You been hitting the Sandy for Coho? I tried Tuesday and found my
wading
boots wanting. I was walking over the river rocks after fishing for only an
hour in the morning and felt my spiked felt roll over under my right foot.
These are Korkers, the new type with changeable soles. I've been very happy
with the product up until now, but the soles had a complete failure of the
glue on the right foot. Both inserts were seated well. I made sure to look
at the left foot and it was seated with the lip of the insert as required.
I can pull on the felt and can see the felt start to lift off the mushy
glue. I'm saving the placement of the insert to show Kauffman's. I've not
had any problems with the rubber sole or the felts, but the felt & spike
sole failed. It cut my fishing day short as I did not bring the other
inserts with me.

I just picked up a pair of Korker, studded felt soles. They now have the
felt riveted to the backing. It looks awful, and i'm a bit worried that
when the rivets wear down, they won't hold the sole on. We'll see how it
goes.
