i expect to go thru a pair a season- if i get a season and a half out of them great..... for years i swore by the orvis silver labels (but they did leak) last fall i bought a pair of simms they have a small leak in the right knee- over the years ive come to expect all waders leak so i deal with it- 1 wave in the face far outpaces the small leaks anyway.

one observation i have made over the years is that a good pair of waders out of the box in the spring i.e. that do not have any leaky seams hold up fine thru the summer unless i tear them.... usually by sept. the seams in the ankles, knees and crotch start to leak. i leave my waders in the truckk 99% of the time from april thru december- it seems that being in the "hot car" breaks down the glue they use to hold the seams together.
