Eugene L. 03.26.24
Award-winning outdoor footwear maker Korkers has brought out their new Wade Lite Wading Boot Collection. This new Spring/Summer 2024 collection features two new wading boots, the Chrome Lite BOA and the Stealth Sneaker. Along with the two new boots, Korkers also has compatible XTRA-BITE screw-in carbide cleats for the Wade Lite Collection. This collection was designed to give anglers a wading boot with ultra-light performance and uncompromising durability. The Wade Lite boots are constructed like athletic sneakers to be light, low profile, and nimble, so they aren’t a chore to wear on the water.

Unique to the Wade Lite Collection, these boots feature a fixed sole construction (non-interchangeable) that is made with the new Korkers Kling-On Rock performance outsole. This is a proprietary sticky rubber sole compound that is light, flexible, and provides positive grip on both dry and wet rocks. The razor-siped tread design sheds water readily to ensure sure-footing with every step. Embedded nylon anchor plates in the outsole allow for the addition of Korkers new XTRA-Bite carbide screw-in cleats for anglers who want even more traction.
“We challenged our design team to develop the lightest weight, highest performing wading boots in the industry and they delivered in spades,” commented CEO Brian Chaney. “Not only did they deliver exactly what we requested, at $149.99 MSRP for the Stealth Sneaker™ and $179.99 MSRP for the Chrome Lite™ BOA® they did so at an unbelievable value to the consumer,” Chaney continued.
