Hi,
I wanted to pick up a pair of chest waders, what should I be looking for?
I've seen different fabric choices, rubber, neoprene, or waterproof fabric, not sure which is best for me.
If you know of a previous article/post, please post the link, or if you have any first hand knowledge to share, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
John
Hi John.
Google: choosing waders
If you have specific questions after that, let me know.

Hi Joe,
I know how to use Google, thanks, I was looking for opinions from members.
If nobody is interested in offering their opinion, then I'll try the broader approach of google.
I wasn't trying to insult you. The first 3 google returns are excellent articles. You asked for links to articles.
Sorry Joe, I misunderstood.
Great links, they really helped. I think Im gonna go with Goretex with built in boots.
Thanks
John

That's what I went with in the end. Nylon doesn't breathe but cost less. It may not matter if you don't use it much.
Rubber is better for muddy waters and is a little more hardy and cleans easier. But it's hot and does not breathe.
Neoprene is for winter only.
I went with the SIMMS Gortex line in the end. And bought boots. All at SAIL.
The Adams wader at LeBaron is also good. But that store is always out of stock so I had to cough up the dough for the SIMMS line. I wasn't too happy about having to pay up for the SIMMS line, but apparently because of the quality it should last longer. I hope anyway.
And the service at SAIL Etobicoke was very good.
