Re: Simms Waders
You can't compare any other brands top of the line waders to Simms top of the line waders. Simms top end waders are made in Bozeman, Montana. I will always shell out more American fiat notes to help support American jobs.
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

Re: Simms Waders
I bought a pair of Orvis waders and they are leaking after about 5 trips to the West Branch of the D.

Re: Simms Waders
Wait, let me dump my Orvis stock before you do that. With the amount you own the company will take quite a hit Originally Posted by MACFLY

You don't own any orvis stock. You only invest in comemaritive NASCAR memorabilia. Originally Posted by WBDluver

Re: Simms Waders
Started out with SIMM's L2's, now I have moved up to the G4Z's... SIMMS waders and a cockroach, the only two things able to survive an atomic blast. Those of you who fish with me, can attest to how hard I abuse my waders. I know JC abuses his like a red headed step child and they are still going strong...
My dad's got the G4z's too, and early duck season hell wear them, walking through briars and what not. GOING STRONG!

Re: Simms Waders
Simms, dont waste your time with these haters. They will never no the joy of owning top shelf equipment. They are content to put Aquaseal all over their waders and brag about he money they saved Originally Posted by Simms
