So I finally gave in and bought a pair of waders last week, figured the extra large should be perfect from there fit guide. (Caddis brand) Upon using on a lobster trip I found out they fit perfect except where the neoprene booty meets the pant leg, there was a thick seam that was too small to get over my calf which caused the booty to be 6 inches longer than my foot... Brought them back and salesman at sports chalet was surprised they didn't fit there so had me try on a large, double X and a Xl stout and all had same problem, same size legs in both just bigger everywhere else... anyone else have this problem? 5'11" 210 Afraid to order some nice ones online to find out there wrong size...
