Wader sizing?? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I would go with the proper foot size. Baggy is ok. I've always bought stocking foot waders for fly fishing. That way you can buy more comfortable boots. Although, you don't do much walking in a kayak.

Definitely go by the foot size. Mine are a little baggier than id like however, I am comfortable. The waders that fit my legs best had small feet which was a terrible feeling.

Yep. Sorry, I assumed you were looking at boot foot waders because you were talking about foot sizes. You definitely want the large.

$86 bucks is a great deal for this zip-front wader. It looks like this is the same one a bunch of us bought couple of months ago. Great opportunity for people that missed out on the last sale, and this is a better deal.

Hey Eric,

I have those waders in large. They are a little big for me both in length and the boot size. I am 5' 9", 9 1/2" shoe. As you know, I am a bit bigger around the middle than you. My waders work fine but I wish I had gotten the Medium.

Next time we meet, you can try mine on for size. PM me if you want to come to my house.

Bob
