Whatever ones you choose save the box to send them back in and make sure of how long the warranty is in effect. It cost about ten dollars to send one pair back and brown wrapping paper to cover the box. It sure makes the fact that they leaked easier to swallow if you are assured of getting new ones just by saving the box and spending ten dollars for shipping. We all have two pair anyways.

I switched to stocking foot waders because I do a lot of walking on the beach. Putting on the waders is no big deal. With the proper foot ware I have found that I get almost no sand at all in my boots. Time will tell how long these will last. FishHawk

Orvis has an impressive warranty claims department.

They send you a brand new pair no questions asked. In my case anyway.

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

The big advantage of stocking foot waders in the rocks is the degree of ankle support they offer. By the same token, they do fill with sand on the beach which gets quite annoying. You don't need the toughness of G3's, however, if you are fishing on sand.
