Well, I've finally done it, but only about half way at this point.


You want a boot that's large enough to get on easily and loose enough that
it doesn't impede blood circulation in your feet. I would have thought that
wader boot sizes would correspond to the size of a typical foot size
together with typical wader thickness; but I was clearly mistaken when I
bought mine. My shoe size is also about a 10 +/-, but I ended up buying a
size 13 boot to feel comfortable.

The problem I have with wading boots is that they don't come in half
sizes. What I need is an 11 1/2 pair, but I have to settle for either an
11 or a 12. I try to get a pair that (1) doesn't pinch my toes, and (2)
can be laced up snug with either one or two pair of socks (in addition
to the feet of the waders, of course).
