Prime18 Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Hi guys I'm currently in the market for some waders for wildfowling, these (http://www.uttings.co.uk/p119345-snowbee-4mm-sft-neoprene-chest-bootfoot-waders-cleated-sole-olive-green-12086-01/#.V96oTpB4WrU ) sprung up and I must say I think they look good but does anyone use these or know what there like?

anser2 Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I use DIWA light weight waders at £50 and wear them about 80 days a year and get 3-4 seasons out of them sometimes a little more. Recon they are good value for the money and you do not sweat to much in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TONY R Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Im on greys G series breathables but will be buying bassboots next time, No idea what the snowbees wear like but me and neoprenes dont get on well breathables are so much better.

SuperGoose75 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Just a word of caution if you have not already purchased a pair' and that is to get a size bigger than your actual shoe size. I have two pairs of Snowbees for many years and I mde the mistake with the 1st pair of getting my actual shoe size. They really hurt my feet and i dont have broad feet or anything but even with thin socks they where a pain. I bought a camo pair a size bigger and they were perfect. I only used the first pair as backups and worn if the others got really wet. I;ve read of people buying really exspensive pairs and them only lasting a season or two.? I honestly dont know what they be doing with them.Ive spent yrs and countless flights in my Snowbees, Clambered through briars and over barb wire in them and yes i did need to patch them a few times but they have stood me well. I always hang mine up after flight which may add to their longevity.i am due a new pair and missy has ordered me a pair for my Birthday.if they are as good as my last pair i'l have no complaints.

Prime18 Posted October 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Cheers supergoose, I've got my pair now and am pleased with the quality and fit etc. I orderd the "FB" which stands for full bodied or as my mates say "fat bas***". Can't wait to get them muddy now and a fowling fellow I know had a pair of these neoprenes and he ripped them sliding down rocks on his **** but has orderd another pair so must be happy. Thanks everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
