What type are you looking for?
Whats your budget?
Do you need neoprene / insulted for colder weather?
Do you want the ones that have the boots already attached?

Neoprene waders with boots attached as previously stated,
But get the ones with the texture on the outside of them.
I believe these are what i'm talking about at Academy

(Cabelas has them, and originated this style i think, but they are more like $200)

Hodgman makes a good brand, cabela's, redhead, LaCrosse.

Prices will range from 140-250.00 depending on brand and how much insulation you actaully want or need.

Switched to waist highs a few years back, went away from neoprene back to lightweight Hodgman waist hi, got them at Lafayette Shooters. Best set up ever

yeah I have a waste high pair by Cabelas that are light for the fields. No need for heavy neoprenes in that environment. Just something to keep you clean & dry.

Exactly, I use them in the marsh as well.

If I was standing in water all day, I would definitely look at the neoprenes again.

do not and i repeat do not think you can get a cheap pair and get away with them for a few years. go out and spend around $200 and get a good pair from cabelas. I bought this pair 4 years ago and they finally died on me last year....so i went and bought the exact same ones again. Where i hunt its very thick and rough on them but they lasted a long time.

I prefer Canvas to Neoprene. Neoprene is too hot for me.

So far I really like my Cabelas First Flight waders, great for the money and very practical for here in La. Think they have about 400 grams of Thinsulate (no need for more down here unless you hunt standing in the water all morning) and have found the material to breathe well and be very light. Think they're only about $140 in camo. When it gets cold, I wear Columbia PHG fleece wader pants underneath them, when hot, just running shorts (like teal season).
