Status of Felt Restrictions in the United States
Since 2009 there has been an increasing move toward restricting the use of felt soled waders and wading boots. Effective Jan 1, 2012 Rhode Island has banned the use of felt soles in both fresh and salt water. With the Alaska statewide ban also taking effect on Jan 1 there will be four states (Alaska, Maryland, Rhode Island and Vermont) with statewide bans. Missouri will be implementing a ban on felt in trout waters effective Mar 1, 2012. See The Science of Felt (2009) to look at the science driving the move to eliminate the use of felt soled waders.
