The Simms Tributary Wading Boot is the definition of a dependable workhorse: a classic, great-fitting wading boot built with the rugged materials, supportive feel, and sure-footed traction anglers need for day-in, day-out time on the river. Whether you’re stepping off a gravel bar, scrambling down a steep bank, or wading through mixed cobble and current, Tributary Boots deliver reliable performance without unnecessary frills—just proven Simms function where it counts.
The upper combines rugged synthetic leather and breathable mesh, reinforced with scratch rubber overlays in high-abuse areas to take the hits from rocks, logs, and boat decks. Corrosion-resistant lacing hardware stands up to wet conditions and repeated use, while a fully-gusseted tongue helps keep sand, gravel, and streamside debris from sneaking inside the boot during long wades and hikes.
Inside, a full neoprene lining boosts durability and makes the boot easy to slide on and off—especially when you’re dealing with wet waders and cold hands at the tailgate. Underfoot, Simms’ proprietary multi-directional lugged rubber outsole provides stable traction for walking and wading, giving you confidence on slick banks, muddy access points, and submerged terrain.
If you’re looking for a durable, supportive fly fishing wading boot that fits right, protects well, and grips with purpose, the Simms Tributary is a proven choice for trout streams, smallmouth rivers, and anywhere your wading seasons take you.
