[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 231893, member: 6150"] Simms are obviously great but well out of my price range. I can't speak to the quality of Sitka waders because everything with that logo on it is also well out of my price range. I purchased a pair of Redington Sonic Pro waders from sierra trading post 3 seasons ago. Its safe to say I have well over 200 days in them from fishing to float hunting. That includes about half of them days getting in and out of a raft. I have had no problems. The fit is great as well as the storage. If you can get $1 per wear out of your waders, I think you got your money worth (a $200 set of waders should make it 200 days). So if these things shred tomorrow, I would go back and buy another pair with a smile on my face. Again, no argument that Simms are the best out there if you can afford them. But most can't justify it. If that's the case, I would suggest taking a look at the Redington Sonic Pro for 1/3 the price. If 2% for conservation is you big hold out; I recommend saving yourself $400 and you can afford to donate 10% of your savings to conservation program of your choice and now everyone is a winner.....
