There are obvious and not-so-obvious dangers inherent with wading. Following these tips will help you experience a safe and enjoyable trip. Use a wading staff to feel the bottom before stepping.Never wade alone.Always wear waders that fit properly.Wear a wading belt to create a seal between your body and the wader.In rivers and streams, identify potential dangers down current such as waterfalls, log jams, or undertows before entering the water.Walk slowly, smoothly, and carefully.Wear a personal floatation device.Be aware of tides, currents, and water level changes.If you fall, don't panic. Don’t fight the current, work with it. Allow the current to drift you downstream as you work your body towards the bank.Never continue wading if your waders are full of water.Breathable Wader Key Fit Points - Men Size Max Inseam Max Girth Max Foot Small 32" 43" 9.5 Medium 33" 45" 10.5 Large 35" 48" 11.5 XLarge 36" 51" 12 XXLarge 37" 55" 13 Medium Stout 33" 50" 10.5 Large Stout 35" 54"11.5 XLarge Stout 36" 57" 12 XXLarge Stout 37" 64" 13 Medium Tall 36" 45" 10.5 Large Tall 37" 47" 11.5 XLarge Tall 38" 51" 13 For short stouts subtract 3" from the inseam.

Excellent Waders!
After convincing my wife to let me get an early Father's Day gift of a full set of fly fishing gear, I set out looking for the best quality products at the best price. After reading several online reviews on waders, having some real-world experience with different varieties, and trying on several different brands and sizes at my local outdoor supply store - I went to Amazon.com! I found these and instantly knew I had come across a can't-pass deal. These same waders cost $130 at my local store - on sale! I had actually settled on a very basic pair of breathable chest waders - with no pockets, reinforced knees, gravel guard, or any other features - which were on sale there for $89.These have excellent reviews and, in my opinion, are the best breathable waders for the money. I bought the X-Large Short Stout size and they fit perfectly. I love the breathable material. As soon as you step out of the water, your legs begin to ventilate - compared to classic neoprene waders that remain stuffy and "tropical" inside throughout the day. There were no holes or leaks in mine, but I love that they came with a repair kit with patching instructions. The gravel guards clip onto my Korker wading boots, and were very successful in keeping gravel out of them.The pockets are plentiful, large, and easily accessible. They are very easy to get in and out of. The reinforced knees are very nice, and the waders look good overall.I highly recommend this product to anyone in need of breathable chest waders. I challenge you to find a better bang-for-your-buck option out there!

Great Waders for price range. With update
Previously I have owned Simms waders and I needed a new pair but I really didn't wanna go drop from 350-750 depending on model on a pair of Simms waders but I still wanted a quality pair of waders. So I got these waders for about 1/3 the price of a pair of sims waders. Are Simms waders better ? Of course. But at the price point are Simms waders 3x better? Most definately not. When I opened the box I was pleasantly surprised that these didn't look like $100 waders they actually looked good. The build quality was good material was good seams were taped. So now it was a happy me. The size. I am 6'2" 225lbs with size 11 ft and I ordered an XL and the fit is damn near perfect. There is a bit of play all the way around so I don't feel trapped but not so much were I feel like you could fit another person in here with me. The belt is a nice feature as well. The socking foot could be a tad smaller but I knew it was gonna be aSize to big anyways. They fit beautifully in my size 11 Simms boots and I am overall super happy with my initial impression upon unboxing and trying on. Now to see how they hold up. I will write a review in a couple months time cause I usually spend 3 days a week In the water so we will see if they stand the test of time. Ok so almost 3 months have past and I am happy to say the waders are holding up beautifully. I have used them maybe 30 times and still just as waterproof. I do take care of them and properly dry them but I am very happy with my purchase. One thing they could do to improve waders is attach either belt loops to waders or Velcro so you can attach Velcro belt holders. I lost my belt first day which sucks. So I want. Elf loops

Good Stuff
I purchased these waders a few days before my first two fly fishing trips ever. I preferred the stocking foot option so that I could get a set of boots that were more versatile than the conventional lug bottom rubber boots that come on the complete wader sets. I am a short guy, stocky build, so the sizing is a bit awkward for me but that's no news, sizing sucks for me on everything. At 5'5 with a 34" waist and 30" inseam, the mediums are about 2-3 inches too long but fit well around the midsection. The neoprene booties are entirely too big though. I wear a size 9 wading boot and these waders said they fit up to a 10.5... Yeah, well, they can fit up to about a size 13. I also ordered a size small wader, but sent them back when the waist and butt was too tight and the booties were still 4 sizes too big... doesn't make any sense to me, and that's why I gave these waders 4 stars instead of 5.So other than the neoprene booties being ridiculously huge in proportion to the rest of the waders, these are really great. I have worn them both as chest waders, and rolled down with the belt holding them as hip waders as well. Because they are lightweight, you can hike around in them for a bit without overheating. I have done quite a few up and downstream hikes of a mile or two in 80 degree heat without getting hot. They are comfortable, the pockets are handy, the included wading belt is a must for safety, straps adjust easily and stay put, and the neutral color wears good with dirt/moss from the stream. Because they have neoprene booties, you will get a bit damp from the mid-calf down, but even after a few hours standing in the river up above my knees, I was still dry enough that a couple minutes sitting on the tailgate dried me off. Probably just condensation from my warm legs and the cold river/lake water. Overall, I definitely recommend them, and I have to a few fly fishing buddies. And for the price point, you can't beat these with any other wader I have seen... They're comparable to lightweight waders twice or three times the price! Buy them... now... And be happy.
