Default Last years waders

At some point in the not too distant future I'm going to need some new chest waders. (Or a bigger towel.)
I know you can sometimes get good deals on last years model of rods & reels, but are there good regular deals to be had on things like waders and what's the best time of year to be looking?

It's like they say about waiting for a bus, wait for an hour than two come along at once.

Personally, if I need waders, I just go out and buy waders. Life is too short to be walking around in waders that leak. Shop for the best deal you can and then just buy them.

I think the only way to get a deal on waders is the old preemptive strike. If you're waders are a couple of years old, then you KNOW you'll be needing new ones sooner or later. So in this situation, if you see a deal, jump on it like an alligator on a poodle.

But if you have my luck, you'll never see that deal when you need them.

Most products in the UK are discontinued October/November time to make way for the new models coming out. However, a lot of the wholesalers hold quite big stocks so 'bargains' can be had for some time after that, sometimes up to 6 or 7 months after

This is a product that was discontinued in October last year and is still very popular
