RedBeard Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Does anyone have experience with Loop waders? A fellow member sent me a site with waders on sale and one of the brands is Loop.. I can't find much in the way of online reviews for these waders. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxwell Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 or worn a few models the optis and multis they are nice waders somewhere in the middle of the road I would rank them I really liked to option to roll down the tops and when crossing pulling them back up over my jacket and such if I needed to! they held up just as well as most other waders in similar price ranges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydropsyche Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 If money was no object and the main consideration was durability, what would everyone recommend? Booted or bootie? I've heard Wardel's are very good. Anyone have any experience with Snobee's? I hear they have a poly formed bootie with no seams and that appeals to me because waders always seem to leak at the bootie seams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ÜberFly Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Talk to Colin (cdone). He's Snowbee prostaff and will have the answers you seek. The Snowbee waders he has have lasted a longtime. And if memory serves me correctly, Snowbee was the 1st to develop front zippered waders that everyone one else copied!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they were the first however they have been successful with the ones they have manufactured. Yes your right about durability I'm on season 3 with my current pair of Prestige zip fronts and got 5 seasons out of my XS Pro zip fronts (as a matter of fact they still hang in my basement as a back up pair). Like any wader though there's still a chance of tears if you are climbing over barb wire fences, heavy bush whacking, sliding down hills on your butt (right Neil), ect. My first piece of advice for anyone trying on waders is make sure your boots fit snugly, this stops your feet from moving around and causing the neoprene to bunch and compress. http://www.snowbee.co.uk/fly-fishing/wading/ Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
