simms are terrible...

go dan bailey and get more for your money and support a company that trusts in their own product enough to honor their warranty.

i sent in an old pair of bailey waders that were past their life, the wear done to the wader showed that it was used so heavily that the warranty didnt cover it, so they gave me half the retail price of those towards any pair...

i was happy with this considering my waders looked like they were in a war... there wasnt many seams that didnt have aqua seal on them and the over all look of the material looked super worn out.

the guy on the phone had to apologize for chuckling because he said it was one of the most worn out pair of waders he had ever seen.
he wad dumbfounded when i told him i only wore them for 16 months and didnt use them may-october...
they dont make waders for some of the hiking i do.
