Good waders for the price. Retiring mine after about 2.5 years
Okay so I have used my waders for a couple years now and I feel I can give an honest review at this point. First off, the first pair i received leaked slightly around the knee seam. it was a super slow trickle that took an hour or two for me to notice my leg getting wet. Oh well, i kept on fishing and then cleaned and dried them out before returning them. I returned them for a new pair (which I received before I had even returned the first pair, so talk about great customer service) and I have put these through hundreds of hours of being submerged now without any issues. I use these waders for tube fishing and spend hours with everything from my butt down in the water. I have also waded through flooded woodlands up to my chest without issues, although I did not slog through heavy brush or thorns, so hunters may need something more robust. The waders are relatively comfortable although I have not owned other brands to make comparisons to. They are fitted by shoe size and I find my boots are comfortable as long as I wear socks. In the warmer part of the year I wear board shorts or basketball shorts and socks, and during the winter I wear long underwear, sweats and thick winter socks as the boots are not insulated well and your feet will get cold if submerged in cold waters for long periods of time. The waders are easy to clean (spray them with a hose and a use a light scrub brush to remove any mud), and dry pretty quickly (I just hang dry mine) Boots are solid and comfortable enough for a rubber boot, with good trends (I have not slipped on any embankments or deep mud). I spent time looking around for reasonably priced chest waders and i paid around 90$ for these when I bought my pair in 2018 and it looks as though the price has gone down since then. While I am finally retiring my pair now as they have sprung another leak that I cant seem to plug above the right boot I am satisfied with my purchase overall and would recommend the brand as I have friends who owned more expensive brands and theirs wore out after 2 to 3 years of use as well.
