ATTENTION: The specified wading size already takes into account the space required for the neoprene booties of your waders. So if your normal street shoe size is 10 we recommend that you also take the wading boots in this size.
The wading boots CREEK DARK were developed by us in cooperation with the company Andrew (Montebelluna - Italy). The model CREEK DARK is a technical wading boot of superlatives, for fly fishing in alpine environment, characterized by torrential mountain creeks, rocks, often long walks before fishing and sometimes also necessary climbing.
These wading boots are relatively stiff due to their field of use in alpine terrain. Nevertheless, they are comfortable to wear and provide maximum protection and safety in difficult terrain.
After more than 1,000 successfully completed test hours in the 2015 season, we are confident the CREEK DARK model is among the best wading boots currently available. It can easily compete with the flagship models of the most prestigious US brands (Far East production). These wading shoes are 100% made in Italy.
The CREEK DARK is designed for guides and all those fly fishermen who do a lot of fishing trips in mountainous surroundings and prefer technical wading boots that are almost indestructible.

The table below shows the internal length in cm for each wading size. Attention: in order to be comfortable in wading boots, the sum of the length of your foot + the thickness of the neoprene feet of your waders multiplied by two (because you have to calculate the one at the toe and the one at the heel) + about 5-6 mm of free space, must be less or at most equal to the indicated useful length..
