    Default HORIZON Guide Breathable Waders

    After searching for a quality wader manufacturer, we are happy to release our own brand of waders.

    Zips on waders tend to give trouble after a while, and are difficult to repair or replace when they leak. These waders look a little like a simms inspired design... I do like them.

    had a Stealth ZIP wader for 3 or 4 years, never a leak.
    have a Simms now again, zips are great, not must have, as all my other waders where without zips.

    Have a Simms G4 for 4 years now and never had a leak, before that I had 2x Stealth Deluxe waders which never leaked either so you must've had some bad luck or a moerse nood? A zip is a must have for me!

    Each to his own. I have heard both good and bad reports from zip waders. I prefer to have no zip. Granted, I have never owned a zip wader, so cannot comment from personal experience, but from what I have heard, when the zip starts to leak... its overskadovers.

    I tried these on in the shop a while back (before they were officially released). Very nice waders with the most comfortable suspender system I have ever used.
    Nice looking product from Frontier who have lots of experience with waders and always stand behind their products 100%.
