I'm looking at buying a pair of the Banded insulated breathable waders. If you have a pair give me your thoughts on them. Thanks

Not much info on the old thread about them. I might just go with the cabelas brand.

Buy them

Most comfortable waders I have ever hunted until they fell apart and started leaking within a year. Will never buy a set of banded waders again. Plus chad belding is a douche.

Go cabelas

My banded waders lasted 2 seasons until the front hand pocket stitching ripped. Also noticed a leak in one of the boots. The size ran big and the waders were bulky overall. I won't be buying another pair..

I don't know who Chad Belding is and don't care to look him up. But I love my Banded insulated waders. Almost like hunting in a sleeping bag.

Duh, he was the principal on Saved by the Bell.

I have a pair of the Game Winner Breathable waders from Academy. They are very comfortable. The only recommendation I can make about them is get a size larger. The boots run a little small.

This is the link if you want to take a look at them.

Anymore reviews? I'm either going to get another pair of macks or banded.

Talked to a guy yesterday that deals with the Honey brake and they have switched to bannded instead of Drake. And he said they are coming out with a new pair soon that is supposed to fix the seam problem.

I've hunted in mine for roughly 40-50 hunts since December of 2014. I have the breathable (non-insulated) waist high waders, I've used them mostly in timber, and some field hunts. I've put them through some tough stuff in the timber wading around and walking over dry land last year when the water was low. I have a very small leak in the left knee, I do not notice it until I take off my waders, it is probably due to walking through briars or buck brush.

I'll be buying another pair or two for next season. They are by far the most comfortable waders I own.
