FAQs

Are wading boots included with these waders?

No, these are stockingfoot waders. You will need to purchase compatible wading boots separately.

How do I determine the right size for my waders?

Refer to the Vision sizing chart, considering your chest, waist, height, and shoe size for the stockingfoot portion. It's often recommended to try them on if possible.

Can I use these waders for saltwater fishing?

While primarily designed for freshwater, the durable materials and construction can withstand saltwater use. However, thorough rinsing with fresh water after each saltwater trip is crucial to prevent corrosion and material degradation.

What is the benefit of the No Seam™ leg design?

The curved No Seam™ design creates a more anatomical fit around the leg, reducing friction points and allowing for greater freedom of movement, which is essential for comfortable wading and casting.

How durable is the T4™ technical fabric?

T4™ fabric is engineered for durability, offering good resistance to abrasion and punctures, making it suitable for demanding fishing environments. The reinforced lower body further enhances this robustness.

Can the waterproof pouch hold a smartphone?

The clear flip-out TPU pouch is designed to hold smaller essential items like keys, wallets, or most standard-sized smartphones. Larger or bulkier devices may not fit.

What does 'PFC-free CO DWR coating' mean?

It means the water-repellent coating does not contain perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs), which are considered harmful to the environment. 'CO' likely refers to the type of chemical used as an alternative, offering durable water repellency in an eco-friendlier manner.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping into waders

Check all seams for damage. Inspect the stockingfeet and ensure there are no holes. If leaks persist, consider professional repair or replacement.

Zipper sticking or difficult to close

Clean the zipper teeth with water and a soft brush. Apply a zipper lubricant specifically designed for outdoor gear.

Reduced water repellency (beading effect lost)

The DWR coating may need reapplication. Clean the waders thoroughly and apply a PFC-free DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.

Gravel guards damaged or loose

Inspect for tears or separation. Minor tears can sometimes be repaired with fabric glue. If significantly damaged, they may require professional repair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are stockingfoot waders, meaning they feature integrated neoprene feet. To use them, you will need to purchase a pair of compatible wading boots. Ensure your wading boots are the correct size to accommodate the stockingfeet comfortably. Slip the stockingfeet into the boots, ensuring no large wrinkles form, and secure the boots according to their lacing system.

Compatibility: Compatible with all standard wading boots. The built-in gravel guards are designed to work seamlessly with most boot designs to prevent debris from entering.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your waders:

  1. Rinse: After each use, rinse the waders thoroughly with clean, cool water, both inside and out. Pay attention to zippers and seams.
  2. Dry: Always hang waders to air dry completely, away from direct sunlight or heat. Ensure they are fully dry inside and out before storing to prevent mildew.
  3. Washing: If necessary, hand wash with a mild soap or specialized wader cleaner. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding them tightly or placing heavy objects on top, which can damage the fabric or seals.
