TonkaBass Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Last year I wore Nike Shocks (love them), and fished bare foot. I was just wondering what you guys wear in the boat. Looking to get some new fishing kicks. My biggest concern is comfort after standing all day, but I also want breathable. Just curious to see what you guys are wearing...

Neighbor_guy Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I like sandals or bare foot.A word of warning to anyone fishing from my boat....Go Barefoot at your own risk. Footwear required by those under 10 y/o/a. If you know what I am saying.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStracker Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Under Armour Mirage is what I bought for this year. Last year I wore some adidas vented shoes a lot like the nike shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJH Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Merrel's. They have several different models that are great. I wear some waterproof ones until it gets really hot out, then gravitate towards sandals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goblueM Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 heavy duty crocs... they float (big plus) breathe, are comfortably and are only 40 bucks. Lasted 2 years so far and I abuse them. Even portaging in the BW with them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigums Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Im also a fan of barefoot if you are careful and in a clean boat. Otherwise I just use nike tennis shoes with the padded inserts added into them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raider4ever Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 What?!? No one else fishes with Pradas? Muffy, Biff, and I don't set foot on the yacht without them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Seriously, my daughter was up at some tanning salon for a UV treatment in December and there were these really light weight, mesh type slip ons. Style was a lot like a running shoe. Soles looked like they would grip fairly well. When I picked her up, I thought "Hey these would be nice out on the boat" Of course I cannot recall their name. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raider4ever Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Sled,As in Air Jordans? If so, which ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berfish Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Chacos. They are really nice because they have a good comfortable sole with some arch support plus they are a sandle. They give you some crazy tan lines on your feet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
