Sale!
I believe Orvis' website still has the discontinued Pro Guide2 waders - were $289, now $179. I have had a pair since Spring and ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM. They have actual belt loops, so ypu can fold them down and make hip waders. Very comfortable (a little stiffer than other waders) and they seem to be well-made and tough. I have had other Orvis waders and their service has been great! The Silver label2's are also on sale - from $189 to $149. If possible, go with the Pro Guides.
I have the older style of Korkers and they work great. Google Korkers Wetlands Wading Boots and you can find them - in the $0-50 range.
