Default New Waders?

HEY

So I got some money from christmas and I realize I need some new waders. I always got BARE but they keep failing me. So I'm wondering what other brands/models you guys really like. Something that is durable, comfy, and good quality. Any input is appreciated.

Redington Sonics are some of the best waders on the market.

Orvis Silver Sonics have great reviews, Dave jensen loves his.

Cant go wrong with simms stuff either. Their bottom of the line waders are pretty damn good. Freestone or the Headwaters.

Simms, American made, Montana actually. I bit the bullet and spent the money, never regretted it. They leaked, and when I phone they pretty much knew my kneeling habits and how many times I wore them just by my description of where they were leaking. Repairs would have been free but they have a really good tutorial on the web. I am well satisfied, but will say this whatever you buy stay off your knees.

Love my Simms waders. Wouldn't go with anything else, they have never ripped or leaked on me. Great name, great company.

Yeah Mid range Simms would be the best. I find the higher end ones have alot of features that i dont really care about.
