More than just a face lift-Chota's Legendary STL Plus features enhanced styling, function, and durability while retaining the comfort and stability that makes this boot the standard by which others are judged. Upgraded lace guides make donning the STL Plus almost as easy as stepping into your favorite slippers. One pull on the QuickLace, hook in, slide the barrel lock down, and you are ready to go. The molded heel counter enhances support and features a distinctive "Kick Off" Plate. This lightweight but heavy-duty wading boot features uniquely designed rubber Cleat Bases, which allow for the addition or removal of Chota's steel or carbide cleats as wading conditions demand. Laying flush with the bottom of the "Dark Grey" Polypropylene felt sole, each Cleat Base is strategically placed, tapped and ready to accept our steel or carbide cleats. Unique "Micro-Screen" ports allow for rapid and complete drainage while blocking out rock scree particles. The genuine leather upper is specially treated for water-resistance.
