1557, Waders
Posted by , Mon Aug-19-02 04:37 AM
I am going to buy some new waders and was wondering what the group thought about the breathable types of materials that they make waders out of now. I have a pair of neoprene waders that have seen their last days. I was pleased with these but was thinking of trying something new. Any help that you guys can give me would be great.
Thanks
Dan

Breathable waders are fantastic. If you use them regularly though you're going to have to spend some money. I've tried cheaper hodgmans breathables and two different pairs of top end Cabelas breathables and they've all started leaking badly within 5-10 trips. I'm now using a pair of Simms lightweight breathables (about $200). I've used them about 20 times with no problems. From what I hear, if you really are going to use these waders, Simms and Patagonia are the way to go.
