Just got a paper from Orvis that listed Korkers for $99., if anyone is interested. GG
 
got a pair of 10's for sale only used a couple times 50.00
 
Just a heads up these boots are only available in sizes 8,9 an 10 and are discontinued which means no replacement parts can be purchased. This is the problem with buying Korkers (or any boot with critical replacement parte...ie.. BOA lacing system)....is every couple years manufactures come out with a "NEW" model and your favorite boots aren`t just old there USELESS because you cant get replacement parts for them. But..... if you could get them for $50 you could use them for a 1 or 2 seasons and ditch them......wish my foot was smaller sandfly.
 
replacement parts are still available at this time

not entirely true

you mention the BOA lacing system... those are made by BOA for a wide range of products (fishing is just a small market for them) replacement parts will be available)

the issue would be with the Korkers proprietary components of the boot... the method of sole attachment
the new style just came out last year and the older replacement soles are still available
the issue would be warranty/ repair/ returns of the older model boots
which is why in many cases closeouts of backstock discontinued models are not covered under any warranty
and is why they are $50
