Orvis Pro Wading Boot

Orvis collaborated with Michelin (yes, as in Michelin Tires) on the outsoles of these boots, and the aggressive lugs and tacky rubber combat cobble-stoned river beds and algae-slick embankments. If the slope gets too slippery, you can always add studs, although we’ve yet to feel the need. We’re stoked on the slim, lace-up hiking boot styling—the narrow footprint is a blessing when trekking for long distances and/or down-climbing to overlooked honey holes. What’s more, the high-density build delivers unparalleled ankle support.
