Well, I finally broke down and bought my new breathable waders. I couldn't help it. It happened during a trip to Cabela's at Hamburg, Pa. Cabela's Dry-Plus breathable GII boot foot with felt soles. I am a stout fellow and was surprised at how much room their regular size waders have in them. Got the little woman a great deal on a pair of Reebok walkers too along with a shirt she really wanted.

I have neoprene chest and hip waders too. Now I can use the neoprene chest waders in the winter only and the hip boots for canoe launching duties in cool weather.
