Redington Sonic weld front zip. I don't have the front zip version, but they are tough and burly and I couldn't be more happy with them.

The closed back on the Swales is not great, but the zipper is far superior.

I've never had a problem with the zipper on the Weir waders, and I fished them for 4 years (3 days a week).. The one I have may be too small for you (BNIB, Medium).

This is my first post here, and I want to thank the members for all the information they provide.


I am new to kayaking ( just bought a used one) and this weekend will be the first time on my own kayak.

I plan to fish. Not new to fishing though. Maybe later diving with kayak.
