    Default Waders

    Need some new waders before this season? What you guys think? Need some that will last a long time.

    You will need luck on your side for them to last a long time. Pros and cons with all of them.

    This will be my 3rd year with these. I have been very pleased with them. I would recommend getting a size larger than what your normal shoe size is.

    Banded for me. Own three pair now. I've put my original pair through approximately 45 days of hunting, all out of state, 90% timber. I've had one small leak that I just ignore due to it being so insignificant.

    Picked up two new pair for this coming season.

    “… duckhunting stands alone as an outdoor discipline. It has a tang and spirit shared by no other sport—a philosophy compounded of sleet, the winnow of unseen wings, and the reeks of marsh mud and wet wool. No other sport has so many theories, legends, casehardened disciples and treasured memories.”
    --John Madson, The Mallard, 1960

    Cabelas Dry-Plus breathable. You won't get cold and they're the most comfortable and durable I've ever had in 55 years of duck hunting.

    Apparently an older pair of 3.5mm mad dog waders will defy time and outlast anything new on the market

    Another vote for Cabelas dry plus breathables. By far most comfortable and durable I have ever owned.
