These particular boots are (Korkers Terror Ridge) $179.99, I have a link to them on Amazon in the description. Korkers also has boots with the same sole changing system for $109.99, $139.99 and $149.99. The material the boots are made out of affects the cost. The Carbide Spike Sole costs $69.99 separately. Korkers also makes an over shoe that goes over your existing shoes and has the same Carbide Spikes starting at $79.99 up to $99.99. In the videos coming out this Saturday and next Saturday you will see them in action on the green algae catching fish.

@MattsSaltwaterFishing Жыл бұрын
I have heard that some people wear golf shoes or track spikes at the jetties but I have no personal experience with them. That being said the the Korkers use carbide tipped spikes where as the others don't. That carbide tip is what bites in to the granite/rock that you won't get with regular steel.

Having used the felt soles and the carbide spikes the past 6 months I can see how the spikes are very useful. The downside I would see with the felt/stud combo is that they might not be big enough to dig into the thick green algae.
