Don't think Tom Stokes is the biggest of chaps. My waders have a draw string at the top for a snugger fit and obviously to keep water out. They don't need drawing in much to be fair..

I hate watching fishing related stuff with the misses. They do say the stupidest things at times..

They do yes but I did wonder why they in General they fit tight rather than loose,wider means more water intake but easier to get out of, a snug fit would mean less water but probably harder to get out of .

Waders are those limp of wrist types to real men go naked.

It does make me wonder how we managed before the yellow strap brigade made chest waders fashionable..
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
