I'm finally retiring my old hip waders and am going to get some waist-high wading pants for the small streams in northern New Mexico and southern Colorado. I have narrowed it down to three - Simms G3 Guide Pants, Simms Freestone Pants, and Patagonia Gunnison Gorge Pants. Some of the questions I have are:

Are the G3's quite a bit heavier and, therefore, hotter (or warmer, which could be a good thing sometimes) or less comfortable than the other two?
A lot of wader comparison reviews say Patagonia's waders are the most comfortable on the market. Do you agree or not?
Which of the three has a belt system that is the most comfortable and functional?
Which, if any, of these three do you have and what do you think are their pros and cons?

Any advise and suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you for your help.

Joe
