Sure you lose bigtime
?? You send them back and now you have to wait for another pair and get stuck without waders for how ever many weeks it takes for a new pair to be sent out?? Not only that but you had to deal with the leak in the first place? good thiong it wasnt cold! nope I would rather be comfy and warm than deal with leaks and have to go thru the hassle of waiting for a refund check or another pair of waders....
