Funny you mention that...I got a brand new pair from Rogers after last season - breathable w/lining. Hung them up but when I went to use this this year I noticed a cut through the shin area. I don't have a clue how it happened to so I sewed it and covered the seam with Shoe Goo. It held for a time or two then developed another leak. I patched the second area inside and out, if they leak again they're going in the trash. My last pair of breathables from Bass Pros lasted more than 10 years.
Ephesians 2 : 8-9
Job 19:25-27 (NKJV): For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth; And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, That in my flesh I shall see God
I'm on my second season with High N Dry and I am still happy with them.
bring back the old bass pro or herters breathables.
Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.
My first pair of canvas waders were unstoppable.. second favorite were some lacrosse brush toughs
Those lacrosse brush tuffs were dang near indestructible. First pair I had I wore for 10 years

My brush tuffs made it a year and a half .... but I basically used them as briar britches for most of my hunts back then.
I'd be rolling sweat walking in those things.
Cabelas neoprene are the stuff!
I had a set of those Cabelas Alaskan neoprene, can't remember the amount of insulation in the boots.. those things were crazy warm. I do remember they were 5mm. I was heading out to hunt Mexico and those were my only set that didn't have a leak.. eons ago.
I ended up buying like the basic basic I believe lacrosse to take down there. They had zero protection. I didn't think it was a big deal until day two, and I began a crippling march to get to a small island to poop on... they were shredded, brush and thorns.. basically useless after that. Thankfully it was in the 70s until the day we left.
