Whether you're wading in rivers, trekking along rocky shorelines, or simply want reliable footwear, Simms’ Pursuit Shoe aims to meet those needs. It was designed as wet-wading footwear that features a lightweight, athletic design that emphasizes comfort and functionality. The upper is constructed from durable synthetic materials combined with mesh panels for breathability and quick drainage.

The shoe includes a reinforced toe and heel, offering protection against rocks and other underwater obstacles. The gusseted tongue keeps debris out, while the padded collar and tongue enhance overall comfort. The lacing system provides a secure fit, allowing for quick adjustments on the go. And my favorite part: You can slip into it without lacing by simply pulling the heel strap to create room. I’ve taken to wearing them daily, on the water or off.

The outsole of the Simms Pursuit Shoe is where it truly shines. Equipped with a non-marking rubber sole featuring multi-directional lugs, it delivers exceptional grip on both wet and dry surfaces. The sole is designed to be compatible with cleats and studs.

The comfort is A-plus with its EVA midsole. The overall fit is snug yet comfortable. The materials are designed to withstand the harsh conditions of fishing environments, from abrasive riverbeds to saltwater exposure.

The Simms Pursuit Shoe’s exceptional traction, breathability, and rugged construction make it a standout choice for navigating wet and rocky environments. While the price may be a bit steep for some, the investment is justified by the quality and longevity of the shoe.
