Foxelli Chest Waders – Waterproof 2-ply Nylon/PVC Camo Hunting Fishing Waders for Men and Women with Boots

There are ONLY two kinds of waders in this world#1 those that leak#2 Those that are going to leak.I have been through absolutely all of it buying fishing and hunting waders. Bought waders that cost $60-$290 bought Gore-Tex waders bought nylon waders bought neoprene waders.Only had ONE pair of waders last me more than three seasons without leaking. A pair of Red Ball waders made from 1000d cordura and extra ultra heavy duty PVC under the 1000D cordura bonded to the 1000D cordura like it was welded steel. Lasted 10 YEARS before they leaked at all. Then like an idiot tried to cross over a barbed wire fence with them on and that was the end of them.I duck hunt but fish A LOT more with waders talking using my waders for fishing 9-10 months out of the year so I have A LOT of experience with waders.Heck 9/10 nylon non neoprene waders even ones costing $150 to $300 at best were getting no better reviews than these <$60 waders.I am DONE buying waders over $100 because the all of the over $100 dollar waders I bought including ones I paid with tax almost $300 for that were advertised as "tough as nails" waders leaked after 3.5 seasons of careful as possible use. And I take excellent care of my waders.Now my wader purchasing philosophy is odds are overwhelming four pair of $60 waders costing $240 will last me twice as long as one pair of $280 waders. So far my filosophy has proven correct.I just bought these waders for actually my son to use not me, for fishing local lakes in spring till fall. I gave them a shake down use yesterday for 6 straight hours of fishing, and was very happy with them.Again bare in mind these waders with the 15% off coupon cosy under $60 TMD.Now for my review of them.First I would rate these as strictly warmer water water waders as they are of thin material and not insulated so they are excellent for warmer weather fishing as I was last night.AS they are made of thin material I would at ALL COSTS avoid coming into contact with ANYTHING with a sharp point like thorn bushes. Last night all I encountered was soft green weeds and cattails and the waders held up great.Overall I would rate the quality of manufacture very good for waders costing under $60. Their quality of manufacture is on par with waders I have costing $80 but not as well made with thicker materials as waders I own costing $100-$135 I own.waterproof sealed seams and stitched seams were very well done and well sealed especially the seams where the fabric meets the PVC boots. Fit was very good material moves with you and overall save for the boots waders are very comfortable.Shoulder straps are well made and work and adjust well, same for waist belt. Pouches are absolutely minimal but adequate and function well.While waders themselves run accurate for size I bought a XXL-14 because these would be strictly warm weather warm water waders I nore my sons have no plans on wearing anything more than jeans and a short sleeved t-shirt and then a long sleeved sun shirt over that, they fit me very well. If I could order them again I would get the XXXL but boot size 13 VS boot size 14 so I could wear a sweater or lite jacket if need be even a sweater would likely makes these waders feel a bit tight on me, but I am about 50lbs OW.It was 82* yesterday and I didn't overheat or get hot in these waders so they do not make you overly hot or sweat. I normally take a 14 XW boot nand these size 14 boots were mildly to big on me not so large to be a problem or require I return them but size 13 would have been a better fitting choice. So keep that in mind when ordering them. Of all the boots bI have EVER bought on line NEVER once did I have to return a size 14XW shoe or boot because it was to large.Only one use for six continues hours, but they kept me 100% dry as in ZERO moisture or wetness occured.Now for the only negatives and why I gave these waders 4 stars for comfort and not five.The boots are both to big and the PVC to flexible and I wouldn't want to walk a great distance in these and did pack a pair of gym shoes in my fishing tackle backpack so I only wore the waders while fishing which will be SOP as most of the fishing spots my sons and I go to are far far walks.The PVC boots flex so much the water will compress them on your feet, but on your toes is where the problem is. There will be enough force on your toes after about five continuous hours submerged in waist deep water to become notably uncomfortable. No it's not severe or unbearable but definitely noticeable. and becomes somewhat annoying. THis issue is not a dealbreaker for me and I would order another pair of these waders, just one size smaller.But other than the boots running about a size to large and will compress on your toes as I described, I can find no real fault with these <$60 waders and can recommend them to those looking for a pair of <$75 waders for warmer water fishing from spring till fall.Now lets see how many outings my son gest before we break out the patching kit.If you need a pair of warmer weather and water waders and you won't encounter nasty thorny things and your budget is under $70 I strongly recommend you consider these waders.

I'm 5'9" 165 LBS, and ordered the size 9. I mud race 4 wheeler, and SxS so I need something that's not to big in the boot to still be able to feel the pedals. The boot fits great, just wish there was a little more room in the crotch area, so when I sit on the seat it doesn't ride up. Used 2 times and so far so good

Cheap, but well, definitely a solid beginner set taken them out 4 times in 3 weeks.Feels good.

Item exactly as described. Arrived when it was supposed to. The only issue, I must have missed reading about country of manufacture…CHINA. Got me this time.

Excellent waders for the price. Came with a patch, phone protector, hanger for hanging them upside down and it has a front exterior pocket and front interior pocket

This wader is awesome

I am writing this reviews hoping that foxelli customer service will stop ignoring my emails and my calls and contact me. After purchasing several pair of waiters that worked great, I purchased this that last fall and within a month it started coming apart at the seams. I emailed customer service and no response. I called them and there was nowhere to leave a voicemail. So for that reason, you're getting a one-star rating. Seems like you've decided to abandon your customers. Hopefully you will contact me to resurrect this problem and show that you care about your customers.

I’m small in stature. 5/6 140 lbs. I wear size 11 shoes. I ordered size 10 shoe size and the waders fit me like a circus tent. Which I’m not that concerned about. The problem is. The places I fish in Jersey require a lot of walking to get to the water. About a mile to get to the shore line. And that’s walking in loose sand. Not so easy when you’re carrying a rod and reel. And a bag full of lures, leaders, , sand spike ectera I haven’t even been to the beach yet and I’m not loving the waders. I’ll give them a shot. Hopefully they don’t leak (which almost of the do including the 5-9 hundred dollar ones). If they leak back they go
