thinking of getting waders before cooler waters of winter roll in. Which pants and waders are dry and recommended users? Light and mobile, yet not too costly? Thanks Gents JIMMY

Hodgman makes some nice breathable waders. The sell them at Sports Authority and Cabelas.

Get the one's with a zipper so's you can relieve yourself without totally disrobing. In my opinion that's the only drawback to my waders.

I've never seen a set with a zipper, is there a manufacturer that make a set?

I had zippered ones but the zipper didn't hold up very well and leaked slightly from the get go. Wasn't that much more convenient than just slipping the straps off my shoulders and rolling down anyways. The ones I have now (can't remember where I got them) have a little velcro pouch in the front that has proven to be a great place to keep keys, sunglasses, lobster gauge, license, and even a jig or hook or two.
