Waterfowl Wading Systems Max-5 Neoprene Stockingfoot Wader

I can't give them a 5 star review because I have nothing to compare them to. But, I've worn them 4-5 times in the lake over the last two weeks in 30 degree weather and they've kept me warm and dry and I was in water up past my waist. My only complaint is that there are these little slip over pieces that come down over your boot and are supposed to clip to your boot laces. The clip likes to come unhinged and then get caught on twigs and branches which could potentially be a real problem if you were wading and got hooked to a twig on a heavy branch down below. It could trip you up into the water and fill up those waders fast. I went ahead bent them shut so that it won't be a problem.

After owning many 3-3.5mm neoprene waders I know what to look for and can tell you what works and what doesn't. First, there has been a lack of choices when it comes to camo 3mm neoprene for hunting. These waders are some of the few remaining. The good, nice camo pattern and clean stitching. Not so good, the straps are minimal width look for them the separate from the neoprene. The seams are not seal taped and the crotch and boots will leak if used a couple times a week for our 3 month season. I spray mine with flex seal while new. There is no pocket just a simple unlined hand warmer, got to have a pocket. No shell loops. I don't know why they don't come on all hunting waders. Finally, for the price these will do. With the lack of options they will have to. Look for them to last 1 season 2 maybe. Amazon shipping is awesome, how do they do it?

I don't know if I'm shaped funny or if its just how the waders are made, but I bought the XXL size and they are a little too long and a little too tight in the waste/chest area. I don't like the stocking feet they make my boots extremely tight, so I wore them without the boots and they did fine. Overall I like my pair. They keep you dry and warm and that's what they're suppose to do. For the price I am very satisfied. They do the job but buy some bigger boots or don't wear boots.

They aren't the nicest waders, but then again, the nicest waders cost hundreds of dollars more than these. I've used them several times already this year for waterfowl hunting and trout fishing with no issues. If I was buying a pair just for cold weather waterfowl hunting, I would recommend an insulated boot model with thicker neoprene. I anticipate the thinner neoprene being awesome for trout fishing once it gets warmer. Overall, very satisfied with the performance and quality of the product for the price.

Good 3mm neoprene wader with great color!But with that said this wader is sized for very average built body frames!This is not a stout sized wader even if you order bigger sizes they just get longer!Not for folks with thick legs or broad in the mid section!

i bought a pair the season before last the max4 camo ones, and they fit fine. i used them 3-4 days a week hunting and they wore in great till they got a hole but that was because i used them plenty of times. so i purchased the max 5 camo and they fit all funky and i got a hole in them somehow and only wore them a few times the quality wasnt there.

This is my 2nd pair that I have bought in the past three years. I used them to duck hunt and to flot tube fish. They held up during both seasons thats good sense I go at least twice a week. I have bought other waders for allot more and have them fail in a shoter period.

If you really want extra large chest waders then look elsewhere. These are the right size at the waist for extra large but seem to be fitted for a 6'6" person. They don't even go on all the way up on me so the feet are loose (I am 5'10"). Other than that they seem to be well made. We'll see how they hold up, I am not kind to my waders.
