Three years ago I bought a spare pair of waders that I didn't really need. There was a sale...
So I got a spare pair of 5 mm neoprene from cabelas and left them in the box for three years. (that's a mistake)
Three weeks ago I decided to try out my "new" waders.
First complaint...they are 3 mm not 5. I still have my original receipt and am betting that cabelas will give me the blues over trying to get satisfaction.
Second complaint...they leak like crazy at the inseam at the crotch. I'm repairing them and that voids any warranty I may have thought I had.
Bottom line FUCK CABELAS.
I've heard nothing good about them in years.
BANDED is the next waders I get.
Talked to guys yesterday at the launch. Overheard them talking waders, what is good, and why.
They said that Banded had issues when they first started, solved the issues, and are making the best waders to get try and get their customers back.
