Price Paid:  $160.00

Summary:
I would recommend them for all but the hottest conditions

Weaknesses:
fit a bit tall

Customer Service:
Fantastic - Orvis knows how to treat customers very well

Body of Water:
delaware, west branch --

Summary:
As long as you use them as your cold water boots you will be very satisfied. It is clear the kind of workmanship that goes into them. Very high quality. If you are a size 9 and 5'6" like me order the size 8. The boots fit snug on me and they are still a little too tall. I just cut the straps shorter and re-fastened the velcro. Custom fit now. I told them about the non fit of the size but I doubt they changed anything.

Strengths:
Keeps you warm in the most brutal conditions. Durable also with extra padding on the knees. Velcro straps are very convenient.

Weaknesses:
Sizes listed are too tall. I could have pulled them up over my head. Don't wear them in the warm months, you'll sweat to death. Also a little pricey.

Customer Service:
I returned a leaky set with no trouble at all and no questions asked.

Summary:
The ultimate cold water waders. These really keep you warm and dry all day in those cold spots, like B.C. and Alaska. The handwarmer pockets are an added bonus as well. The only down fall is that they are too hot in warmer conditions.

Strengths:
Warmth, comfort, durability

Weaknesses:
Specialized use
