Actually what Dalton mentioned is not that crazy, I remember as a kid when the stocking foot waders first came out the wading boots consisted of a wool sock and an oversize pair of Chuck Taylor's or similar sneaker/boot setup at least that's what I remember. I have some old pictures from my dad of guys doing this, also as a kid we would take a pair of hip boots and glue carpet to the bottom to make the rubber bottoms less slippery. I would not recommend this today especially with all that's available, I just through away two old pair (Gary Borger wading shoes) a few weeks back I would have given them away if I knew anyone had an interest in them. Anyway I see Orvis has a basic pair for $90 and I get a 25$ discount coupon from them all the time so $65 is decent I'm sure llbean, cabelas, etc have some inexpensive options. I would go this route have good footwear so you don't fall, slip, etc in the river and get hurt or worse.
