This waiter uses a four layer shell fabric where added breath ability where you need it most the asis comes with a. Weight belt for safety that is accompanied by three welded belt loops. Two on the side one in the rear so if. You unsnap your belt you won't lose it if we use only the top align waterproof. Zipper on the market which is riri so it allows you to unzip the waiter to. Be able to get in and out more easily the chest pockets on the asis utilize a. Water resistant zipper garage so if rain.

Hammer now to deal with our good friends at sims, and they are now a sponsor of the midwest fly-fishing schools and therefore I've been sporting these g3s. All season long and i tell you i told a. Rep tony the other day i said i never. Knew what waiters were and i know yeah. I'm a salesman but I'm not exaggerating i never knew what waiters were this is one of the finest pair waiters ever made. In the history of the sport, and they are sims number one selling pair of waders. So yeah they're pricey but let me tell. You they're worth it the g threes. They've really made some great updates. For 2018 and i think mostly the fit. These things just fit so well they come. In 25 different sizes so you're gonna. Find a to fit you but they're made a. Three-layer gore-tex pro shell material. On the upper and the chest and then four. Layer pro gore-tex pro shall in the legs. And the seat where it matters now they. Also feature a zippered chest pocket. That can zip in and out if you don't. Want it there you can also replace it with a waterproof version but this is a. Tippet tender type pocket it also has a docking station for a retractor or what. Have you this is usually where i will end up keeping my cell phone or cam what have you but then it has a zippered. Chest pocket here it has micro fleece. Line hand warmer pocket here and then. You have a little velcro fly patch you. Can use it as is or you can get one of. The sims little fly patches with velcro. On the back and stick it on there the. Low-profile belt loops which are really. Really nice and it comes with the 2-inch stretch waiting belt you have the. Patented front and back leg seams now. This is pretty smart it's instead of having the seams on the sides where they used to be like you have on a pair of pants that keeps where you get a lot of abrasion there it keeps. Then from wearing on the insides where. Your legs are rubbing together really smart design you have an adjustable one. And a half inch suspender system the. Suspenders are really great comfortable also with alternating buckles so you can. Roll it around your waist and then clip. The suspenders so you wind up with a waist high you do have a highly. Abrasion resistant gravel guards I've. Seen a lot of waders over the years when the gravel guards wear out and get torn up these are highly abrasion resistant they also have the hook to. Hook on to your wading shoes and then of. Course the articulated right and left. Foot neoprene stocking foot and these. Also have an antimicrobial treatment so to them, so they don't want wind up stinking on it i think those are the. Primary features that it's but i just. Can't say enough about the new for 2018.

Hey I'm corey from avid max right now. I'm going to talk to you about the Eddington felix river waders this is a three layer waiter from Eddington excellent value lots of features for the. Money so this waiter first of all we'll. Start at the top has nice comfortable shoulder straps to be worn as a chest. Waiter one of the cool things is that you can also wear this is a waist level. Waiter so the reason you can do that is. These straps are basically opposable so. They hook together so to turn it into a waist level waiter we'll just roll this. Down take those shoulder straps and it. Turns into a belt keeps that all in place like that so that's now a pant. Later so start so that's the shoulder straps. Converted it into a waist pant as well so another cool feature is we have some. Cinch straps right here at the top so you can cinch that down if it's really cold out you want to cinch that up keep. All the cold weather out or it's warm out you want a little extra airflow you can stretch that out or if you're wearing a coat or something heavy you might want to adjust that a little bit inside the waiter here is a flip-out. Pocket this pocket i like to keep like. My wallet or my phone or my car keys in here that way I'm not going to drop them in the water, and they're going to stay waterproof inside here so this different isn't waterproof but because they flip. Inside the waiter like that chances are it's not going to get wet on the outside we have a very water-resistant pocket so. That pocket you can keep some you know fly fishing gear fly box nippers. Clippers leaders tip at all that kind of stuff then we have a fleece-lined hand warmer. Pocket so this pocket goes all the way through fleece line nice and cozy if. You're out there on the water your hands get a little bit chilly you can warm them up warm them up right inside there next thing is we have a waiting belt the. Waiting belt is built-in that basically keeps that does two things for you one. That keeps the pants up, so they don't fall down keeps it nice and snug it has loops so that that belt stays in place but the other thing is for safety waiting belts basically keep it so that if you fall in the water your pant legs don't fill up with water. Right away if your waders completely fill up with water if you fall in the river it's going to be very hard to stand up and you're just going to shoot down the river so it's a safety feature you should always wear a wading belt these waders come with the wading belt. Next thing is they have to layer reinforced knee area so that. Reinforcement goes all the way down to the shin that way if you're kneeling down on the ground if you're landing a fish you kneel down close to the water or if you've got to take a break and kneel down you're not going to mess up the waders a little bit of extra protection there and then the last thing is we have a standard gravel guard that. Gravel guard designed to keep rocks and. Debris out of the your wading boots and then you have a hook that goes and clips on to the laces of the. Boots and then you have a very high. Density neoprene booties so that keeps your feet warm if you're in a cold river everything keeps everything dry at the same time so again this is the Eddington pale its river waiter check. Then out on at evan max calm you can also see more of our fly fishing and outdoor related videos on our abbot max youtube channel subscribe, and we'll see you out there.

the toughest highest-performing and most feature-rich waders we make and they've now been completely re-engineered from the booties up we build them from a

Item hardened from the venturing angler here i'm checking out the new patagonia. Rio gallegos waders same name as what. You're probably already familiar with but there's a lot of changes to the waders that i think a lot of people are gonna be really excited about first the. Fit these waders are a little tighter in. The chest they've cut two inches out that were generally regarded as unnecessary inches that gave kind of. Excess in the chest that's unnecessary. Next booties are a lot smaller i love. This i didn't realize how important this was until i started wearing the new pair i've got the old pair of rio gallegos waiters and the booties have a lot more. Material than anybody would need what. That sometimes in mounted two were clumps of material not a close. Comfortable fit in the boots i have to. Say now that i've i'm more familiar with how comfortable my boots are than ever before because with a nice snug fitting bootie the boots are more comfortable now than ever it's easier to jump around. On rocks and get around feel my way. Around rivers like i want to i don't know if this is proven but when i fished with these last they were on the freezing cold steelhead river in the northwest and i would say that my feet. Were warmer than they've ever been to so maybe that snug fit is helping keep heat. In i don't know if that's true but i i felt like it was they've also cut. Material in the waist and the hip i love. This i fish in the surf where you don't. Hook up on fish too often you don't want. To blow it when you do my cast with a. Switch rod and i seem to always be catching that excess material inside same with steelhead fishing 1,000 casts. You don't want to blow it by getting caught with a double handed rod on some material and so i feel like getting rid. Of that unnecessary excess makes fishing better what this amounts to overall is a. Comfortable fit i've never been so comfortable in waders and i'd have to say i've never been this enthusiastic about a pair of waders are worn either they've got the cool patagonia fitzroy logo on them overall in general -. They've got four layers of durable. Breathable material especially in the knees is gonna make it so they last. Longer that you're able to get through thick tough conditions that you're able. To squat down putting me down tie flies. Or tie on a fly etc they've redesigned. The gravel guards - to drain water more easily and then if you're able to get. The zip fronts i love these you might wonder about. Water leakage or anything like that this is an outstanding zipper durable. It's got a nice grip to make it easy to. Pull up and down especially when it's cold but the zipper doesn't it doesn't. Leak any water and it makes it easy to get in and out of especially if you're taking a bathroom break these are just. Hitting the streets in 2016. Say that they're highly recommended extremely comfortable warm durable. Breathable everything you want for our waiter.

Hi I'm dave allen and the fly-fishing. Sales rep for patagonia, and we're first gonna talk a little bit about the updates to the entire patagonia wader line which launched in the spring 2016. New fly fishing line so the most important update we made that the entire wader lineup was really the sizing in the men's waiter we're running a little large in previous generation, so we ultimately took two inches out of the chest two inches out of the waist and two inches out of the hip so it fits much truer to size which means it's gonna last much longer — it's gonna be much more durable gonna be less folding of fabric and now we're going to talk about both the rio gallegos zip front and non zippered version of the rio gallegos so this is the apec style of our line from a fabric. Standpoint it's our burliest for layer nine point one ounce fabric for both the non zip and the zippered later some of the features that carry in. From the current generation from the. Previous generation is the convertible suspension system so both on the zip and non zippered version when you integrate. With the rear suspender can be cinched down and worn as pants which makes it a very versatile piece we also updated the. Pocket treatments on this waiter as well. You still get the micro fleece line hand warming pocket as well as the two waterproof zipper pockets you can see on the rio gallegos zip front comes with a. Nice clean storm flap on the front and then our tees that zipper on the. Zippered portion of it there feature update to the rio gallegos or these stash drop-in pockets on the inside of. The waiter and get one on each side which is great for stashing a beanie or. Gloves it also happens to hold two beers. Perfectly on each side another update we. See across the entire waiter line we. Updated the pleat pattern in the knees which allows for a lot more range of motion than the previous generation this. Is the quarter inch foam removable knee pad on the inside of the knee which is a really nice feature for just taking a. Breather on the side of the river waiting for the hatch to come off. Kneeling down to land of fish it's a. Feature that you that i initially thought was very gimmicky until i honestly ate it for the first time in the river and you really notice a cushion it's safe to my knees a number of times one of the updates to this. Waiter though in the previous generation we went with a mono lined bootie we. Updated the liner from merino to a new polygraph lightly warmer than the merino. It dries a little bit more quickly and which moistur a little bit better the new poly grid lined bootie so you still. Get a three and a half millimeter neoprene booty and then addition to this. Is poly grid liner which allows for extra insulation for your colder fishing. Days fishing in tail waters but because. It's a grid fabrication it still wicks and breeds moisture really well and you're not shouldn't be too concerned about overheating during the warmer months of the year and another neat feature that you'll see across the entire line is what we call flat cuff. Construction so we still run an elastic band around the outside of the ankle and on the inside of the cuff we can go with a flat cuff construction which accomplishes two things one thing one is the moment you step out of the river all that extra water that's being held in the gravel guard will pour right out and second you'll minimize the abrasion that occurs from walking in your waders of a. Price standpoint price stayed the same the rio guy who goes zip front stays at $5.99 compared to say like a sims g4z at. $7.99 and then when you look at the non. Zippered version of this at $4.99 which. Would compare to say like a sims g3 some. The rio gallegos waiter is a much more. Feature-rich waiter those are the updates to the rio guy goes.

Hi I'm bart burn em here at the somerset fishing show here to talk about the. Zip-front ryoga goes waiter this is our. High-end waiter features our heaviest. Fabric which is an eight point eight ounces four layer waterproof breathable all of our waiters feature a single seam. Up the back of the leg so we remove the. Seam from the interior of the leg which is the highest wear zone this features. Upper hand warming pockets too. Convenient stash pockets all of our. Waiters also feature a drop down system. In the so you can where the product is a pant it's really nice for. Temperature regulation on a hot day the. Other thing that features is that a fully submersible front zipper. There's a waterproof pouch for your cellphone and then there's two large drop-in pockets one on this side and one on this. Side which is really nice for an additional fly box your lunch camera. Cold beer whatever you need to store. And then lastly we use a four mil high. Density neoprene in the booties that will keep the keep them from compressing which is most booties fail and in. Addition we line the booties with a 100% polyester grid which is going to add warmth here in the colder months.

Hey this is doug scott with patagonia fly fishing in the flat fishers fly shop this is the patagonia rio gallegos. Waiter it is a our proven 4 layer h2o. Fabric package with single seam construction this is our most durable waiter starting at the booty neoprene. Booties we have a left and right ergonomic bootie that is fleece lined.

Your laces move it on up you have a. Built in and removable neoprene knee pad. A little bit more supple fabric through. The body of the waiter a marsupial hand. Warmer fleece lined pocket water. Resistant front drop-in pocket and. Waterproof zip pocket on the inside. Great feature of these waders is with. The quick lock convertible straps you. Can slide them down to waist high waders at a hot day really easily and still. Have the straps around your shoulders with your forceps or your nippers. Attached to the gear attachment points.

Hey guys mic for sportsmen compass here. And today me taking a look at the new 2016 patagonia rio gallegos wait so over. The past few years patagonia has been putting in a lot of effort to beef up their way there's make them more durable make them more user-friendly or find the. Fit and for 2016 they have a revamped. Edition that are really awesome so let me show you a few new features so. The front pocket pretty big dumb pocket. It's waterproof it's got no organism organizational. Pockets in it just straight up dump then you have the hand warmer pocket it's a. Fleece lined on the inside the. Waders you have a flip-out fully. Waterproof ziplock pocket this does not. Detach from the waders though it is attached unlike some other brands on the. Market that have that two velcros off they have two small wells pretty big. Pockets on either side you could easily fit a fly box in each or a beer maybe they have little loops on either side. Too if you need to attach forceps nippers whatever you want yeah they. Have the waiting belt loops just. One in the back and then one of the. The Nicest features that's becoming popular and a lot of waders is the suspenders that fold down so if you're staying. Hydrated on the river you don't have to. You know take everything off to get your waders down you just slide them down do. Your business and slide them back up so. As you can see they're a little loose fitting on me I'm. A small guy so for most people this probably isn't a problem they'd probably enjoy it's not annoying it's just. Maybe a little looser than i need but you know that's probably a personal problem the gravel guards are pretty. Pretty thick they do not fly up on me. Like some neoprene ones do these stay down all day this seems is another thing on these waders the seams are all in really awesome places you don't really feel them they don't seem like they're in major wear area so these will probably stay it's a pretty waterproof. For a long time so you know these seams won't get torn from sitting down or I've had these for about three months. Now no problems obviously you've been. Fishing throughout the winter so you know the loose fit is pretty nice to put jackets and stuff on there these are medium by the way so yeah great waders. Definitely give them a look if you're in the market for new waders these might. Really impress you if you want to read more about these waders click the link in the description they'll take you to our blog where i have a full write-up on them give some more opinions more thoughts yep thanks for watching.

Hey I'm jeff from avid max here to tell. You about the Eddington ska git river waiting booth it's a great waiting booth from Eddington one of their top-of-the-line booths starting at the top here it's got a great padded ankle. Collar the top of it is really stiff great support it's got a back on it here. That feels really solid i think it's one. Of the things i really like about the boot for putting pins on if I'm going to. Be jumping in and a belly boat that you're not going to have the back of the fins that are digging into your heel to. Your ankle anything like that it also has the deep draw lacing system. Which means when you're when you're out there you can pull them tight once and from bottom to top it's its going to. Fit really well just felt like a glove the metal pieces here are all corrosion resistant so it's really. Durable going to last for a long time you don't have to worry about those falling apart on you at all the one of. The nice features of this boot is these mesh panels right here so these are actually the drainage system on this boot so as you're stepping out of the river you're going to have water. Just coming out of kind of everywhere on the boot so it's going to empty the boots out real quick for you're not going to be wandering around with a boot full of water for quite a while it as well. Has all around the bottom is this rubber toe cap and it's extra thick right here in the front for as you're bouncing. Around in rivers and kickin rocks it has. Two different versions of the boot so the first one is just kind of the standard felt sole on it here which is. It's pretty much all around the best for jumpin and rivers and is going to give you a lot of traction on wet slippery rocks but if you can't use that one it's also got a version that comes with the. Sticky rubber sole on it so both of these souls are going to be stud compatible which is a great thing that. You can just be able to screw them into to the felt that's what i use most the. Time is a felt with studs on the bottom and provides great traction no matter. What rocks you're you're jumping on. You. So perform fly fishing and outdoor.

Also dry quick and have minimal water uptake and perforated drain holes on. Both sides of the boot help clear water quickly the lacing system uses non. Corrosive hardware throughout there're traditional eyelets over the instep and speed lacing at the top of the boot that. Allows you to quickly adjust it for a secure fit a tough heel counter and toe. Box provide additional support and protection the upper is stitched down to. A dual density mid sole it uses a stiffer. Material for stability and a softer. Material for cushioning the foot tractor. Is available in three different outsoles this is our aluminum bar model it uses. Our patented aluminum bar technology paired with a vibram hydro grip rubber. Outsold aluminum bars provide. Exceptional traction in the snot iasts waiting conditions here's the foot. Tractor sticky model it uses vibrams id. Rebirth rubber which is their stickiest water specific compound the sticky rubber outsole also has reinforced stud. Attachment points should you want to install studs for additional traction we. Also make the foot tractor with a traditional felt outsole it's been both glued and stitch to the mid sole all. Wading boots require proper cleaning to avoid transporting invasive species with. Belts old boots be sure to check the. Watershed regulations where you're planning on fishing to make sure that the boots are allowed with heavy-duty. Support quick drying materials outstanding traction and the ability to. Resole we think patagonia's foot tractor is the last wading boot you'll ever need to buy.

Hi my name is steve light I'm a trout and steel head guide for Descartes angler fly shop and maupin Oregon today's video segment is going to feature the patagonia foot tractor waiting bootie the patagonia foot tractor is the ideal. Big river weighting machine where stability is a concern a unique feature. Of this boot with the aluminum bars on the bottom allow for excellent traction. On slick hard surfaces the bars are embedded within a rubber bottom with the. Knobs so it allows good traction outside of the river replaceable bars also add. Extended life to the boot and the bomber upper with the high r and allows for. Durability and protection against. Cutting the fit of the boot is very. Generous with ample room in the toe box to accommodate for heavier winter socks. Also an orthotic the large opening. Allows for ease of entry and exit into.

Hi i'm barb podium here at the somerset fly-fishing show here to talk about our foot tractor wading boot this award-winning boot is award-winning for one very good reason it's the only boot. In the industry that features aluminum traction and for those of you that are not familiar with it we use the softest aluminum alloy way available and unlike felt which grips by surface area this. Actually deforms to the rock so you literally stick to the rock you actually. Have to adjust the way you wade rather than slipping into a spot we used to feel safe this literally sticks to the. To the to the rock because it deforms to the rock it features sticky rubber sole. With lugs all of the aluminum bars are. Replaceable you'll notice that this was our aluminum bar replacement kit with. The wrench that's included in the kit once these wear out which depending on. Weight the type of terrain you wear it. Should last at least a hundred days but. When it comes time to replace them you simply order a replacement kit because you can replace these at home in. Addition we have monofilament mesh drainage a big aggressive rubber ran to protect this foot there's a reinforced. Toe box and heel cup and for anybody. That's actually worn these this is a complete gamechanger they're two hundred and seventy nine dollars without question the world's. Best traction the only word of caution i. Would say is that the rock has to have some type of texture in order to be. Effective so the only two places they do not excel is i you have to be very. Careful on ice because obviously if this. Is designed to deform to rock if there's. Nothing to deform to it doesn't work so i you have to be very careful and really. Slick rock like bedrock or granite which is really isolated to certain areas of. The midwest and pretty unusual outside. Of that these are literally game changers you do not have to worry about wearing these in somebody's boat because these actually wear down to let be like. A hundred hundred grand 100 grit sandpaper so you can wear them in and out of a drift boat feel comfortable hiking in them and just overall just a. Great great boot in the world's best traction they're available at phish usa.

Hey I'm jeff from avid max here to talk. To you today about the patagonia foot. Tractor wading boots they're a really cool waiting boot from patagonia one of. Their top-of-the-line boots and have a lot of awesome features that i wanted to. Show you today first thing you're going to notice when you pick these boots up is this synthetic leather upper it's a. Really cool kind of upper part to the boot here and it really does kind of fit the bill real nice between not being too stiff of a top to the boot. That it digs in your heel but still giving you enough support that you'll be able to wander around in it all day it feels real comfortable and the other nice thing about it being a synthetic leather upper is even after you're jumping in and out of rivers all day and getting this wet and let me dry out so many times it's a really durable material and you're not going to have to worry about the top of it falling apart rotting out anything like that and it's. Just a really great addition to these boots as you move down the side here you. See these little panels and these are actually made of mono filament mesh. Screen that is really nice for a couple. Of reasons first it's a very lightweight material and it helps keep the overall weight of the boot down a little bit but the other nice thing about the mesh screen is well it's going to allow all the water to drain out on you pretty quick it also keeps the sand and things. Like that while you're in the river from getting into boots so hopefully you won't have too many of those sorts of things that are in your boot and kind of govern on the bottom of your leaders at all it's just here on the front of the boot it's got a real nice set of laces with non-corrosive metal hardware as well as an additional tab. Here in the middle of the time that you can clip your way to rock guards onto. There and you don't have to worry about them kind of pulling your laces up a little strange like they do on some of the boots one of the other nice things about this boot that you just kind of notice as soon as you pick it up is really how sturdy and well-built this thing is and one of the things that really gives that impression is this rubber band that comes halfway up the boot here and what this is just an. Abrasion resistant part that's on the side of the boot so as you're in the rivers kicking up against rocks this. Part isn't going to wear out at all it's its really sturdy and what they've done by bringing this a little higher up is you actually get the seams that hold this rubber and adhere you get them a little bit higher and out of the way so as this side of the boot drags across some rocks it's not going to catch on the seams at all you're not going to have to worry about pulling those out at all in addition to the side.
