Entry level shoe
Have gone through 2 pair of these shoes and they last exactly one season. Too bad they are not sewn as the felts come off the sole. Otherwise the are lighting quite comfortable.

Great beginners boot.
Just starting getting back into fly fishing and found the Orvis Encounter Wading Boot. Boot fits like a dream, and the grip on bottom of a hard river bed is outstanding.Easy on and easy off. I highly recommend this boot for those on a limited budget, like myself.

Don't get fatigued
Power is transmitted to the toes and wading is easy while exploring the riverbed. Vibram sole is safe even in rocky areas.
There is a slight problem with sewing, and the durability of sewing thread and adhesion is low.

Good in rocky bottoms. Light on foot.
Purchased 1 pair soles (felts) coming off after 1.5 years. Returned to store. Orvis replaced. After 1.5 years use soles(felts) came off. Purchased a pair from competitor.

did not hold up
i had this boot in a rubber sole , I had about 3 years and the split in several places on the top and the liner inside came apart. I only used them on the beach. so there was nothing to tear them, it is all sand. i chatted and sent orvis an email, and was told they have new and other wading shoes to buy. i guess they are not going to give me a replacement .so much for 100 % satisfaction.

Absolutely the best value for your money
I purchased these new from a person that bought one size too big. I take a size ten, but most boots size 10 are too small with the padded bootie on waders. These fit perfect with lots of wiggle room for toes. Even with heavy socks for COLD water. The toe itself appears to be a little bit large to accommodate for the extra room required. The fabric eyelets on the bottom sinch up tight, the hooks have two rivets to hold them on. The metal D ring is there to hook on to your stone guard. The loop on the back on the boot is actually large enough to be of some use. I have owned several pair of wading boots. (I fish a lot) This product achieves that magic spot, where you might spend more than twice the money but you won't get a better boot. I have purchased ORVIS product before and I know they stand behind their merchandise.

Zero Quality
Among purchasing several Orvis fly fishing items over the years (5 rods, multiple waders and wading boots, etc) this is by far the most disappointing item in terms of quality. The entire sole (not just felt) simple separated from the upper part on BOTH boots (pic attached). Pretty disappointing.
