Wading Boots

Wading Boots (stilt stride) are rubber boots that are worn to protect Banjo and Kazooie from various otherwise-damaging terrain, such as Piranha Water in Bubblegloop Swamp. The boots are time-limited, so the pair must work quickly to cross the terrain before they expire. Pressing ends the effect early. Wearing Wading Boots causes Kazooie to walk slower than usual in Banjo-Kazooie, while there is no speed change in Banjo-Tooie. However, jumping is impaired in both games. When alone, Kazooie can use the boots but Banjo cannot. However, they are very infrequently used in Banjo-Tooie anyway.
