Quick take
Lightweight 70D nylon chest waders with integral boots and reinforced seams for wade fishing.
This is a green bootfoot chest wader built from two layers of 70D nylon and PVC, with PVC boots attached. A waist belt and chest drawstring adjust the fit, and H-shaped shoulder straps close with quick-release buckles. A front pocket holds a phone, keys or a few lures. It suits anglers and waterfowl hunters who want a lightweight wader that packs down easily.
