I had to drain a small swamp for work. Originally a stormwater run/off pond, it hadnt drained properly in years. Over 3 days, I spent a lot of time in there, up to my diaphragm in water and my thighs in mud at some points. This kept that awful, foul muck from ever touching me, and protected me from the leeches I discovered on the final day. Sizing is a bit wonky. I got the ones with size 11 boots, and it was built for Slenderman, extra tall with skinny legs. I have thick, muscular calves because I spend a lot of time going up and down ladders and slopes. I had to take my pants off to wear these, or theyd roll and bunch up at my knees. Also, they have zero insulation value. You can feel the water through them, like getting your hands wet with tight latex gloves on. Other than that, they were great.
Did the job
