Men’s Pro LT Wading Pants

Took these out on a rainy morning and the CORDURA fabric shed water like nothing I've owned before, though the waist-high cut meant my upper half got a bit damp. Still, for warmer days when chest waders feel like overkill, these are my new go-to.

The CORDURA fabric took a beating against sharp rocks on my last trip and didn't show a single scuff. I love that I can ditch the chest waders on warmer days but still feel protected.

The waist-high cut keeps my lower half dry without the sweaty bulk of full waders, and the CORDURA shell has shrugged off brush and rocks on three trips so far. Pockets sit high enough to stay clear of water when I'm wading deep, which is a detail I didn't know I needed until now.
