Description

Wiggy's Lightweight Waders are thigh-high waterproof waders that slip over your boots for stream crossings. They are made for backcountry trekking, guiding, fishing, and anywhere you need to stay dry, then pack away.

  • Very light. Just 15 oz.
  • Packs tiny. A stuff sack is included for storage.
  • Waterproof build. Urethane-coated ripstop nylon upper, rubberized sole, and all seams taped.
  • Fits over boots. Wear them over any hiking or hunting boot.

What every Wiggy's has in common

One insulation. Everything we make.

Most bags stitch right through their insulation. Every seam is a cold spot. Wiggy's Lamilite is one continuous layer with nothing stitched through it. It breathes, keeps working when it gets damp, and dries fast.

  • For families: no cold spots, so everyone sleeps warm.
  • In the field: keeps insulating when it's wet.
  • For programs: in service for decades, not seasons.
  • At the edge of the map: rated to -60°F.
Why Lamilite works
Most bags: stitched throughEvery seam pinches the insulation flat. That's where the cold gets in.
