Because I can get a brand new pair for $100, and if there aren't any problems with them, then I'm all about saving $200 Go to the bargain cave at cabelas it might take a trip or two before they have some in your size but my dad and I bought two pairs there for under 150 each both have lasted 4 seasons. Over the course of the summer they will keep getting cheaper from other retailers as well. Wait it it out. Better to save that 100 for something good than risk saving 200 on something that is known for leaking. I think I paid jsut under 100 for mine. Mine get used more but are still going strong I even caught them on barbed wire pretty good two weeks ago and nothing happened.
Never used photoshop and never will. Photoshop is for liberals.

If there is one thing to NOT cheap out on in waterfowling, it's waders. DING DING DING, nothing worse than a leg full of cold water at 5am, a 2 mile walk from the truck. Been there, done that. 21 degrees with a left leg filled to the thigh with ice cold water at 4:30 am. Not a fun hunt but I toughed it out till 9:00 lol two seasons ago I put a hole in the upper thigh area and it filled up with water. 25ish degrees. Right leg was numb from the knee down. These were cotton wader pants. (I know, I know, cotton is the anti-Christ of duck hunters) But we did have a pretty good hunt that day, I believe a 2 man, mostly widgeon and mallards.
Arise.Kill.Eat -Acts 10:13 I have read a bunch of stuff on the internet about Star Wars but that does not mean I can skin a deer with a light saber.

Two kinds of people vote democrat. Rich people that don't have to work, and poor people who don't want to work.

I got them at the beginning of the season and love them. I'll never own a different pair of waders http://www.rogerssportinggoods.com/roger...ar-p-14282.html
I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.
