Not sure why it is so hard to make waders with seams that don't leak.....and their $150 wading boots didn't last the season...corroded eyelets all broke off.
Make better products and there will be less returns

Same here Bob,,, eyelets popped, still wearing with 3 missing... Dah

Yeah I was old school and was a neoprene guy but, finally caved and bought my first pair back in 13 and felt guilty on the first leak bringing them back and getting a newer version of what I bought the previous year...

Any hoo, got a new pair every year at someone's expense and lost touch with reality,but deep down knowing nobody works for free.

I don't,do you?


I don't blame them at all,I'm a huge contributor / buyer of LL Bean. I still have jackets that are 20 YO and are up to snuff.



Yea I'm gonna miss that trade in of my waders, but the bottom line is being responsible for what we own and purchase.
