Default Advice needed for problem with Itasca neoprene waders

Hello all:

First let me say that I'm new to fishing news groups but have been a UseNet poster for
almost 20 years...

I surf fish in NJ.. Striped Bass, Bluefish, Little Tunnies, Spanish Mackerel, etc. Last
year I replaced an old pair of Ball Waders with Itasca neoprene waders.

I have run into a problem and am looking for some advice.

Where the boot meets the legging, the rough surface causes severe chaffing on my calves
making them too painful to wear. Does anybody have any ides that I can apply to smooth over
the boot-legging junction such that don't chafe my legs ?

TIA

Dave

What about gluing some felt cloth in that area. Seems to me that it would
both pad the area and not "grab" at you.

What do you suggest ?

Rubber Cement ? DuCo Cement ?

Will it stick to the cloth ?

My momma used to tell me "if you were only half as smart as you think you
are". In this case I've already used up my brain cells. I'd check with an
arts and crafts store, especially one that sells the felt cloth and holds
"classes" for their customers- they're usually more knowledgeable than dept
store clerks. Good luck.--
Shelby Foles,
