Pros
My wife bought these waders for me for Christmas 2005. so I've had them about 8 months. So far they have been great. No problems. My last 2 pair were cheaper bass pro brand breathables - these were OK but starting leaking at about a year. I would give them a 10 if I were more sure of the durability and they had attached gravel guards.
Cons
No attached gravel guards
Uncertain of durability - yet.

Pros
After owning and going through about 8 pairs of Hodgman waders, I had enough. I went out and bought these waders just a week after throwing out my old Hodgmans. These waders are awesome. The only 2 holes that are in them are from a slip and fall down a hill last fall, and while puting in the dock up at the cabin. No other leaks or anything from walking through the woods, bursh etc. IMO, the best pair of wders that a angler can buy, without breaking the bank.
Cons
None that I can think of.

Pros
I do a lot of walking where I fly fish. Comfort and light weight plus durability were my conserns. Ive owned the Simms Lightweights for almost three years and up to this time they have been very durable, and I love the fact that I hardly know I have them on. I even duck hunt in them, which is a complement to their durability
Cons
I cant think of any cons to these wadders

Pros
These waders are the best I've ever had--period! Light weight, flexible even when kneeling and casting; I'm well into second season fishing 2x weekly walking at least 2 miles each time and no wet pants!!
Cons
Ok, so you do need thermal underwear if the temps go below 45 degrees or so but that is not a problem.

Pros
I give these waders a 10 in their price catagory. Light breathable 3x gore tex were you need it. Have hiked through rugged thick BC forest getting jabbed by broken dried out tree branches repeatedly and stil no leaks!
