Embodiment Construction

[0075]The term “stockingfoot” refers to a fishing wader in which the bootie (or foot) of the wader fits inside of a fishing (or wading) boot. Stockingfoot waders offer versatility in that the wading boot can also act as a hiking boot when it is necessary to hike into a fishing spot, and they may be worn with different types'of wading boots (felt sole, rubber sole, studded, etc.). The alternative to stockingfoot waders are bootfoot waders, in which the fishing boot is attached to the wader. Bootfoot waders are preferred for cold water fishing and by surfcasters and saltwater anglers, where there is a greater chance of salt and grit getting into the boot than in ordinary fishing conditions; they are also considered to be warmer than stockingfoot waders. Stockingfoot waders, on the other hand, are considered by some to be easier to put on, easier to pack away, and generally preferred for all other fishing situations. Stockingfoot waders combined with a lack-up boot provide greater ankl...

Abstract

A wader comprising a body portion and a bootie. The bootie is attached to the body portion. The bootie is comprised of a toe piece, an ankle piece, and a sole piece. The toe piece, the ankle piece, and the sole piece are adhered together to form the bootie. The toe piece has an outside surface, and the toe piece comprises a raised neoprene area on the outside surface. The ankle piece has an inside surface, and the ankle piece comprises a raised neoprene area on the inside surface. The toe piece, the ankle piece, and the sole piece are all comprised of a neoprene material. The raised neoprene area on the inside surface of the ankle piece is configured to wick moisture up and away from the foot of the wearer.
