Hello,

I'm trying to find a sock style chest wader that's will fit a size 15
foot. I'm 6'3", 215lb, with a 48" chest, 36" inseam and 38" waist.
The only ones I found (I can't remember which they were when searching
on line), that could support a size 15 foot, seemed to be geared for
someone who was otherwise about 300lb. Anyone have any ideas, or am I
going to have to get them custom made?


You're SOL. My problems with waders a I have feet too wide (EEEE) and
legs too short (I'm 5"11" but my inseam is only 28" - my height is mostly in
my headg). I end up with booties that are 2" too long *(and still tight)
and legs with 6" of excess material.

I've toyed with the idea of custom waders, but it's pretty expensive . It
sounds to me like all you need is a custom bootie so maybe it wouldn't be so
bad. If you have any dive shops around, maybe you can get them to do a
bootie modification for you (the one near me does neoprene repairs).
