It just dawned on me that perhaps Mr. Sullivan's waders have the knee patches
sewn on up-side-down, so that the "v" notch is above the knee instead of
below.

If that's the case, I can see how they could fill up and retain water out of
the stream, which might even rise to the level of "aggravating"...

Nope, the slit is on the bottom of the patch. The problem is the space
gets completely filled with water, which adds a considerable ammount of
weight, and being in the water for several hours having to wade around
with it is kind of a pain. I will probably just send them back and get
the pro guides, which I have been told dont retain water.
