I like the light weight uppers. Boots are heavier than my old chest waders so a tradeoff. Will wait on durability. Spent 2 weeks in NC fly fishing and am not totally thrilled with these waders. The seam with boot and pant leg rubs both shin bones to the point of causing a blister. The left shoulder strap kept sliding off shoulder regardless of tightness so was irritating. The overalls section fit fine and the boot lugs did ok on slippery rocks and rough bottom. I may take Gorilla tape and fix the boot to leg seam so it doesnt scratch my leg. Good quality.
