ive had simms bootfoots for 3 years now no leaks except the hook I put in the thigh , Ive walked through woods ,jetty, beach....the best...after a long walk on the beach you dont even notice them. For cold weather i add silks and sweats
wicking sox keep the feet feeling dry [mountain climbing stores sell the sox]
the silks do the same wicking job.

I can order them as I'm a Simms dealer, but I don't carry the G3. Just the lightweight bootfoot wader, and those I've somewhat phased out since the comprably priced Orvis product seems to be more durable.

I just returned a pair of LL Bean fly weight waders, (because they were leaking around where the boot and wader meet) I wanted to up grade and
they didn't have the pair of breathables I wanted so they said to do a direct replacement and as soon as the pair I wanted came in stock to just return the new ones and get the pair I want. I believe they just want you to be completely happy with there product. right now almost every pair of waders they stock is back ordered

Orvis will still send a new pair replacement if your granfathered in. Bought my first pair 12 years ago and had 1 replacement no charge after 6 years. Then this year returned again and as the price had gone up from my first pair had to pay the $50 difference plus the $10 to ship back the old pair. Still not a bad deal.
