do you have to wear water proof wading boots or could you just wear a cheap pair of tennis shows?

You can wear whatever you want as long as you dont mind them getting wet! I use a cheap pair of boots with my stockingfoot waders

waterproof boots would be a waste of money, tennis shoes or cheap pair of wading boots will work fine. Just need something to protest your soles.

These boots are meant for rugged terrain and outdoor use , for an pool you would like to use a lighter shorter boot and a thinner gauge neoprene

Your feet definitely get wet, they have grip on the bottom to prevent slip & falls only. Not waterproof

The answer isn't as simple as yes or no. This product will help with keeping your boots water resistant. Meaning if you walk through the rain you will be fine, but it will not keep your feet dry if you walk through a stream or river. The point of the conditioner is to make your leather still breathable and flexible while adding a layer of protection. They claim that other water proofer's will not allow leather to breathe making your feet warmer if you wear the boots in the summer. I've used both waterproofer and conditioner before and each has it's own place, but this product has kept my good western boots in great shape for about a year now.

I haven't had that problem because I always wear socks and don't get mud over the sides if I can help it. So far, I haven't had mud or water spill over. If I think that might happen, I wear another type of boot or I can avoid the problems areas in the fields. I would think these are just for casual yard wear...something that you don't get your regular shoes wet.

I use mine in the fall and winter to get in and out of my kayak without getting my feet wet and cold. They are waterproof so I'm not sure they would work well for your purpose. Might look into water shoes specifically made for pool use.

Yeah sure! But be sure to wear some swim savers so you don't lose them when you hit against a rock

Patricia, you sure can. The best part about them is that they have the side zipper for easy on and off. Most wetsuit boots are just pull on and are a real pain. Understand though, that these are neoprene wetsuit material. They are thick and they do let the water in, as they are supposed to to help keep your feet warmer . The soles are nice and thick and "grippy" too. I have worn them on rocks , sand and slippery grass and they keep you pretty solidly on your feet.

I've used them with full fins and open fins with no problem, but would rather use diving boots for open fins. They get a bit loose after a few uses, but still work well as socks for full fins. If you use them without fins they're not that great because they flood easily.

Depends on how wide/big your boots and feet are. I can wear them w/ tennis shoes but I have to loosen them pretty good. I have fairly thin feet.

These are great boots, I use them with my open hill fins, when you get out of the water these will hold water inside, this means that the top cloth is sealed (not like the mesh type beach sand) so sand won't enter inside the boot but if the water is sandy? I love these boots, they are great and very comfortable, I haven't seen any signs of damage.

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

No. These are dive boots which are made of the same neoprene material as wetsuits and are not waterproof.

A good pair of boots is all that is needed. In fact, I use LL Bean duck boots. Enjoy and get ready for a great workout. Cheers

on a hot summer day, you would be better off with breathable waders. you'll sweat a lot with these waders.

Sure, but your feet would get very cold. These are rubber rain boots and not lined.

Wader boots do not pull off in the mud. That said, for cold-water duck hunting I prefer regular boot footed waders. You can get lots of warm socks on without the pressure points and toe "scrunching" that you get with wading boots. There are straps that you can buy to help keep boot footed waders from pulling off in the mud.
