wading trousers for launching
So, now that i'm a sib owner i guess im going to be getting wet launching unless someone can recommend the best quality wading trousers in the world at the cheapest price ever .
Not much to ask then ? (oh and the need to make them in fat B***** size)
Thanks in advance

I have a pair of peak storm dry pants work brilliantly about £140 if memory serves but would have thought chest waders would be the cheapest but not the most comfortable

Seconded [emoji106] I have the tourlite pants and would also recommend the Peak cags as well.....cos together they look well smart. Some good prices on eBay so worth a look [emoji6] [emoji106]
