Vass are as good bud and the best, others will still do the job tho mate so don't be out off. I got some vass ones but I've had Trakker and other brands like fox aswell they will all do the job for you mate

Have a look at PRO S waders. Very reasonably priced and get pretty good reviews. I have a pair I used for most of last season. So far so good.

I can't stand that tho so won't be wearing them for pics 😂😂 a couple of the lakes I fish have shallow bays that the carp like to get in. But landing them from the bank when the water is down is almost impossible as for 15-20 yds out it's less than a ft deep then drops down a little. And I'm joining a club where you have to do a couple of work parties to get a night ticket so waders will come in handy

Well made, hard wearing, keep there shape and actually last, unlike other brands of waders I've used.

Ok, mine are 7 years old and still do everything the Vass seem to do. Would be interesting to see how long the Vass last.

Liverpool waders “Fishfarm Pro” are the best I've used. Had nine years from my current pair and they've been battered and abused on countless work parties during that time, only just need replacing now.
