I've had those Puppies keeping me dry. One set (chesties) I just wore out, others .. save for the point of this post .. are going strong.

JD (my fishing partner) had a problem with one of his, so I let him mine and he fished the hell out of them for months. No Prob.

Finally had one set (waist highs) with a 'problem;' 30 bucks worth of Aquaseal and no joy. Finally just called them and asked if they could repair the bootie parts? Sent them in ....

Call back from John seconds ago. Can't, and a new set in the mail to you in a couple of days.


THAT BOYS AND GIRLS IS A WARRANTY!

Hi Fred

Orvis service is nearly that good.

BK

Had mine for 8 years, rock climbing and bramble bashing!
no problem with the waders letting in, but this year neoprene boot foot parted through middle on both feet!, just a measure of how often they were on!
can reccomend them for toughness in all conditions.

A first for me, but with you on that Bert. I've had the odd 'ok, where the hell is it 'weep-leak' and the 'can you fix it?' ones saw hard river work for at least three years .... then "Puff."

As BK notes, similar with Orvis waders. Sooner or later ... not a 'if but a when?' There may be a problem the owner can't solve with Aquaseal/Shoe Goop/what-ever. And that's where the 'seller' makes Corporate Decisions on just how good do we want our warranty to be?

The Good Guys think Gold Plated; and the GOOD feed back they get on the Internet probably sells another $100,000 worth of stuff. A 'Ah Shxt, I/we fought, they fluffed me, et. al. probably cost them $200.000 in potential sales.

In the fishing equipment business, and God knows the world is awash in the stuff, PERCEPTION is everything if you want to be in 'The Game' and get someone to pull out their credit card.

Numbers/Game works for me. But what do I know?
