Got an email showing their waders with a front zip coming soon. Guess they learned their lesson to not release new waders without a front zip. Guessing sales were not great on the no zip ones.
For my next pair of waders I think I’m rolling with the Simms Freestone Z Bootfoot waders. Other than some camo and maybe a feature or two, both pairs of waders appear to feature the same boots and same 4 layer Toray fabrics. For the cost difference between the two, the Simms seem like the way to go.
I have a pair of Simms G3 stocking foot waders that have been very durable (I’ve only been looking to add because my feet get too cold in the stockingfoots when the temps drop) . I’ll have a hard time not sticking with a Simms produced product moving forward.
Simms' M's Freestone Z Bootfoot Waders for men with rubber soles feature a waterproof front zipper for convenience. Unbeatable guarantee + Free shipping.
