I'm looking for a new pair of breathable waders. Due to my height and shoe size, finding a pair seems to be an impossibility. I've tried the largest available sizes from the following brands and they're too small so I wanted to see if there are any lesser known brands anyone might recommend:
Simms
Orvis
Frogg Toggs
Compass 360
Hodgman

I've had luck with bigcamo.com and frog toggs.

I think simms will custom make some sizes as well.

Back in the day I had some 3x Columbia that fit great.

Redington and Dryft are too small as well. I have a pair from Hisea on order so hopefully they will fit. I don't know if I could justify $800 for a custom pair of Simms.

I don't know if USIA waders are still in business but worth looking at and are incredibly durable. They did/do lots of custom sizes.

D'oh! The Hisea ones were too small as well. My torso is just too tall. My old Wright & McGill waders measure 28" from the seam at the groin to the top of the waders. These only measure 24".
