Default Wader problems

Bought the Mag 2s from academy to see how I liked wading. Love being in the water but leaked on first trip. Returned leaked on first trip. Went back and got a 3rd pair and didn't take them out the box untill I was about to get in and leaked. What's brand do y'all use? I'm done with mag 2s

Not sure if im going with neoprene or breathable. Simms has a model just over 200 and I will shell out the extra 100 to stop getting soaked and freezing the whole time. Just not sure they gonna be as good as the high dollar Simms

Had two pair of wade lights lasted a year each, then went to neoprene with wade boots going on five years. Use wade boots to wade in when water warms up.

Default Simms

I have tried every wader on the market. True, Simms is a sponsor but you get what you pay for.

They will give you years and years of dry wading and comfort. Wear some fleece underneath and you will stay toasty warm in 50 degree water temps. They wade in Alaska with them. Their warranty is beyond reproach also. Their low ends are better than most on the market. Good Fishin!!!

Do the lower priced Simms hold us as good as the others?

I have the camo gamewinners and they stay in the bed of my truck. They are neoprene. 2 years and no leaks yet! Think I caught them on sale for 69.99 or so.

Default Neopremes in the Spring.

Neopremes are good if you do not mind sweating like a hog this time of the year.Simms low ends are fine! Another week or 2 and we can all wet wade.
