Ask Curated a question about this product:

The Orvis Ultralight has reduced weight without sacrificing support and traction. They are designed more like a hiking boot and less like the conventional wading boot. This wading boot is good for anglers on a budget, concerned about weight of gear, and those anglers who often wet wade.

Key Features:

  • Lightweight Design These are the lightest boots Orvis has ever manufactured and is 30% below the average weight of most wading boots in the industry.

  • Technical Sole These boots have a Vibram sole that provides reliable traction and a Vibram EVA midsole to keep the angler comfortable on long days.

  • Durability Features High-wear zones are sprayed with an abrasion-resistant rubber and the mini ripstop inserts both add additional durability without adding bulk.

  • Women's Specific These are designed and built specifically for a woman's foot.

The Orvis Ultralight women's wading boot is one of the best wading boots on the market. The hiking boot design is very comfortable, lightweight, and supportive. Orvis also made these boots extremely durable. These boots can be worn all-day fishing and feel like premium hiking boots.

Comfortable for hiking and wet wading

Originally posted at www.orvis.com on Aug 11, 2024
Usage: Hiking on and off trail through thick vegetation to get to streams, wading in rivers and cold streams with rocky, sandy, and muddy bottoms. Sizing: I am normally a wide size 8.5, and ordered a 9 to be able to fit both a thick pair of wool socks and neoprene booties/gravel guards. With the socks and the neoprene the fit is excellent. No rubbing or pinching. Functionality: Was initially worried these would be too stiff for hiking, but they actually work great. Surprisingly comfortable, lightweight. Water drains pretty well, and even hiking 6-10 miles with wet socks all day, no blisters or chafing. Grippy enough on their own that I have not needed studs so far. Using neoprene gravel guards that fold over and hook to the front clip has been successful at preventing mud, sand, and gravel from getting inside the boots, even when sinking into knee-deep mud. For summer use, I do not use waders, just the boots and gravel guards, with quick-dry hiking pants tucked into the gravel guards. This has been working well. Durability: Have not had these long enough to say.

Matt helped me out of the fog and the overwhelming state I was in trying to buy my first Flyfishing set up…. I would still be fishing for gear a month from now if it wasn’t for him sticking his hand out to me.
5 /5
I’ve dealt with more than a handful of folks on fb marketplace that were downright aggressive, mean, and unhelpful to me over a series of exchanges in my search for gear. Matt was everything but. He not only pointed me in the right direction but he was friendly and knowledgeable as well. I needed all the help I could get and he was there. Thanknu again Matt.

I'm an intermediate angler with little knowledge of equipment. Rylyn was very responsive to all my questions, even the ones I thought were stupid. Very open about what he does and how he is paid. I highly recommend him.

Danny is very knowledgeable about fly fishing while still being approachable and easy going. He answers questions in a straightforward and honest way without applying any pressure to make a sale. In my case, i truly felt like he wanted me to get the best gear at the best price.

I bought an open box Orvis fishing rod and it was at a great price. The condition of the rod and the shipping time exceeded my expectations. The information I received from Capt. Mark was accurate and helpful. I would definitely buy from Curated again.

Helped me with some valuable fly fishing knowledge that I lack coming from the conventional fishing world. Hooked me up with a good starter rod and even price matched it with another company. Will be coming back for a reel soon.
