...A- so far. Comfortable. I didn't sweat my balls off. Material dries fast. And I can't get over how well built they are.

Only negative, and it's kinda silly, but the material is very stiff and kinda loud when you walk or move. Maybe cause they're new. I'm hoping they'll break in a bit in that regard. Otherwise I'm happy as a pig in shit with em and would recommend em

Best way to get rid of the noise is to do all your walking in chest deep water. :o
They're drysuit material covered in codura, I doubt they'll get quiet. But hey, at least they'll remind you to quit fidgetting so much in the blind. :lol:

They've been making a lot of changes the past feww months. I have the owners number somewhere, if I can find it.
When I bought mine, they weren't offering as many options to add on as now. You can even add water proof zippers and different pocket options etc. They were only talking about that when I bought mine. I should mention, add ons are added on costs too. Tealer says he added on to a final price of $374 he went with zippered pockets and other add ons. So, it can add up.

yea I thought "oh cool" when I heard about the add ons. That's is until I did the math. Ended up just adding belt loops is all.

Wore em all day yesterday and loved em

Here's a review for you on USIA. I went out for a short while this morning, trying to get a few birds. Well, as luck would have it, I sprung a nleak in my USIA waders. I only lasted 1 1/2 hours with my wet foot and freezing temps.(the birds not cooperating didn't help me stay either). I swung by USIA before heading home and 10 minutes later they were fixed.
The leak I got is something you guys who recently bought waders will never see. I have a first generation set of waders and the cordura overlayment does not run the full length on the back of the legs like the waders they are making now. So. I have a spot on the inside of my legs that can rub bare drysuit against each other. It rubbed a small hole at the knee.
Anyway, my point is they stood behind their stuff.
I think I'll get a hold of the owner and see if they can cover the portion that is not covered but, it will have to wait until after the season.

Hey Red, I wore my USIA waders for hunts in WY.

This second picture was taken shortly after I crossed a river chest deep. Would not have made it in my 5mm neoprenes.
All I did to hunt the extreme colds was add wool pants and long john.
