I used to have breathable waders & neoprenes. However, I found that I don’t really need the breathables,……….as when the water warms to the low 50’s, I go straight to wet wading.
The Orvis waders have metal studs already attached.
As I have seen in other states, felt soles are being outlawed to prevent invasive species from spreading, so I figured I am ahead of the curve.

Wet wading in 50 degree water your a maniac
