Light weight, incredible build quality, SUPER impressed
Took a chance on these since they seem to be made by a new manufacturer and there was only 1 review posted so far. They just arrived in the mail and so far I am super impressed. The quality is amazing. The pockets are all well done, zippers close nicely.I am going to give them a water test in the pool this week and will update if for some reason they are leaking, but I do not think that is going to happen. I think for the price these are the best waders I have seen or tried on.Also, Korean made, not made in China. That quality shows.The construction feels very solid and durable but they do not feel heavy or bulky. Suspenders are slightly flexible but not so much that they sag under weight. They flex just enough that you can tug them over your head when buckling them. The boots and gravel guards are well done and the boots are just the right size for my size 10 foot.I am 5'9 ~190 lbs and the mediums fit me perfectly.

Well worth it
I was kinda worries about how these would fit. I’m a large guy. 6-4 and 350lbs . I bought The Xxxl pair of these waders and I fish In a trout stream almost every other weekend. Since I’ve got these I’ve been so happy with the comfort, size and the amount of storage they have. The price is right. I’ve worn the big name brands for years.. no more. I’m actually gonna buy a second pair just to rotate them in and out. Very happy customer....

Amazing waders, not even for the money, just period!
Ordered a pair of these for an alaska moose hunt on the southern coast. The price was right and the design looked durable from what I had read in the description. When I got them they seemed tougher than I thought they'd be for being "amazon specials" I've been through more waders duck hunting than I care to admit. They were so nice I sent the link to my dad for him to order them. For this trip I wanted something light, but tough as we were going to be living in them for 8 days. Well let me tell you, for 8 days I put them through the works. Miles of beaver dams, brush piles, thorn thickets, mud holes, creek bottoms, 2 back to back hurricanes, completely ruined the new wader boots I ordered to go with these... Both pair made it through the trip flawlessly. Not a pin hole. We talked about it at the end of every trip as we stripped our gear off. Bone dry. We still talk about it. The trip was 6 months ago and I'm just writing this review. I will definitely order a second pair as a backup for the next trip. Very impressed.6' 200lbs size 11. Ordered a large . Fit great with hunting clothing underneath. If not dressing warm underneath you might wanna go a medium if you want it to fit tighter, if you're my size of course.

Leaked after two trips
When I first bought these (in September 2020), I was happy. They seem well-constructed and functional. I took them on a steelhead trip in early October where I did quite a bit of hiking, and they were comfortable and dry. Didn't get too hot either. The second time I used them was for a quick trip without any hiking, and I thought I might have felt a bit of moisture in my foot, but it was hot and so I chalked it up to condensation. The third trip (in early November, cold water), it was clear that it wasn't condensation. My left foot was soaked. And because I'm outside the 30-day window for returns, I'm stuck with them? NOT OK.

leaked both on seams and weeped through the fabric itself.
leaked after a short 2 hours of waist deep fishing. i expected more from something in this price range. I will definitely never recommend thid company or its products. i probably stayed dry for half an hour.

All Good!
Great product, used it on the river this morning steelhead fishing...air temp was around 34 but the thickness of the waders made it comfortable in the river. It's active fishing so no use for the hand warmer pockets. The gravel guard is a bit tight where it attaches to the boots and I think that they should tighten the left side of the belt holder so that the belt doesn't end up behind you when you unfasten the belt. The inside pocket for your cell phone can be made a bit bigger for easier access to your phone.I am 5'10" and 185# with 9.5 size foot and 31" inseam... I bought the medium and it fit well but just a wee bit snug in the crotch. But I rather have this than a large with all the extra baggage.Overall I am very happy with this purchase. I walk a lot so lets hope these waders hold up!!!

Narrow bottom makes them useless for such well made quality product.
These are very well made. A big problem is the rock guard are not wide enough to easily go over boot. In my case with Korker rear entry not even close to going over boot. Calve section is too snug as well. I don't know if I can even use these. It's too bad for that design flaw because they are a perfect ten everywhere else in the design. Just useless really with the narrow bottom....

Bombproof
I fish a lot. Like nearly daily. About half of the year I'm in waders. I tend to gravitate towards low end, less expensive waders, and replace them yearly. Well, I'm tired of doing that. After doing some research, I saw these waders recommend on a fly fishing social media page. They seemed to be a middle of the road pricepoint for waders, but you're saving money by avoiding the top brand names (Orvis, Simms, etc).Granted, I've only used them twice, so I can't speak to long term use, but these things are absoluelty bombproof. They are comfortable, have a nice array of pockets, and aren't bulky. I have zero complaints with these and can only hope they hold up as long as they look like they should.FWIW, I'm 5'10" and 180 and the mediums are perfect.
