Dark Lightning Breathable Insulated Chest Waders, Perfect for 4 Seasons Fly Fishing Stocking Foot Waders for Men and Women

For context, this is coming from someone who is replacing her $200 Simm’s waders.I had been wearing my Simms for 5 months when they started to leak. I wear them for 40 hours a week, and I bushwhack through all kinds of vegetation, so I probably just abused them too much. They were my first waders so I don’t know if that’s the general durability for waders.My seasonal job ends in November, so I needed a new pair just for mid-September through November. I bought these because they were cheap and I only needed them to hold up for 6 weeks.I had been wading around with wet legs for weeks, so anything that kept me partially dry was going to be amazing.I’m writing this on 10/7. These have held up since I started wearing them on 9/22. That’s honestly more than I expected given the price and the amount of abuse I put them through.I do miss the luxury of the hand warming pocket of my Simms. The zipped pocket on this pair seems smaller, but possible more waterproof.What I am most impressed about is that the shoe hooks for the gravel guards have stayed intact. On my Simms, they lasted two days. These are holding on great.I am a shoe size 8, 5’4”, 140 lb woman. I bought the smalls. The foot is snug but I’d take that over having too much material. The torso doesn’t seem quite long enough, causing a wedgie, but the elastic of the straps is pretty forgiving (borderline too stretchy).I am so happy with these. I am skeptical that they’ll last me long, but for the price, I am very pleased.

I bought these for my son-in-law, and he loves them!

Gets the job done very well. Went by the size chart and got the perfect fit.

Love not having hard boots so I can wear different shoes with them.

A solid pair of waders. A bit snug around the nether regions, but a solid pair of waders none-the-less. Heavyweight and pretty warm in cold water. I am 5'9" and 212 pounds and a large is a perfect fit. Just remember these are a slight snug around the nether regions, but I think it is because of the integrated belt. Not enough to worry about.

Bought these for my husband who is about 6 months into fly fishing. They fit great on him- size large which is his usual sizing. Warm and still plenty of room for layering. He’s been out in them 3 times hiking through trees/branches and rocky terrain and had zero tears or punctures. He loves the hand warmer at the chest. Definitely recommend for budget or newbie waders. Great quality for price!

I purchased this product to do some fly fishing. At first I was very happy with the purchase, as the waders were waterproof, fit as described, and did the job needed.Unfortunately, the second time I went fishing I noticed that one of my legs was filling with water. After getting out of the River I saw the two holes/punctures that had appeared.Not sure where they came from and very sad to loose the waders so soon.Going to attempt to patch up the holes with extra material provided by manufacturer. Next time will probably go for something a little more durable.Also if you have a size 13/14 foot, go With an XXL

It's really hard to find a low cost fishing wader that doesn't leak or at least lasts 1 year. That's just the honest truth about fishing waders in this price range. I purchased these to be a quick hold over until I get my next pair of expensive waders. They did not have any holes in them on the first several wades... I will continue to evaluate and see if they make it into a few more uses or last over the summer. Reminder for everyone.. store breathable fishing waders only after rinsing them with fresh water and store them indoors within a conditioned space. Don't store them in a hot garage or truck as those are the sort of things that causes the seams to degrade even faster. Overall I"m fairly happy with the performance during this short duration. I also liked the fit of the 'small' and it had an appropriately sized boot foot. Too many 'small' sized waders and neoprene boot foot ends that are sized for a 'squatch' :-( ... but these were well sized.

Spent a good seven hours in a river recently and everything I had on underneath was bone dry.

Hallo, eigentlich ist es eine schöne Wathose.Leider ist die Naht der Beine an der Innenseite. Bekannte Hersteller haben diesen Fehler erkannt und legen die Naht an die Vorderseite der Beine, as verhindert ein durchscheuern der Naht beim laufen.
