I go through waders like underwear. Don't matter what kind/price I get they all end up with holes. I average probably 2 pair a season. So, I started going with the solid brown color Magellan neoprenes they sell at Academy. They are $90. Best bang for your buck IMO. Keep you warm and hold up pretty well. The Game Winner ones are cool too but don't hold up any better than the Magellans and they are $130.

warm weather, your gonna be a little toasty. cold weather, your going to be a little toasty. They are breathable and very warm. Very comfortable and the tummy pocket is very roomy. I can keep my wallet, phone, and half a box of shells in there and still have room for my hands

IMO 3mm is the way to go. The cabelas ones like Jordan posted in 3m is under a hundred. Found a pair just like those but with the pocket behind the hand warmer and Velcro shoulder straps. Ducks unlimited made em but can't seem to find them anymore.

If I can't walk through the water with my hip boots.... I use the boat or find a way to walk around the deep spots.
