Second is the low tops - so sun beats down on my ankles (wearing long quick dry pants) and I end up sunburned there unless I also wear nylon socks.

The boot solves the sunburn problem, but not the heat problem being only available in dark colors...

The Nike shoes come from the NikeiD custom shop. If you have $175 to $250 to spend, you can design pretty much anything and they'll make it.
check out the Terrafin. I have a pair and they are very light excellent for shore fishing, fly fishing, boat, and kayak fishing. I have the sage green and don't find them too hot at all. Use the code: CaptainLowe and get 10% off and free shipping.
