I have had these waders for about 2 months and I’ve decided to hang them up, forever. The design of these waders most definitely does not work for me. Unless you’re wearing long wool socks and long johns the seam where the boots meets the waders will rip your calves apart. The stitching grabs the hairs on my leg and pinches my skin far beyond comfort and has led to a few short ended hunts. The sleeves that come over the legs will fill with about 3 gallons of water and take a good minute to drain leaving you with 25 extra pounds on your ankle making mobility very challenging. The shell holder constantly allows shells to slip out into the water. The front waterproof zipper and phone holder are useless and fill with water near instantly. I would NOT recommend these to anyone who plans on walking, wading or any physical movement for that matter. But if you get out of the car and sit down they are quite comfortable.

“Water proof pockets” are not water proof but no water inside the actual wader. I honestly love these waders, very light weight. Don’t leave you winded walking into your hunting spot. Very warm. Like really really warm. I quit wearing my big coat and only wearing hoodie and wind breaker to hunt in with these waders. They come up to my armpits, I’m about 6’2 215lbs. It is my first season with them and so far it’s been great.

I’ve had the TIDEWE Breathable Chest Wader for over a year now, and I can confidently say they are the best investment I've made for my hunting trips! The 1600G insulation keeps me warm even in the coldest weather, while the 200G insulated liner adds extra comfort. The steel shank boots provide excellent support and protection, making treks through rough terrain a breeze.One of the standout features for me is the breathability of the material. I can comfortably wear them for hours without feeling hot or sweaty, which is a huge plus during long days in the field. The waterproofing is top-notch – I’ve waded through muddy waters and not once have I felt a drop inside my waders.After a year of use, they still look and function like they did on day one. No leaks, no wear and tear. I highly recommend the TIDEWE Chest Wader to anyone who loves outdoor adventures; you won't regret this purchase!

They look and feel great. But after the third hunt the leaks started. After about 5-6 hunts the knees tore and the real leaks started fast. Tidewe was great about returning but unfortunately this was my second pair of waders that didn’t last through a full season. Going to try gator next.

these waders appear to be well made and the sizing is accurate. Kepp in mind, I have not worn them in water yet, so hopefully they don't leak

I was very excited to get these waders as my neoprene ones were leaking in the seams. These seem to be a very high-quality build, and all the seems are very well sealed. They are also very light, which is excellent and makes not only getting into the blind, but in and out of the water, much more pleasant the pockets are well thought out and storage is more than adequate. The front zipper pockets and magnetic pocket are very well-positioned and I really liked having two different areas to store my gear. The belt seems to be just an afterthought and doesn’t seem necessary unless you’re carrying a lot of ammunition into the woods but is great accessory.Now on the boots, they are well-made and have an absolutely great sole on them with an aggressive grip that feels like it will last a long time. My main gripe is that the inside top of the boots is not padded where it meets the waders and gouges into the inside of my right and left calf as I walk. It is very painful and left bruising on both legs after my first hunt. I am thinking this might be just from being a little warped from the packaging and will update if they break in better but as of now these waders are going on the shelf.I will update in a month or so.Update: Tidewe has EXCELLENT cust service. They reached out and made things right. I highly reccomend them as they stood behind their product!

Great for the price, compared to the banded waders the insoles seem hard/cold. Pant cuff is too tight and holds water when you come out from wading. Takes a bit to drain

I haven't used the waders yet, but I was very positively surprised by the product quality and finishing, while unboxing my waders!They are much lighter and more comfortable than my previous neoprene waders. Functionality is right up there with several chest pockets, lined hand warmer and water proof (resistant?) inner pocket. The boots are super duty and and have aggressive sole threads. Shoe size (10) seems spot on in length but are very roomy otherwise. I'll need some thick wool socks, for sure.

I have used these about 20 hunts in the cold and even laying submerged in freezing water to the top of the waders for 4 plus hour periods and im very happy with them are they as warm as big name waders its questionable i belive them to be slightly less warm but these waders do not get picked or snag bushes or splinter bushes but they are loud you will not be sneaking up on ducks the boots seem to be a better quality than cabelas 1600g waders as I have got less than 10 hunts out of my last 2 pairs of cabelas waders before the boot ripped honestly i recommend these to the everyday got to go hunter but get a size or 2 bigger than what you normally get because the waders are tight around the stomach with winter clothes (i got size 9 ) and find them annoyingly tight and these don't stretch like neoprene.. this review probably looks like I'm putting them down but im not im being honest and comparing a cheaper set of waders to a 400 - 500$ pair of waders i belive these to be the bestter waders.. I will see in the upcoming months how they hold up but so far I'm very impressed the money you save getting these it's worth it to pull the trigger and buy a set ( if i have problems i will add another review

I was skeptical at first because I never heard of the brand tidewe but I took the risk and turns out these are best waders I have had. I’m 5’11 and 170lbs and wear a size 10 in regular shoes so I ordered the size 10 waders and they fit perfect not to tight or loose they give you enough room to move your feet around if you are wearing thick socks or regular socks. The material on these waders are high quality I would honestly compare them to a good pair of drake waders or a well known wader brand. They are very warm and comfortable and flexible. You can sit down and they feel like your wearing sweatpants they are that flexible. I would definitely buy these if you are looking for a good wader thats not to bulky and that will actually last you some time.

I've used waders four times so far. They have held up well and are incredibly warm. The boots are durable and the pockets are well made. They are a little baggy and bulky but I'm fine with that because they are so warm. The only negative I found is that you need to drain the legs before you get back in the boat or they will drain all over your deck because the legs have holes just above the knees that allow water into the outer part of the legs. They are visible in the pictures. I have yet to find the purpose of these holes.
