Ray-Guard Reef Boots were designed for the coastal angler who wades reef structure to catch bait or trophy trout, or for those who like site casting from the deck of the boat. A hard soled bottom combined with 4 layers of vulcanized rubber provide excellent protection from reef and other underwater structures while remaining lightweight and comfortable fitting. These boots are excellent for beach wear or for the rugged conditions while wading, and they can be used in combination with our new Ray-Guard Shields to provide complete protection from underwater urchins as well.
