Tomo-1 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Hi all, I am into my second season fowling and have managed to get away (mostly!) with wearing waterproof trousers and a pair of Muckboots so far. As I have become more confident and adventurous it is time to get some waders. My question is: are there any waders out there that have insulated soles/warm boots like the Muckboot? My Muckboots have been awesome, I have never had cold or wet feet in them. Over the years I have had various types of waders for fishing and have found the attached boots very basic and cold, even with thick specialist socks. If Muckboot made waders I would be first in line to buy some! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panoma1 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 They used to make them......I don't think they do any longer? Have you thought of investigating (internet search) the viability of having some waders made using muckboots as the boot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisThePelvis Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 If you buy the separate waders and boots a lot more choices are available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo-1 Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I have searched the web but have not found any Muckboot waders. If anyone knows of such a thing then a link would be great. If not a recommendation would also be great.I have not considered your suggestion panoma1, It's a good one, I will investigate. Thanks.

panoma1 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 The best warm waders are sourced in the USA.....I have La Crosse, 1000 thinsulate waist waders...fantastic! But now is not the time to buy with the poor currency exchange rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackpowder Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I have ended up with stocking foot waders and seperate boots for salmon angling. They are a young man's boot and I am not a young man. Its fine putting them on in a nice dry fishing hut but hopping about on a wet and windy morning at a car boot is not a pleasant way to start the day. Fine when you are younger but when you find your arms have shrunk or your legs have stretched its a nightmare. Neoprene might be you answer as they are warmer than most breathable fabrics.

But now is not the time to buy with the poor currency exchange rate OP will have cold feet because of Brexit! Contact Clegg and Farron, they are both in desperate need of new material. This could be just what they're looking for! Edited January 18, 2017 by Danger-Mouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saltings Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) cabelas dry plus for me cannot fault them warm boot and breathable for those long walks may pay to have a look as their end of season are discounted so could work out good despite exchange rate Edited January 18, 2017 by Saltings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anser2 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 The £\$ rate was £1.40 ish ( it has small variations ) just before the start of the Brexit ( Not long before that it was £1.70 ) but fell to £1.20 ish the next day and stayed at that level since . The price of USA waders have been hit by a double wammy, the cost of oil ( they are made of an oil based material and the sharp drop in the exchange rate. So to suggest Brexit has had no effect on the £\$ rate is pure loony leavers rubbish. But this is not the place for Brexit Debates. I have get a of pair of Diwa nylon waders , cost just under £50 and still going strong 5 seasons later with no leaks. The only trouble for me is as with all waders is they are far too warm to wear in comfort in all but the coldest weather. But if you have cold feet problems get a pair of Bama sockets and make sure your waders foot size are a couple of sizes too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another remoaner clutching at straws to try to persuade people "we was right" Edited January 19, 2017 by panoma1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anser2 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 As I already said this is not the place for a Brexit debate , I just answered an untruth you brought up. Just read the FT index and the reasons behind my statment will be clear. I will say no more in this wildfowling forum about the subject. Off Topic is the place for this stuff.

figgy Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 If you want warm check the cabelas waders out. I have the big man version and should have bought the normal ones as big in USA is different to U.K. definition of Big the boots have lots of thinsulate and keep you toasty warm when sat. You will cook like a boil in the bag ready meal if you need to walk far in them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waist waders are my choice as dont have a need to float about with my nipples on the water line ! Also dont have to strip half naked to have a pee !!!! If you sort it out befour you can get a friend who is holiding in the USA to have them delivered to their hotel or appartment and they bring them home in suitcase as their personel usage = no taxes !!!!
