I read some of the reviews and I would be super hesitant to buy these waders from what I read in the first row of reviews. You can get a pair of Simms from Ebay for around 2-3 c-notes why not just get some of those and be worry free?

Don't forget to pick up a float tube with those waders. :LOL:

Hmmm, do they make float tubes that big?

In the first row of reviews, 10 of 12 people gave them either 4 or 5 stars. I could see a problem if every review claimed it to be an inferior product.
I cant find any reviews on the Simms products, although most say they are great waders.

Thanks for lookin out though:LOL:

They are leaking at the seams of the pants from what I have read not only on that link I provided. For 2-3 c-notes I wouldn't even bother. Simms is where it's at spend your money wisely. You can find Simms waders for the same price.:Wink:

I happen to have some and after 8 trips they now have a hole in the foot and are coming apart by the inseam. In my opinion it seems they don't have enough room for bigger legged people. I have rather skinny legs...:Rolls Eyes:

Thanks for the input guys!

AngryAgent, thanks for giving me a push in the right direction.

I went and bought the Simms Headwaters today.

I had planned on maybe the G3's but after comparing them to the
Headwaters, there were alot of features on the G3's that I don't
think I will need.
