waders?????????????????????? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

My zipper waders were nice and convenient too. But after a little over a year, the zipper came unhinged... And there is not way to re-hinge it without damaging the zipper track.

They have a 1 yr warranty with Bass Pro Shops, but Hodgemans has a 2 year warranty. (they overlap) I called Hodgemans 1-800

and they gave me a RMA#.... I sent them back, so they can inspect whether or not they fall under warranty. I sent them back a couple weeks ago.

I went back to my old pair, non-zipper cabelas brand ~$100, (which need some re-waterproofing) they also have a nice pocket pouch inside the waders. It isn't too much of a pain to do your do your business now that it is warm weather. However, in the winter it was nice to have that zipper, instead of having to take off your paddle jacket, and layers, etc.

Did I just type all this, I must need to go out and catch some fish!
