Overboot waders

Barneys Sourdough Slipper Overboot

I came across these type of waders that slip on over regular hunting boots. They sound like a great option for the short period of time one may find himself in knee deep water.

I understand these sell to sheep hunters who need to cross a stream or 2, but I am wondering if they would be applicable for a moose hunt. By that I mean standing in water while working on a bull in say 2 foot deep water---not walking much or hunting in them.

I hate wearing regular hip waders for a week straight when I'm only in the water for a very short time. So I bought the La Crosse Alpha burley 18" boots and love 'em, but obviously I am limited in water depth. These  things sound what I want, but I need to know if they will do what I expect from them.

Does anyone here have a set of these? Your thoughts...
