[QUOTE="Crosshairy, post: 5018707, member: 3202"] Can you clarify what you mean? Water is stuck in the folds of the fabric? Or it soaks into the material? 3 friends of mine who are avid duck hunters all converted to the Rogers breathable waders this year. They have gone on and on (and on) about how it's as comfortable as being in a sleeping bag compare to neoprene. I have been wearing the same pair of neoprene waders (Cabela's ultra mag) for going on 7 years after several patch jobs. I don't duck hunt as hard as they do - probably 8-10 trips per season, but I've still gotten WAY more than my money's worth out of that pair. I am thinking of following in their footsteps and trying a breathable pair out next year as well. My main reason is that the breathable ones appear to be a lot more open in the top, and I'd like the option of wearing my heavy coat *inside* of the waders. There's zero chance I would ever do that with my neoprene ones unless I got incredibly skinny. My intention is to continue to store my neoprene pair well and hopefully keep them as a backup pair just in case... They have probably 6 or 7 Aquaseal patches on them and still don't leak, but sheer age says they are due to die any day now. [/QUOTE]
