Breathable Wader Size

[XVIga_Rob]

Looking to make the move to breathable waders. Will be used for hunting. Due to a couple family & work commitments, I am not able to go try some on, but can order online at a pretty good price.
Since there is really no stretch to them. Comparing to your jeans. How much larger would you go, on the inseam? Also, chest size (allowing for layers/jacket)?

Depends on your size? Are you skinny, fat or extra fat? They come in Regular, Stout and King.

I'm fat, so I buy Stout, that works for me.

I just took a chance on the new Banded Redzone 2.0 that Banded has just upgraded and released, just ordered a set to try. I've had poor luck with breatheables. Hope they can hold up.

I would like a set of 3MM neoprene, but most don't come in fat size. I'm using a set of Cabela's 5MM Super Mag waders. They're good, except way too thick / bulky for California hunting.

If you are shorter than 5’-10” get the stout .. any taller get the king

I picked up some Lacrosse breathable waders. They were on sale for $250. I checked the sizing chart and all was good. Banded should have a sizing chart.

I was unable to leave the house this weekend to try to find a pair to try on. I was forced to watch a bunch of YouTube reviews, to base a decision. All the reviews seem to indicate that they run a little big on top. Not many say much or anything about the inseam. I’d rather them be a little long, than too short. We’ll see.

Just get your normal shoe size unless the description of the item says otherwise. I'm 5'11-200 and regular (not stout) have always been fine even when laying undernearth. I tried on a stout one time at Sportsman's as it was deeply discounted and it was wayyyyyy to big up top.

Got my set of Banded Redzone 2.0 yesterday from Rodger's. I'm 5-10 / 240 #. I bought an 11 Stout.

These waders are HUGE. The waist belt, I had to choke up on it almost 3/4 around. I'm a 42 waist and the waist on these are about 60 as is the chest.

The shoulder straps are made for someone 7' tall, I had to shorten them also about 85%. The inseam was fine.

I probably would have fit fine in a regular size.

Every other set of Stout waders have fit me fine, none have ever been this big. I'm going to keep them, they are useable. Just very surprised how big they are.

All the reviews I read/watched said the Redzone's run BIG on top. Not much talk about inseam/length. I'd say if you're under 5' 8", go with the short version.
