When it comes to wading boots, details matter. Every fabric, layer, stitch, and component has to lock together in a harmony of thoughtful design. RS Boots are meticulous. From the innovative and exclusive tri-tiered, stair-step lug patterned we developed with Vibram®; to the Figure-8 ESS rock plate; to the high-density EVA midsole, to the removable Ortholite® insole—we vetted every detail—and that’s just in the soles! Bonded seams, double lasting, and TPU reinforced uppers make RS Boots abrasion resistant, flexible, and nearly indestructible. A molded toecap protects your feet from rocks and other obstacles. Non-absorbent foam interior cuffs pad and support your lower legs without carrying water. This all adds up to a serious wading boot for anglers who demand traction, comfort, and durability in every step.
Skwala boots accommodate neoprene booties or wading socks, so please use the shoe size you choose for other athletic footwear, half sizes should size up. Check out our sizing video or call us at 833-523-1500 and we can help you out.

"So far so good. The boots are comfortable. The traction is decent too. I like that they also don’t get super stiff once they’re completely dry unlike other wading boots I’ve used in the past. I feel as though they’re worth the price I paid for them. After that purchase, I decided to try out a couple of Your jackets. They’ll get put to the test this coming winter during my Steelhead season in October up here in Alaska. We’ll see how they do? Keep up the good work."
"These boots are bad ass. Lots of space in the toe box and good support for stability. Hopefully they can stand up to my abuse, lots of river miles and hikes to the river."
"I’ve had these boots only a short time after wearing Simms boots for years. I really like how easy it is to get in and out of them. The lacing system is easy and great. The support feels good. The only issue is how large and bulky they are for packing."
"Can't find a fault, it's a very good product. They are sturdy but not so heavy that it's a problem. Build quality is great."
"Everything I want in a boot. Ankle support and grip in the treads! I added Patagonia studs just as an extra layer of safety. Love them!"
"Most comfortable stable boot I have ever owned!"
"Comfortable with great grip. Glad I didn’t add studs before trying them out. They worked really well and a long day wading my feet felt great. I’m sure they will only improve as they break in."
"Very good boot design, comfortable and good support. I hope they last longer than my other brand. “ I follow Troutbitten and Slide Inn, listen to what they say about Skwala!"
"Best wading boots I’ve ever worn. There so much support when hiking, and the traction is amazing—even on the Big Hole River!"
"I’ve got both the Carbon & RS wading boots and waders. The design, construction, materials and comfort are second to none!! I can wear them all day long with absolutely no problem."
