Vibram® G4 Guide - Wading Boots | Large

Description of the Vibram® G4 Guide - Wading Boots:

This is the hardest working boot that Simms offers. The G4 features high abrasion-resistant panels utilizing Schoeller® Nanosphere® technology.

Simms and Vibram have worked together to produce the Vibram® StreamTread™ sole. An ultra-grippy, super-sticky rubber sole that works as good or better than felt in virtually any wet or aquatic condition. This is the most aggressive sticky rubber sole available and will give you great traction not only in the water but out of as well. Mud, wet grass, snow and other conditions that can be challenging with other sole options are easily handled with the StreamTread™ sole. These new soles have been field tested extensively and will perform far better than any rubber soled fishing footwear currently on the market.

  • Schoeller®-dynatec high performance abrasion-resistant mesh panels with Nanosphere® finish
  • Bellowed leather tongue allows for easy-on, easy-off
  • Molded toe and heel counters eliminate toe box collapse and provide a better fitting boot
  • PU one-piece midsole
  • Minimum exposed stitching for increased durability and less opportunity for "hitchhikers"
  • Fully neoprene lined with closed-cell foam for minimal water absorption
  • Rubber rand for superior durability & and internal 3D ankle stabilizer
  • Contoured speed lacing system with roller guide eyelet for friction-free adjustment & high quality, non-corrosive hardware
  • Offered in men's whole sizes: 7-14 EEE
  • Features CleanStream™ technology along with our new StreamTread™ traction sole with Vibram® Idrogrip™ 360 traction lug sole. View available Vibram® re-solers here.
  • Imported

The Vibram® soled boots will be a big step forward in anglers' fight against aquatic nuisance species - organisms like didymo, whirling disease and New Zealand mud snails that are transferred to other waterways via felt and matter caught on the boots. Already, New Zealand has banned felt-soled boots and some states are asking anglers to avoid using felt soled shoes. Additionally, Simms boots and waders are designed with the “CleanStream™ technology,”. This philosophy and design uses materials and production techniques to make it more difficult for microorganisms to attach and makes Simms wading gear easier to properly clean.

Great Boots
Rating: 5 of 5 [5 of 5]
Reviewed by: Christopher on 01/05/2011
Experience Level: Amatuer - Ownership: 1 - 4 Months
Pros: Purchase new pair of Simms Guide Boots to fish NZ and am pleased I did. A great boot and in my opinion good value for money. Previously relied on my felt sole Danner River Grippers (purchased in 1994) which are also fantastic and still going strong including the unbreakable laces.
Cons: The new Simms look (and feel) to be just as durable, but only time will tell with the laces?

Pros: Great boot, very good support, give a lot of confidence wading. Comfy all day in all conditions.
Cons: water stays in the boot...after use you have to hold the boots up to drain the water....also the laces are starting to fray after about 20 days of use. Maybe Simms should add an extra pair of laces with boots....
Other Thoughts: Very tough boots!

Pros: Bought these boots to fish in New Zealand. I wore them every day for 10 days and found them superb and exceptionally good service from Riverbum.
Cons: None I can think of
G4 Wade Boot
Rating: 4 of 5 [4 of 5]
Reviewed by: Damon on 10/24/2009
Experience Level: Pro - Ownership: 4 - 12 Months
Pros: A sturdy boot with a nice wide, balanced footprint. Great support and comfortable. The Vibram sole is okay at first.
Cons: After roughly 8 months, the Vibram sole is showing significant wear (and not from walking on pavement). Should not be compared to felt. I'm going to use the new "star studs" to get a little traction. Been through 3 prs. of laces. No big deal, just annoying.

Pros: This is nice boots. Very comfortable. Easy to put on and off. Used them five weeks this summer. This boots worked well on slippy stones in the river.
Cons: I cant say anything negative about this product.
Rating: 3 of 5 [3 of 5]
Reviewed by: Chris on 09/02/2009
Experience Level: Amatuer - Ownership: 1 - 4 Months
Pros: The boot is comfortable, and it really holds up well in all types of conditions.
Cons: The Streamtread is not what I expected in the grip area. Several times I have almost fallen off slippery rocks. I live and fish in the Pacific Northwest and we have some wet areas where felt is excellent, but the Streamtread is just not sticky enough. I do not feel comfortable with these in my home rivers.
