Noticed the left foot is leaking a little. It is the neoprene bootie. Is there anyway to fix it?

I've had a hard time finding anything that'll patch the neoprene feet. I've patched rubberized boots and the legs of breathables, but can't seem to get breaches in the feet to stay sealed.

And what fisherman doesn't deserve a new pair of toggs now and then?

There is a special kind of glue/patch that I got that is made for neoprene waders. It's been a couple years since I used it, Can't remember the name. I'll look for it and get back to you.. It was a mail order thing.

We used to use neoprene glue to fix our wetsuits.
They used to sell it at surf or dive shops.

I used to fixed my wetsuits (same material) with a repair glue from a surf shop.

Silicon rubber adhesive. It is cheap and stays flexible. Turn you waders inside out. Smear it and push it into the material. Let it dry for a day or two and you are good to go!
