Brian, I am 6'-6" with a 40 inch waist and a 36 inseam. Two companies make waders that should fix you up right out of the box. LaCrosse and Hodgeman. They both make waders for your build. RedTop in Buzzards Bay has Hodgeman and you can buy direct on-line form LaCrosse. Cabelas and BassPro also have both breathables and Neoprenes for the big guy.

Why even try.........

I just looked in the cabelas catalog Guide Tech Dry-plus Bootfoot&Stockingfoot $219 bootfoot $189 stockingfoot.Simms will cost close to double.but,you get what you pay for.Orvis around $325.

cool beans.. thanks for the heads up...

ill have to take a ride down to redtop.. i forget the brand... might of been hodgemans, but i tried on the biggest that #^&#^&#^&#^&s carried and it was slightly too snug.. I need to lose 20lbs.. hehe

Im a little wary about buying my first ones from a catalog for that reason...

Thanks for the leads...

cabelas has a sizing chart right on the page.I've had a size problem in the past with waders ordered through the catalog.I called cabelas and let them know and the next size up was sent right out and i sent the others back no questions asked.

Ive had all the above and cabelas is a good one if you can get to the store and try them on, my favorite right now is LL.Bean Waders I bought the ones with the boot built right in ...
West Branch Integrated Boot-Foot Waders, Aqua Stealth
lil pricey at 269.00 for them but when i had a small hole somewhere and all i did was take the waders in still wet and NO QUESTIONS asked replaced them without a receipt...
