2 years seems to be my average. $ don't seem to = life in any waders I have owned to date. Redingtons were dead in 2 years, Orvis proguides weeping at 2 years. This time I bought Beans, I think it was medsummer and so far so good. I would say that always before I had bootfoots and these are stockingfoots. The difference in how far I can walk night after night is amazing. The other thing is my wading boots are the studded aquastealth and they are much better than korkers. Might not cut thru bubbleweed but they grip black rocks and I don't feel like I have snow built up on the bottom of my shoes.
