Pros
After going through about 5 pairs of other brands of breathable waders in the last 10-12 years I finally bought these Simms and couldnt be more happy with them. They are now into their 4th year of use with at least 75 days a year in them and I have not had a single complaint or problem. I feel you will not find a better wader for under $200 then these Simms. Absolutly great pair of waders!

Cons
Not a single Con to them in my opinion!

Pros
I have had mine for a season and a half now and no complaints. They have been worn in every season and passed with flying colours. To clean them I use the Simms recommended Revivex and they are as good as new. I don't think I will have to purchase new waders for a long time.

Pros
I'm on my second pair already this summer. I'm averaging about 15 days a month in mine. I like the waders, but if/when you have a problem with them, it seems like it takes forever to hear from Simms Customer Service. I'll probably try a different brand if I don't hear back from Simms anytime soon on the problems I'm having with the pair I'm wearing now.

Pros
I have had mine three years. The LK size fits us "stocky" guys well! Lightweight. Good product for the price.

Cons
Mine have just recently developed a small slow leak in the crotch which appears to be from wear caused by walking. I have not yet attempted to pin point the leak or fix it.
