Troubleshooting

Waders are leaking.

Inspect the waders for punctures or tears. Small leaks can often be repaired with a patch kit. For larger leaks, contact Simms for repair or replacement.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to operate.

Clean the zipper with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a zipper lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

Waders feel clammy or uncomfortable.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate breathable layering. Check for any condensation buildup. Allow waders to dry thoroughly after each use.

Stockingfeet feel cold.

Wear warm, moisture-wicking socks. Consider using neoprene socks for added insulation in extremely cold conditions.
