Do the patch thing already described on inside and out.
I put a 5oz canal special through the crotch of my breathables three nights ago(fortunately I wasn't wearing them at the time) and employed the above technique. Works fine. If you need extra support, put some heavy duct tape over the repair. Works wonders. No leaks last night.
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
Well one thing I learned is that if the hole is small, meaning small enough to not warrant a ptach of material, the best and quickest method is a drop of Super Glue ( non water soluble like Zap-a-Gap) inside and out, the chemical reaction bonds to the materials and itself through the pin hole and hardens like rock.
The spot is maybe a 1/4 inch around the 1/8 inch puncture. Tested after a several hour cure and not a drop of water came through.
I rembered I did this on my first ever breathables and it worked slicker than shizit. On bigger stuff I will definetly do the aquaseal and patch gig. The Zap-a-Gap hole fixes outlasted the waders.
Did that last year.
the disadvantage is the stiffness.
put a dab of seal over the hole inside and out. just in cast you bent it the wrong way...

I'm glad this thread is up. I have a hole in the booty of my breathables. how would you guys go about repairing that? I Tried super glue and it didn't work in fact may have made it worse. The booty is a neoprene type of material by the way.
