our new Rock Grip Aluminum Bar Wading Boots have all the toughness and support of the original, with the addition of soft, malleable aluminum bars (hence the name) mounted on the sole that provide the world's finest traction. The result Max traction for extreme wading conditions and continued invitations to fish with boat-owning friends. A compression-molded EVA midsole and polypropylene insole/shank combo reduce fatigue and help you stay vertical. Heavily padded ankle support and reinforced toebox and heel counter offer comfort and protection in boulder gardens. These boots are not fly-line friendly but do offer a full-coverage, glued and stitched rubber rand and abrasion-resistant toe bumper for bomber durability. Synthetic leather uppers and padded nylon/spandex neoprene tongue cradle your feet, dry quickly and stay flexible. We offer an Aluminum Bar Replacement Kit (style number: 81690) to help you maintain your grip for years to come.
