Treat both waders and boots as disposable I'm afraid....
Totally agree
Seems to me that breathables are really designed for fresh water and have been adopted for our saltwater Bassing because of the need to be quite mobile.They then are moaned about because they are less than totally waterproof over time.
Don't know why someone doesn't design something specifically for Saltwater (and mobility ) , Someone will eventually - and probably make a lot of money.
OR - maybe that would kill 'The Golden Goose' ?
Seems to me also that leaking problems occur on the whole range available irrespective of price.
Products are available to solve leaking problems quite successfully however not to be considered permanent.

Waders leaking.
Both stocking feet on my Vision Heavy Havu waders are leaking now, after at least two years use. I put up with a soggy left foot since the back...

Taking the above into consideration I'd advise getting something around £100.00 - £125.00 from a reputable angling brand and live with possible disappointment - can always fix - before you get your next set :BigGrin:
I have scierra ones :barefoot: 2 seasons now and I plugged them up with aqua seal etc mentioned in the thread above (DorsetDan and WetWeatherWarrior - give golden advise here!).
I am happy with them as Ive never got anymore than damp upper thighs and for me ,most importantly, never wet feet!
Goodluck
Before you get to wading boots - I have cheap secondhand walking boots (from a leading bidding site) with supertrax studs (from best grip.com - other options are available).
