MOUNTALK Breathable Wader Women/Men, High Chest Lightweight Insulated Waders for Fly Fishing Waders (Green, Medium)

I've been tenkara fishing for a couple of years while wet wading or bank fishing when it was cold. I got invited on an October trip with a group of fishermen and knew that I'd have to have waders to compete. I'm frugal to a fault when I'm not sure how much utilization I'll get out of something, so I didn't want to spend tons of money on a pair of waders. I also wanted the "booty" style for the compact size and lightweight as I may take them backpacking or long walk-ins.I came across these waders and am glad I did. I was very surprised at how compact and light they really are. They pack up very well. I had some qualms over which size to order, but at 5'10" 165# I went with a medium which fit really well. It has more room in the waist than I need, but not that much more and the belt cinches it in nicely. I did find the booties to be quite a bit larger than I expected and almost couldn't cram them in to the beater sneakers I was using, but I made it work. Getting them on and off was fast and easy, and I was able to adjust the belt and suspenders for a comfortable fit.Other than that, I found the durable over the course of some light bushwhacking and normal use. I have not developed any leaks and I'm able to layer warm clothes underneath to stay warm. The booties are quite warm and kept my feet dry. They really worked well and got me to fish that I would not have otherwise been able to reach, so I would recommend these budget waders.

I ordered a size medium. I am 5'5" and weigh 165 lbs. The waders fit perfect when I am wearing bluejeans and a lightweight shirt. Also, I wear a size 9 shoe so my wading shoes are a size 10. They also fit well this way. If I gain even 10 lbs. I would buy a size medium stout . The quality of the waders are very good. I used them fishing for salmon on the Pere Marquette in Michigan. I had to walk through light brush and climb over a few downed trees to get to our fishing site every day. The waders held up well. I would definitely recommend them to others.

This review is for fit and size only since I haven’t field tested the waders yet. Will follow up after I use them a few times. I got the medium size. I’m 5’8 1/2, 170 pounds and wear a size ten shoe. The waders fit me well, proportionately everywhere. The stocking feet had plenty of room, the inseam, (I’m about a 32), was comfortable and the chest height was perfect. I have size 11 wading boots and they fit the stocking feet just right. Not too big not too small. I won’t be embarrassed when other anglers see me in these, they look good. I had my doubts after trying to decipher other manufacturers size chats but took a chance because of price and free returns. I’m happy with the fit, I hope they hold up in the stream. Hope this helps anyone who is close to my size.

Used these the 1st time today and they performed as advertised. They are easy to move in and very light. As for the sizing, I'm 5'9" 200 lbs, with a very non-athletic build. The Med just fit, if I gain another 5 lbs. I may have to get a large. The length and would fit someone up to about 6ft. The only question left is their durability. That will take time (hopefully) to gauge.

I figured for 50 bucks there's no way these would get a thumbs up. I was wrong.Have used them about 30 times in two and a half months. So far zero leaks.I'm 5'11", 175 lbs, size 10 foot, ordered the mediums. Fit is great all around save for maybe wanting an extra inch of inseam for any deep knee bends, but was willing to trade that off for not having excess material everywhere else. Material is breathable as claimed. I don't do any major hiking in these, just staying dry fly fishing frigid tailwaters and mountain creeks. The large zippered chest pocket works well and the cuffs keep out grit and gravel. The three belt loops could be a bit heavier duty. The plastic buckle inserts are good so far.We'll see how long they remain leak-free but so far the product is a remarkable value.

Waste of money. Put the new waders on and as soon as I got in the water my leg gets soaked. You're better off wrapping garbage bags around your legs than wearing these pieces of garbage.

Seems to be sized for male not female. Otherwise nice waders for the money.

The fit is a little loose for a reason. When I sit or squat, the inseam has room so you don’t choke your twig and berries. Also in frigid waters, you have room to layer up. No leaks so far under strong currents and heavy brush areas. You just can’t go wrong with the price.
