The chest pocket actually fits my phone and tippet spool, which my last pair never managed. Wore them for six hours wading a rocky river and barely noticed the weight. They just do the job without fighting me.

These are way lighter than my old pair, and I barely noticed the weight while hiking a few miles to the creek. The reinforced knees held up great when I knelt on rocks to net a fish, and they stayed dry the whole time.

Wore these on a full day of backcountry casting and the lighter build made a huge difference — way less bulky than heavier waders I've owned, so no sweaty slog back to the truck. They stayed dry and held up fine through brush and rocks. Genuinely impressed.
