my first pair of waders was from Academy and they lasted about 4 years before it started leaking. The last two seasons, I've gone through 3 sets of TideWe waders. Just bought the Sikta waders so hopefully, I no longer have to deal with leaks. It's a pain when you are out in the field and freezing water starts to leak in. Thanks for the thorough review!

I have a pair of the Sitka waders with out the zipper, last season I stepped out of boat right on a willow stick that had been chewed off at water level by beaver, it went right through the neoprene about the boot. I was able to patch it with neoprene patch and hunted the rest of the season with no issues. I called and talked to Sitka customer service and told them what happen and did not mind paying to get them repaired, they told me to send them in and they would email me what cost to repair. I got waders back 20 days from the day I mailed them they replaced the boot on that leg and didn’t charge me anything for repair also sent a free hat back in the box. The customer service at Sitka was top notch.

Great Review. I have these waders. Zipper and boots are game changer. 4 years ago I spent $250 on Columbia waders because of holes and general wear and tear plus who likes neoprene... 2 years ago I spent $300 on drake breathable waders. Lasted a season and a half started leaking. So I’d have to drop another $300...That’s $900 ish in 4 years. It will just keep going on and on every year. Yes Price is steep but they are WORTH every penny. They aren’t bulletproof but they can be fixed. One season down and I can’t wait to keep testing them season after season. Sitka has revolutionized waterfowl gear. No other company does what they do

I didnt see a barb wire stran and heard it hit the waders and about shit myself looked at the waders and nothing at all i was relieved anyother waders would have been a massive gash. Living in Montana i gotta rep sitka plus the layering in later season is amazing with these waders unlike most waders.

Great review, Titus. Waders! Sheesh! Struggled for 4 decades with em!

It’s the old cliche...you get what you pay for. I’m currently in Frogg Toggs Grand Refuge Migration Series breathables.

I think I’m going to invest in these the next waders I buy. My first pair of waders I got as a hand-me-down when I was 15 and I wore them until they leaked when I was 25. I now gotta get new waders probably every other season. My issue with the sizing is I’m only five foot 3, and they don’t make a short and squat size, my shoe size and height I almost need to be at wrestling weight to fit in. I’m interested in seeing when you do have an issue if they are going to honor the last pair you’ll ever buy warranty.

Mid Valley Mercenaries - regular shoes 81/2 -9. Most waders are in full size so I always get an 8 so that they fit tight. Can feel a little crampy, but it’s worth it when your in sticky mud so that your foot doesn’t pull out of the boot. I’ve been fortunate that the neoprene part of the waders have always lasted. It’s the boot itself that always compromised for me.

I'm 5 10 and about 230 (my biggest). I just sent back my XL-10s and purchased XLS-10s to tryout. Like you, I wear 10s but could use a 9.5 (I guess 9s). I've tried my buddie's L and it fit with a hoodie and 2 thin cold gear layers underneath but I was a bit snug especially when sitting. I'm currently losing weight although, most of us understand how that goes (ups & downs). Should I have just gone to the L-9? Also, in their sizing chart it says the L is the same inseam as the XL, which contradicts what you said as far as it going down with the L size. If I went L and it's truly the same, my thoughts would have been to go with the LS-9. As far as my inseam background, my jeans are 32 inseam but I tried the XL (32-33) today when they came in and the legs seemed a bit long. I am worried about the crotch being too snug with the XLS but need to take some length off the legs. I know this is an older video, but I'd appreciate your thoughts on all points I touched on due to there not being alot of sources on this out there than I'd like, and we seem to have similar builds. Hopefully this will help similar built guys dealing with our "first-world problem" too. Thanks! @MidValleyMercenaries

Luxury is a refinement of living rather than a necessity. (Webster’s dictionary- I’m not that smart) So we could say ya you don’t need a $1,000 pair of waders but than you buy a $200 pair, but the guy that’s more broke than you says you are luxurious because he can do the same thing with a $100 pair of waders. It’s definitely not luxury it’s better quality. 1 guy buys a new pair every 1-2 years for $200 and spends $1,000 in 5-7 years. Another guy saves for a couple years and buys a $1,000 pair that lasts let’s just say to be conservative for 7 years. What’s the difference? There isn’t any difference. You and I work hard for our money. I spend it on things you wouldn’t and vice versa. Sitka waders are not equal to a shotgun but what I’m saying is I can have the best shotgun in the world but if I don’t have waders where I hunt it’s pointless, I will not be able to hunt.

Cookie Luv finishing up my 6th season on my current pair of cabelas waders.. paid $150 for them, still running strong. Next pair probably won’t be cabelas with the warranty gone and it seems that their quality has gone down recently too

The only reason I want a pair is because of the optifade timber pattern.

Waders pretty much became disposable to me, even the better ones (banded, drake, etc.) and they all failed. So far I have been extremely impressed with the Sitka waders, this was their first season but I love them so far. Plus you can’t beat the Optifade! You should do a video explaining how to hunt California for out of staters, I’m from western Nevada and I’ve been thinking of making my way Into Cali for a hunt or two next season. Great channel!

Waders are important no doubt! But the reason they rather hear about the franchi even though it’s more expletive is because the gun is a investment. Those waders are worth shit after you buy them. I wouldn’t pay 200 bucks for a used pair of Sitka waders. But I’d pay good money for a used shotgun. The warrant my on the waders is horseshit, 1. All they do is patch it. ( I can do that with any pair of meanders myself) 2. You have to send them back to them for repair. ( what happens if the hole occurs during middle of season)? Bottom line is, it’s not a good purchase.
