Re: [VFB] Wader Question

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Bruce, I have a pair of Hodgeman Wadelites, that I've worn for the last 5 years.  They are great!  No leaks, easy on / off.  Breathable and don't make me sweat up a storm.  I even use mine in cold weather, with a pair of fleece longjohns.  Good storage pocket in upper vest.  I like the belt and the easy snap shoulder straps. I paid $120.00 for mine at G.I. Joes in Eugene, OR.

Hey all,

My family is planning a vacation to Yellowstone in late summer (finally a vacation!) and I am looking for some fairly inexpensive (<$150) breathable chest waders.  The Hodgman Wadelite waders fit the bill.  I was wondering if anyone has any positive or negative comments about them on or off list or has any other suggestions.  I am getting so excited I can hardly stand to be around myself!

 

Thanks in advance,

Bruce Whittle
