I've read the threads on Orvis boots etc. but anybody have pros or cons on Bass Pro brand?

I bought a pair for a recent trip to the Bahamas. I had no complaints. They were comfortable and held up to the sharp coral rocks in some areas. I can't speak for the longevity you will get out of them, as they are brand new, but they were a good value for someone like me who uses that type of wading boot sporadically.

I like the World Wide Sportsman (Tan) they are cut wide and priced right and if you get 3 years out of them for around $40.00 that's a DEAL!

I have a pair. Yes, they are cheaper than any I've ever seen, but they are also a great boot.

My opinion of the Bass Pro Flats boots are not nearly as kind as those of the previous posters. The velcro strap is designed to go around your leg on the
"opposite side of the zipper" so it causes the side zipper to un-zipp, letting in
sand, etc. The zipper will not stay zipped on my boots w/ the strap secured or not. Although the boots were very inexpensive (cheap), if they won't stay
zipped - they're worthless in my opinion. Just my $0.02

I just saw World Wide Sportsman Flats boots @ Bass Pro for 19.95. This seems like one hellova deal to me.

I bought a pair of the world wide sportsman boots the tan ones for my recent trip to the keys. Fished those boots all day long every day for 2 weeks and never had problem on the sand, rocks coral etc.. I think i paid 20 bucks for them in the keys. I strongly reccommend them. My 2 cents!!!
