The Boundary Waters Catalog featuring Chota


Chota Footwear is our choice for dependable canoeing and kayaking shoes and boots. Chota makes an innovative line of paddling and watersports footwear and handwear items each designed to work exceptionally well when wet.

Chota's founder, Frank Bryant, has been paddling canoes for over 40 years. He not only invents all of the products at Chota, he personally tests them as well.

Chota uses only premium-quality materials, and they work directly with each of their manufacturers to assure the highest standards of quality.

At Piragis Northwoods Company and the Boundary Waters Catalog we've come to rely on Chota Quetico Trekkers for our Boundary Waters Canoe Camping Trips. No other shoe handles portages like Trekkers.

Piragis Northwoods Company is now your Exclusive Source for Chota's all-time best selling portage shoe:
