Decent Waders
I was a bit surprised at how well these waders turned out for the price. After 2 duck seasons they held up pretty well. No leaks or damage. They stayed waterproof and kept me dry. There is a big vest pocket for your your phone or extra shell.The soles are not padded, so through in some inserts if you want a more comfortable walk. The only other downside is the waders smell quite strong at first. You will need to leave them outside for quite some time before they smell normal.Overall, this was a good purchase at a great price.

A fine product at a great price!
I bought these to get out on a pond on my property. It's overgrown with crap and I need to rip it all out, work on the inflow and outfall pipes, restack rocks and such. The boots are very grippy and fit my feet well with thick wool socks- I don't "walk out" of the shoes part.The pond water is very cold, but I was comfortable in a thin poly base layer, BDU pants and a fleece top. The fit was just right- not too loose and not too tight. I found the shoulder straps to be wide and stretchy, with good grip on the elastic. The catches are easy to fasten and unclip; they never came undone accidentally. The belt is wide and helps to reduce bulk. I didn't mess with the pockets. The waders seem just a bit stiff in cold water, but to me that helped me stay stable. I could also feel the extra protection in the knee area, and that's good as I'm not sure what all sticks and rocks are along the shore.I didn't rinse the mud and pond plants off the waders when I was done- they seemed to slide right off anyway. I let them drip dry on the back porch and they dried quickly, with no swamp smell. The storage bag is just big enough; a bit bigger would be nice.I think they are a super value for the price. Whoever specced them out did their homework for a well designed product at a super price. The company seems intent on ensuring each person is satisfied with their purchase, so order a set and see if you like them.

Great quality waders, especially for the price
These are good-quality waders at a fair price. I do surf fishing in California for striped bass. I've gone through several pairs of more-expensive stocking-foot waders that always start leaking after a season or so. I decided to give boot-foot waders a try. I have used these new waders around 10 time so far and no leaks. The quality seems really good and there are exterior and interior pockets that I use to hold my cell phone and car keys. The wading belt and suspenders are nice and sturdy. There is an included hanger to suspend the waders by the boots while drying. I like boot foot vs. stocking foot since it is easier to rinse off the sand. The only downside is that boot foot is not as comfortable as stocking foot. My feet slide around a bit in the boots, which feels like it could cause a blister through my socks. My older stocking-foot waders were more comfortable since I'd wear crocs over the stocking feet, which felt nice and snug. I'm content with these boot foot. I will still likely get a second pair of stocking foot for the times when I have a long hike to the fishing spot and need my feet to be more comfortable during that hike. BTW if these waders start to leak I won't hesitate to buy another pair since they are so affordable. I'm happy if the waders last a season or two.

VG waders but Must bare in mind cost of waders
There are ONLY two kinds of waders in this world#1 those that leak#2 Those that are going to leak.I have been through absolutely all of it buying fishing and hunting waders. Bought waders that cost $60-$290 bought Gore-Tex waders bought nylon waders bought neoprene waders.Only had ONE pair of waders last me more than three seasons without leaking. A pair of Red Ball waders made from 1000d cordura and extra ultra heavy duty PVC under the 1000D cordura bonded to the 1000D cordura like it was welded steel. Lasted 10 YEARS before they leaked at all. Then like an idiot tried to cross over a barbed wire fence with them on and that was the end of them.I duck hunt but fish A LOT more with waders talking using my waders for fishing 9-10 months out of the year so I have A LOT of experience with waders.Heck 9/10 nylon non neoprene waders even ones costing $150 to $300 at best were getting no better reviews than these <$60 waders.I am DONE buying waders over $100 because the all of the over $100 dollar waders I bought including ones I paid with tax almost $300 for that were advertised as "tough as nails" waders leaked after 3.5 seasons of careful as possible use. And I take excellent care of my waders.Now my wader purchasing philosophy is odds are overwhelming four pair of $60 waders costing $240 will last me twice as long as one pair of $280 waders. So far my filosophy has proven correct.I just bought these waders for actually my son to use not me, for fishing local lakes in spring till fall. I gave them a shake down use yesterday for 6 straight hours of fishing, and was very happy with them.Again bare in mind these waders with the 15% off coupon cosy under $60 TMD.Now for my review of them.First I would rate these as strictly warmer water water waders as they are of thin material and not insulated so they are excellent for warmer weather fishing as I was last night.AS they are made of thin material I would at ALL COSTS avoid coming into contact with ANYTHING with a sharp point like thorn bushes. Last night all I encountered was soft green weeds and cattails and the waders held up great.Overall I would rate the quality of manufacture very good for waders costing under $60. Their quality of manufacture is on par with waders I have costing $80 but not as well made with thicker materials as waders I own costing $100-$135 I own.waterproof sealed seams and stitched seams were very well done and well sealed especially the seams where the fabric meets the PVC boots. Fit was very good material moves with you and overall save for the boots waders are very comfortable.Shoulder straps are well made and work and adjust well, same for waist belt. Pouches are absolutely minimal but adequate and function well.While waders themselves run accurate for size I bought a XXL-14 because these would be strictly warm weather warm water waders I nore my sons have no plans on wearing anything more than jeans and a short sleeved t-shirt and then a long sleeved sun shirt over that, they fit me very well. If I could order them again I would get the XXXL but boot size 13 VS boot size 14 so I could wear a sweater or lite jacket if need be even a sweater would likely makes these waders feel a bit tight on me, but I am about 50lbs OW.It was 82* yesterday and I didn't overheat or get hot in these waders so they do not make you overly hot or sweat. I normally take a 14 XW boot nand these size 14 boots were mildly to big on me not so large to be a problem or require I return them but size 13 would have been a better fitting choice. So keep that in mind when ordering them. Of all the boots bI have EVER bought on line NEVER once did I have to return a size 14XW shoe or boot because it was to large.Only one use for six continues hours, but they kept me 100% dry as in ZERO moisture or wetness occured.Now for the only negatives and why I gave these waders 4 stars for comfort and not five.The boots are both to big and the PVC to flexible and I wouldn't want to walk a great distance in these and did pack a pair of gym shoes in my fishing tackle backpack so I only wore the waders while fishing which will be SOP as most of the fishing spots my sons and I go to are far far walks.The PVC boots flex so much the water will compress them on your feet, but on your toes is where the problem is. There will be enough force on your toes after about five continuous hours submerged in waist deep water to become notably uncomfortable. No it's not severe or unbearable but definitely noticeable. and becomes somewhat annoying. THis issue is not a dealbreaker for me and I would order another pair of these waders, just one size smaller.But other than the boots running about a size to large and will compress on your toes as I described, I can find no real fault with these <$60 waders and can recommend them to those looking for a pair of <$75 waders for warmer water fishing from spring till fall.Now lets see how many outings my son gest before we break out the patching kit.If you need a pair of warmer weather and water waders and you won't encounter nasty thorny things and your budget is under $70 I strongly recommend you consider these waders.

For tall skinny people with large feet
The quality seems good. Unfortunately a person must be skinny to wear these and without any sweater or other clothing. The size 12 boot fit good and felt comfortable. The waistband was too small, unable to bend over. I’m 6’3 285lb with size 12 boot. The size 14 wader might fit better but the boot would be too big. These product just needs to be tailored better.

What I wanted
I ordered these because I found my Neoprene were just to warm and were restricting my movement. They were fine during later season when weather gets really cold, but I'm 75 and really like my waders to let me move easily with out any restrictions and these fit the bill. To early to see how their durability is but as of now I have made the right choice.
