Default Waders - Thanks everybody

Just wanted to say *thanks* for the many responses to my post on
waders for cold conditions. Looks like the breathables with
appropriate layering is the key to keeping warm. Now my next decision
is breathable nylon or Gortex.

Again, thanks to all for their responses and information/advice. It
has helped a lot.



GoreTex is just WL Gore and Associate's patented name for their own version
of micropore breathable material. By now, with all the competitors working
to develop their own micropore fabrics, I would not show any product
dedication to Gore over a cheaper product. Go for ANY breathable product,
regardless of whether it says 'GoreTex' or not. You'll save money and still
get to fart in your waders.
