So why does this Simms wader bag...

Have waterproof welded zippers and perforated sides?

So the zipper won't corrode shut and the waders can air out and not stink.

Welded zippers can still corrode like any other zipper can't they? I thought the just had the rubber seal?

I believe the zippers are non-corrosive. Are you looking for a bag just for waders or a larger size to carry your pocket book and makeup case? If you just want a good bag for waders, go on the Simms site. They have wader bags for much cheaper than the one you linked to.

Not in the market for a wader bag. I just saw this when shopping for other stuff and found it odd.
