ORVIS PRO ZIP BOOTFOOT WADER

The industry’s most durable breathable waders, now with a bootfoot of vulcanized rubber over 5mm neoprene with grid-fleece insulation for boat-bound anglers, guides, and the hearty souls that push through abysmally cold winter conditions. Twice as abrasion-resistant as comparable waders and with nearly 2x the puncture resistance thanks to an exclusive 100% CORDURA® fabric with four layers in the upper and five layers in the lower. In another exclusive partnership, the studdable Michelin® outsole provides best-in-class wet rubber traction. Orvis has even tested the TIZIP® MasterSeal zipper for more than 200 days to ensure failsafe waterproof performance alongside the zip wader’s easy on/off convenience. If you’re thinking these were designed specifically for those who require the height in season-after-season reliability, you’re definitely onto something. On the upper, there are included split, fleece-lined handwarmer pockets, two external storage pockets with YKK AquaGuard® coated zippers, and split Hypalon® daisy chain for tool docking. Inside are two internal storage pockets for fly boxes and accessories. Adjustable elastic suspenders with opposing buckles for waist-high conversion. The five-layer lower incorporates removable OrthoLite® X25 knee pads. The bootfoot sole also features the same BLOOM™ technology outsole/midsole as the PRO Wading Boots, which replaces petroleum-based foam with an algae-based formula and actually offsets 50 gallons of water waste per pair. Active Fit.
