Quick question from a newbie. Isn't wearing waders while kayaking dangerous? Wouldn't the waders quickly fill up with water if you tip over into the water? Just asking.....

most waders have a belt integrated, and you want to wear it tight enough to not let water past the waistline.

Luckily I just drive to Baja, it's always warmer there.

I do wear my long sleeve sun shirt, over which I wear a light polartec top, and over that for paddling out and back through the surf zone a waterproof paddling jacket. I'll remove and add layers as the weather dictates, but most of the time I'm down to the sun shirt from mid morning to sunset.

For bottom wear a pair of trekking pants over which I'll wear a pair of Kokatat dry pants. If it gets warm, which it usually does in the afternoon the dry pants come off.

Luckily I drive a PA to support all this changing activity...

wader sizing

Can anybody give some input regarding Breathable stockingfoot wader's Sizing? I've seen sites recommending adding 3+ inches to inseam to allow for good bending of the knee. Also, how much do you guys allow for the clothing worn under the waders?
