Tried them the first time today, and Im really happy. Quality with seams, stitching, zippers, buckles, all look and work great. For the record, Im 59 30in inseam, 180, fit build and choose med. The size is almost perfect. I say almost as I used them in a peddle drive kayak and could use a tad more inseam room for peddling, but not bad at all. Walking, bending over, setting up the gear in the kayak and no tightness. My shoe size is about 8-8.5 so youll need to go up a couple sizes for footwear. I wore dollar store fake crocks.
Kept me warm with a thermal layer underneath, water and fish slime, run right off. I also went up waist height in water and fished a little, again they felt great. Obviously no leaks.
Should get good use of these over the coming months to see how the quality holds up.
One thing.. I didnt get a patch kit in my order. Hope I dont need it, but because Im landing fish around my legs, a hook puncture may happen. So for the seller if youre reading this, Id appreciate the patch kit.
Also for the seller. Should I be doing anything to help the longevity of them such as seam sealing or other type water proof maintenance?
Update after dozens of uses. Holding up great. And many days walking along bogs and in weeds along shorelines. These things are fantastic. I have their boots too.
Great initial quality, fit, and performance.
