I have simms, patagucci, redington, cheap allens, orvis, llbean.


Simms used to be great in their warranty, not anymore IMO. I have issues with wading boots falling apart and waders leaking with minimal use and simms would not stand behind them like they used.I think their quality has diminished quite a bit. Id buy the freestones on sale but wouldn't spend over $200.

Id. look for a patagucci on sale. Can pick up for under $200. Great warranty still

LLbean decent for price and still decent warranty.
