By Freshtracks from Bozeman, MT on 09/30/2008 Pros: Breathable, Foldable uppers, Good Footing, Perfect cut, Tough Material, Very Light Best Uses: Fly Fishing, Freshwater Fishing Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These waders have a great fit and are unbelievably breathable. I do a lot of backcountry fishing, and they are perfect for it. You can hike upriver all day and not get too sweaty - and I sweat a lot! Fabric seems lighter than other waders, but so far it has held up admirably. They are also compact and light for backpacking purposes and they have a great fit. My favorite feature is the upper portion - from the waist up is a lightweight Gore-tex fabric similar to that of a ski jacket. It cuts a lot of unnecessary weight - how often are you really immersed in water up to your chest for any amount of time? It keeps you dry up top without the weight of a 5-ply fabric. And you can easily fold it down and tuck it in for shallower waters and on hot days. Also, nice Scholler gravel guards and warm booties. Perfect for the adventure fisherman who covers a lot of ground in a day.
