GUIDE: GARRETT SULLIVAN /
Kanektok River, Alaska
Wader Technologies Getting better every year means more comfort and more choices for you. Our GORE-TEX® waders utilize 5-layer fabric to provide durability in high abrasion areas and a lighter, yet extremely strong, 3-layer fabric for your body’s pivot point areas. Along with our Bozeman made GORE-TEX ® fabric waders, 2009 welcomes an updated QuadraLam™ Technology that now features Toray® waterproof fabric – found in our Freestone® and Blackfoot™ waders. And every wader we offer, at every price point, is built to hike, kneel, sit or cast for years to come. Simms has been using GORE-TEX® fabrics in waders since 1993 when we introduced waterproof/breathable waders to the market. Since that time, innovation of fabric technologies has merged the highest durability with the most breathable and lightweight performance in wader fabrics. GORE-TEX® Pro Shell fabrics make our Guide series waders the most durable, breathable and comfortable fishing waders available. GORE-TEX® Performance Shell fabric is the tried and true standard that provides breathable comfort and durably waterproof protection for a wide range of fishing conditions
