First Lite Waders - duck hunting

[Novemberfest]

Does anyone have any inside scoop when First Lite is going to release their waders? I need a new pair for this upcoming season and I'm trying to hold off until I see what they have to offer.

Thanks.

Pretty sure they announced that they aren’t coming out this year.

I haven't seen anything official from first lite about that. Just their announcement from last fall.

Think it was on one of the podcasts recently. I’ll see if I can find it.

Only heard them bragging on them last fall, no details yet but glad to see another option!

They posted on their social media avenue's that the release has been pushed out to next year. They found some things they want to tweak to make them "perfect" in their mind. So they will be a 2024 release.

Sounds good thank you.

Make them perfect - like not going with an integrated boot? It’s asinine that hunting companies aren’t going to a stockingfoot option in the uninsulated waders game. Unless you’re consistently hunting in (significantly) sub freezing temps, a goretex wader with a quality pair of wading boots are game changing.

^ Agreed. I don’t understand.

Kuiu is supposed to be in the waders game this year too, be interesting to see what they are going to offer.

Considering FL has a partnership with LaCrosse, I would assume it will be integrated boot wader?

If only the Simms G3s came in camo.

I literately just saw that. They’re on sale for $599 on the Simms website too!

Rogers waders are hard to beat when they are on sale

I bit the bullet and got a pair of Patagonia Swiftcurrents last year. They’re light years ahead of anything else I’ve ever worn. The dark gray doesn’t bother me in the duck blind at all
