I am 6ft and currently 330lbs. I wear a size 54 suit jacket, 3xl or 4xl shirt, 12 an 13 shoe, and pants length is a 30. I ordered the 3xl and have worn and fished in them about 5 times now.I’ve got a big gut so I was worried about getting these and them not fitting. They are tight around my belly but they fit well enough that I’m not worried about busting a seam if I take a big breath lol. I will say that I have to pull them down to my hips if I’m on the bank and going to be bending over for very long but the included wading belt keeps them up and I’ve used them as wading pants a couple times in more shallow water. The legs are super long for me but you want some room around the knees anyways and the fish don’t care if your waders are a little baggy. The sock/stocking portion fits me perfectly.A quick tip, if you’re big like me your belly will create a “seal†when you pull them all the way on. Try and get most of the air out of the legs by pulling up the slack and running your hands up from your ankle to your thigh before pulling them all the way on. This will help keep your legs from looking like the Michelin man.Considering the price point and the extended sizing options, I think these are well worth the money. Compared to big name brands, these cost hundreds of dollars less and do the same thing. You won’t be worried about accidentally tearing them and then having to drop another $800 for a new pair.Keep in mind, these are my first official chest waders but I have worked in rain suits/hip waders quite a bit in the past and these seem well made. I’ve knelt on rocks on the bank quite a bit and I haven’t noticed and wear at all.They do get a little hot on warmer days if you stay out of the water for a while but it’s not unbearable by any means because they are breathable. They aren’t the most fashionable. They look like waders, and waders aren’t flattering for most people lol. They are relatively light weight and store in the included mesh bag no problem.

I have not had a chance to use them yet but they seem well constructed they fit perfectly though if you go by the size chart you need to go up a size then what they recommend. Based on the size chart I needed a small. I ordered the medium and they fit perfect

Frankly, I read a report about waders. It didn't matter if they are expensive or cheap, they all start to fail after a year or two. I'm tired of spending large sums of money on waders that leak after a few trips. I'm switching over to cheaper waders and be resigned to buy a new pair ever couple of years. These look good enough for a couple of years.

Great waders for me, I am a little heavy so the fit was right on a round the middle for the shoe size.

I got these waiters because of the moderate price and they seem like good quality. I took them to Alaska and fished for three days and waist deep water and they didn’t leak at all. I am normally a moderate large size but I got the medium size so the fit wouldn’t be baggy. This was perfect for me with three layers underneath for clothing and long underwear. Also, I wore two pair of heavy wool socks inside the booties with plenty of room. They were flexible enough for kneeling and squatting and no harm was caused by the sharp rocks I was on. I plan to use them for winter trout fishing in the Guadalupe River. Longevity is to be determined.

First time trying stocking foot waders and 8Fans were budget friendly. I fish daily, sometimes twice a day, so I put them to the test in NJ for surf saltwater fishing.Comfortable, great fit, and no leaks for about a month and a half. However the boot hooks broke after a few uses. Will submit a warranty claim after the bass move on past NJ.

No issues. These will be used for fishing.

On the fourth wearing the seam under the booty started to leak. Poor quality. Pay a bit more for a name you know

I am 6 ft and about 175 lb. My shoe size is 11. I ordered the extra large and although I could have went up one more size the extra large actually fits fairly well and I'll keep them. It remains to be seen how durable and waterproof they are but they are pretty dam good for the price regardless

Purchased three pairs, a pair each for my two grandchildren and a pair for myself. Only wore them once yet and no issues. They were sized as the measurements said and they look good and fit good. I don't think you could do any better for the price. Can't comment on durability but hopefully they hold up.

Awesome fit, feel and appearance. I'm now into my 4th season of fishing with these waders. No rips or leaks to date and normal wear and tear as expected based on my fishing trips. I'd definitely buy these again and highly recommend them to anyone. I bought these for my son to replace his rubber boot style vinyl waders last season and as he says, "night and day difference with comfort and feel"!!! I bought their boots, but the soles starting separating in the second season, so I bought Cabela's basic boot and all good now!!!
