Ray Guard Reef Boots? I've seen them at Academy and Bass Pro Shops for $119.?

Question

The shoe by itself is about $43 and the "shin guards" are about $29. The only diference I noticed is that for $119, the two don't come separately. Has anybody tried both ways and seen a diference? Also, do I buy in a size that I will or will not need socks? I've used chest waders with socks, but I think water IS going to be inside the reef boots. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

i have not had the occasion to have to wear ray guards but I would recommend that you wear socks just to help in protecting your Achilles tendon.
