“Quality all the way....”

“I am new to fly fishing - my fly fishing instructor recommended Simms as the best you can buy and I was thrilled to come home from class and see top of the line Simms womens' waders for sale on STP. I have never used waders before this; these feel big but I have no experence with other waders to compare against. I bought the smallest size that STP had available - an XL, which, according to the Simms website size chart, was the correct choice for me and when i compare the actual measurements of the waders to my measurements, there is an allowance of about 3". The legs are baggy, but I have a 32" inseam and I've read that waders should be at least 5" longer than your inseam; these are 38" so again I assume the bagginess is to be expected due to that length allowance. I realize that the waders also need to allow for movement and for extra clothes underneath. Based on these observations, even though I said they feel large I'm not really sure they would be considered so. I wear a size 7.5-8.5 shoe (depending on the brand); the neoprene booties felt long until I put on some heavy cushy socks and stuffed everything into the wading boots - at that point, they didn't feel as long anymore :-), just comfortable. For the price I paid for them, they are an incredible deal. Suffice to say they are easy to get into and comfortable to wear; the incorporated side waist belts are great, very easy to use, and they have the roomy 2 zip front inside pouch for keys, license, money, etc. These are very well constructed and great looking waders with the built in heavy duty gravel guards on the fronts of the legs. Overall, a great product that I expect to get a lot of use from. They also come with a repair kit and patches. What more could you want? (I bought a pair of Korkers wading boots from STP at the same time)”
