Good waders for the price. Retiring mine after about 2.5 years
Okay so I have used my TideWe waders for a couple years now and I feel I can give an honest review at this point. First off, the first pair i received leaked slightly around the knee seam. it was a super slow trickle that took an hour or two for me to notice my leg getting wet. Oh well, i kept on fishing and then cleaned and dried them out before returning them. I returned them for a new pair (which I received before I had even returned the first pair, so talk about great customer service) and I have put these through hundreds of hours of being submerged now without any issues. I use these waders for tube fishing and spend hours with everything from my butt down in the water. I have also waded through flooded woodlands up to my chest without issues, although I did not slog through heavy brush or thorns, so hunters may need something more robust. The waders are relatively comfortable although I have not owned other brands to make comparisons to. They are fitted by shoe size and I find my boots are comfortable as long as I wear socks. In the warmer part of the year I wear board shorts or basketball shorts and socks, and during the winter I wear long underwear, sweats and thick winter socks as the boots are not insulated well and your feet will get cold if submerged in cold waters for long periods of time. The waders are easy to clean (spray them with a hose and a use a light scrub brush to remove any mud), and dry pretty quickly (I just hang dry mine) Boots are solid and comfortable enough for a rubber boot, with good trends (I have not slipped on any embankments or deep mud). I spent time looking around for reasonably priced chest waders and i paid around 90$ for these when I bought my pair in 2018 and it looks as though the price has gone down since then. While I am finally retiring my pair now as they have sprung another leak that I can't seem to plug above the right boot I am satisfied with my purchase overall and would recommend the brand as I have friends who owned more expensive brands and theirs wore out after 2 to 3 years of use as well.

Just great for th money!
I have been up to above my hips in a very cold river, and done great. These are strong and durable, an amazing value for the money. They fit perfectly, are light weight, and absolutely waterproof. The protection against the cold waters is amazing. I fly fish with these and have all the pocket space i need. You can not go wrong with these.

great price
Havent tested these in the water yet but appear very well made, large reinforced knee pads, handwarmer chest pocket and a velcro closure chest flap pocket to keep items secure. I ordered mens size 8 boot, Im 5ft 6" tall, fits me well in the legs, much better that other brands I have bought previously. Comes with web strapping boot hanger and a waterproof cell phone bag.The only adversity is the boots are 200 gram insulation, wish they had 400 gram boots, the Pacific Northwest rivers are very cold. But the size 8 should accomodate 2 socks if needed, for me that is. Very impressed considering the price. Wish they had camo waders for waterfowl season. Save some $$ vs the outfitter stores

Great value for beginner
Function: kept me warm and dry. Have used it for over 50 hours standing in the river with no leakage. It doesn't breathe well so your legs may get damp from sweat, but it doesn't leak. On a cold day I was bone dry after 6 hours in the river up to my waist. Boots were easy to walk in, just size correctly and use thick boot socks.Fit: For slimmer folks, I can't imagine a bigger person fitting these comfortably. The boots are very slim and if you have thick calves like me, they will chafe a bit. Some good high boot socks solved that.Overall: great value for a new angler like me. Decided to get these over the nylon ones and I'm glad I did, they seem durable and very waterproof. I'll be happy with them if they last me 2 seasons before a leak.

Great protection against cold water!
Finely I got the size I ordered, it suits very good, nice and soft. Right after I went to Catskill Mountains - Beverkill river. Worked Great. No leaks, warm and very soft! I love it. Water was about about 43’F!, and I felt very comfortable and warm in it! If you gonna fishing in the winter or early spring time for trout, salmon or still head - that’s gonna be Great buy for any tape of fishermen level! Highly recommend! Dmitriy NY.

No leaks and warm
But two pairs,no leaks in either of them. One set did not come with the accessories but emailed the makers and within 2 weeks I had the accessories they were missing, would definitely recommend for the price. Quality seems decent, we were in waist high water without any leaks or issues and the boots grip well. They do seem potentially easy to accidentally tear a hole putting them on, but take your time and start from your feet to not stress potential leak points. These are my first set but pleased with them.

Tidewe neoprene waders
So far from what I’ve seen so far is that they are well built and comfortable.. still need to field test them…

Warm, dry, good boots
Been using daily for river salmon fishing. Fit well. Warm & dry. Like the heavier weight and stretch as the straps stay up and boots and waders give a stable feel for standing and fishing. Unless you're walking long and hard in warm weather, you won't overheat.

Tested thoroughly all summer long!
Short story: At our cottage we have running water through gravity. Up in the nearby mountain there is a creek with a source that comes from the mountain itself. Water runs within the mountain and through the rocks and ultimately ends up in a lake. The result is very fresh water that's good to drink, so we installed pipes to collect some of it. It's as green as can be, with no emissions, no polluting agents at all. This year we had a bit of an issue with the creek - many trees had fallen in it during an especially harsh winter. Luckily, I had these boots to work with. :)I walked through the creek and the mountain, removed countless obstacles and now the creek is 100% clean again and runs smoothly just like it did decades ago when my grandfather first fell in love with it.The boots are surprisingly comfortable. My feet felt at home in there. However, they are very warm. On my first day using them, I ended up sweating so much that I decided the next time I'd just wear them without my pants on! However, when you actually walk in the water, they will get cooler rather quickly. Don't be afraid though: you won't freeze. In running water, sometimes up to my waist, I felt at ease in those boots. I reckon you'd be fine using them a few degrees below freezing temperatures ( but with pants this time ).The little pocket came in handy more than once. The phone holder is an interesting addition. There is a little repair kit that also comes along with those boots. Very cool.The only negative aspect is that they are a bit too tall for my size. I wear 10'' and it seems like I should've been about 6 feet tall, but I'm a small guy ( 5'6'' ). When I stand still, I sometimes feel like a kid in my dad's clothing. However, when I move, the extra size of the pants make it much easier for me to walk and stretch than my old pair of fishing boots. So there's a good side and bad side to it. I wish we could also get to choose the pants size because here we can only select boot/feet size.Overall I must've used them about 50 solid hours over the course of four months. I am very satisfied so far.

A little bigger than expected but very warm & comfortable.
Went for our first fish this past weekend using these. They were warm & comfortable but the boots are a little larger than expected. Typically wear a size 10.5 and purchased 11 as there were no 1/2 sizes. These were a lot larger than I expected but with a woolen sock they fit okay. The boots themselves could have used a little more support but overall, pleased after my first fishing trip.

Comfortable and fit perfect
Fit is spot on and they are comfortable to walk and sit in.Made with high quality materials and the glue joints are strong and leak free.Boots have just enough play for thicker socks in the cooler weather. Also the boots have a ledge on the back of the heals making it much easier to push the boot off with your other foot or use the edge of something to pull it off. Great after long day!

Warm and dry on chilly opening days
I wear these from May until October and find them very comfortable. Depending on the water temperature (and whether or not I packed wool socks) my toes do eventually get cold and drive me from the water after a couple of hours during the early spring.
