FROGG TOGGS Men's Aransas II Neoprene Surf & Sand Waterproof Fishing Wading Boot for Fishing

Much better than expected. True to size. Lot of wiggle room, which is good when walking the soft beach sand. Good traction in the surf when fishing so the wave action doesn’t knock you down! Zipper closes very well and stays closed - Dunno what those negative reviews were about. Keeps my feet warm in the surf, paired with neoprene pants.

I'm a commercial diver. I've been using these boots for the last 5 months in different types of diving jobs, out in the sea, rivers, etc. They are great, comfortable, and have a nice, tight fit. They also have great boot soles, which make you feel secure and safe when walking at the bottom of the sea. I will keep using these as they also were very affordable for their quality and even compared to their counterpart in diving. If they are suitable for me underwater, I'm sure they will be perfect for whatever wet use you have them in mind for.

Well, I used these for about a year and have probably 20ish miles in em total and then they fell apart. Not bad for the price and they should last plenty long for normal folks. The zipper could use some improvement though. Kept coming unzipped.

Fell apart after 1 season. It wasn't even a full season of use, maybe 10 outings in the fall. The zipper has issues and the stitching is just falling apart.

The Frog Toggs Aransas 2 is an excellent wading shoe. First, it is easy to put on. One can wear a polyester sock or thin neoprene while wearing the shoe. The zipper closure is well built.The shoe has exceptional traction.Now, the Bad: the sizing of the shoe is purely random. I wear a 12. But, after returning a 12 which was actually about a 14, and an 11 that was no different , I wound up in a 10.5 which is still a bit big but I decided to add an insole and wear thicker water socks so they fit and are comfortable.If you wet wade to fish , these Frog Toggs wading shoes grip wet rocks, allow you to hike to the stream in comfort and safety and protect your ankle while giving extra ankle stability.Just prepare to use trial and error to get the right size.Update after multiple uses: I love these . So easy to put on and off. I use them to wade while flyfishing and the sole grips the bottom very well. The ankle support design works well. These are also great for hiking up and down slopes to the stream. For comfort, do add a sport, waterproof type insole which makes your feet happy at end of fishing. These are 5+ stars after you get the right size.Update:Used these for a season and boots are like new. Excellent wet wading boots for all type stream bottoms. Also, excellent for the hike down to the stream which can be much more difficult than the wading in the stream.I recommend putting a gel type insole for added comfort.Now 2 years later ...2023....I have used the boots for several seasons and they are still in great shape . The sole is in like new shape in spite of wading and walking on rocks during every fishing session. The grip on rocks continues to be outstanding . Great ankle support and boot shape are still there. These boots hold up.

I have used these as wading boots for trout and salmon for about three months. In those three months, they have lasted about forty-ish days of heavy fishing and wading.Pros:CheapDecent fitThick soleCons:1. Zipper has no locking mechanism (they come unzipped while walking in the water often)2. Very slippery Soles, walking on wet rocks with no vegetative growth to give hold is a death sentence3. Seams and stitching are beginning to peel away from the boot

These do great on the beach and handle the sand well. Great value.

Very durable, to me seems size runs a little on the big size.
