I have been using the Cabela's Guide Tech Dry Plus for a while now. They usually last me about 2 seasons before they need to be replaced. A little touch up in the crotch with some silicone keeps them going. That area is the one flaw as the seam leaks about half way into a season. Otherwise, they have been great.

Returned last season's pair this week. Intended on replacing with the same ones, but they did not have them in stock at the East Hartford store, and I needed them ASAP, so I went with the new Guide Wear Dry Plus. They look to be the same material but they have the dry pocket on the outside and a couple added inside pockets in place of the weird detachable exterior pocket. That thing was the one part of the GT's that I did not like. I always removed that thing right away as it was too bulky under my dry top.

For boots, I picked up a pair of Cabela's ultra light wading boots last year. They are decent, but might not last if I wore waders more often. For the price, they are a good deal, and the Cabela's warrantee can't be beat.

Of course, the waders get less and less use now that i wear my wetsuit most of the time. The waders only really come out early and late in the season.
