Been there, bought mine from ebay. One small problem, there's different ankle diameters in latex boots. I bought a pair and never checked, guess what ?, they were the wrong size. They have to match the trouser leg diameter.

 

I have a pair of Yak Khamsin's . I sent them off to http://www.hammond-drysuits.co.uk/home.asp

they made a top notch job of bonding the correct boots on. With the correct cag sealed to them they make a good alternative to a dry suit. No more wet feet, that's for sure.

Neil,

 

If you don't mind me asking, how much did they charge you ?

 

Thanks.

I'm sure it was about £34.00 plus £9.50 for next day return carrier. To be honest I can't remember. It was certainly worth it anyway. Often wondered about getting one of the latex waist bands fitted to a pair of stocking foot breathable waders?

well i decided to try and do it my self ,and i just tested them for being water tight (in bath tub) it seems to be working fine

easy job to do (maybe not as long lasting as a pro job?) so i should now have dry feet for the grand total of £16
