So I need to finally replace my last pair of cheap Caddis Waders and I'm willing to spend a little more money on a new pair. I have patched the heck out of my Caddis waders over the last few years and even patched some patches. It's just time.
I know there are the usual Simms, Orvis and Patagonia waders that always get highly recommended but I'm curious about Dryft. I like the idea supporting a local company (I know they are not made in the USA) and they seems to have a great warranty.
I've always bought cheaper waders that I just patch until they're finally ready to be replaced but I've been thinking about trying some of higher quality this time. I understand the pro and cons of cheaper vs higher end in general but just really curious about Dryft specfically and was hoping someone here has used them? The good, the bad and ugly? I know even higher end wader still have a limited lifetime so while willing spend a little, but not up to the top end from the Big 3.
I might still end up with one of the usual suspects but just wanted to hear about Dryft.
Thanks in advance.
