PRO Approach Hiker – Salt
Click image to enlarge
The ultimate wet-wade boot and made to cover miles, our popular PRO Approach Shoe morphs into a salt-perfect hiker specifically designed for the rigors of the marine theatre. The PRO Approach Hiker for saltwater offers generous ankle support required to explore endless flats, jetties, and mangrove muck quickly and safely. It’s built with an Intuition®-based foam footbed that molds around your foot for a custom fit unlike any other wet-wading shoe ever designed. Featuring the same exclusive Michelin® outsole as our PRO Wading boots, these saltwater hikers feature superior wet and dry traction in the boat, and on rocks and notoriously slick docks with a massive bonus: The teal outsole won’t scuff and mark up boat decks. PU cast exterior with a scratch rubber toe for next-level abrasion resistance. The built-in, improved zippered gravel guard with hook-and-loop closures and lace-up interior gives you the best fit possible, and makes a separate set of wading socks unnecessary unless you’re battling cooler water temperatures.

PRO Wading Boots
Click image to enlarge
In an industry-first collaborative effort with Michelin, Orvis introduces the PRO Wading Boot. Built on an outsole compound specifically designed for fly fishing, this revolutionary new sole design is an industry disrupting advance in wet rubber traction. The Michelin Outdoor Extreme outsole offers 25% better abrasion resistance and a resounding 43% improvement in wet rubber tractnnion. Using Michelin tire geometry, it offers a wider footprint for stability, a higher ratio of surface contact, and a lug pattern that reduces shock and improves pressure distribution. The two-layer midsole has a co-molded ESS plate that provides improved stud retention and torsional stability. The shock absorbing Phylon midsole improves “river feel” and compresses less than standard EVA midsoles. Orvis partnered with Ortholite to create a 3D molded X25 insole designed for high-impact sports, delivering maximum comfort and arch support. An industry first cast PU upper eliminates seams while providing a zoned cage for added stability, grip, and extreme abrasion resistance without the added bulk. The boot is higher cut for ankle support and lined with closed-cell foam. Scratch rubber at the toe cap and heel for abrasion resistance, an oversized heel pull for easier on-and-off, and tightly woven laces reduce broken laces. Weight: 50oz. in size 10.
Features:
- Industry-first Michelin Outdoor Extreme outsole for best-in-class wet traction
- 12 strategically placed locations for optional studs
- High-density Phylon midsole offers optimal comfort-to-weight ratio with minimal breakdown over time
- 3D molded Ortholite X25 insole for ultimate support and comfort
- Industry-first PU-casting construction eliminates seams in high wear areas and drastically improves durability
- Quick-drying Clarino microfiber upper for maximum strength-to-weight ratio
- Scratch rubber toe cap and heel for superior protection
- Large heel pull for easy on-and-off
- High-density laces for extended durability
Sizes:
- Mens whole sizes 7-14 (US)

Inspired by the original, our new PRO LT Wading Boots are nearly 10% lighter in an even more nimble platform that retains notable durability. The outsole is constructed of the same best-in-class Michelin® wet rubber traction of the Outdoor Extreme.
