L.L. Bean Flyweight II chest waders

Hey Terrence what do they weigh? Guess Im used to seeing my legs turn blue

Not listed on the site. I'll weigh them and post as soon as I get them. I ordered the Emerger wading pants as well to compare and contrast.

thanks Terrence most of the light ones end up around two pounds ( mine are ) Ived never carried any backpacking. If its sunny and the wind aint blowin to bad I just wade in shorts and trail shoes you get used to the cold after a while

Got two pairs of waders today to try on

LL Bean Flyweight II Stocking-Foot Waders – size XL – item # TC241533 – 1002g, including wading belt
– not true-to-size, order one size smaller
– way too much room in them, but that could be due to one size too big
– material is nice and light and moves easy
– thin enough they may tear or wear out sooner than you'd expect

LL Bean Breathable Emerger Waist-High Stocking-Foot Waders – size L – item # TA215616 – 825g, including wading belt
– true-to-size
– very comfortable
– good range of motion
– material feels substantial enough to stand up to regular use

At $79 for either of these, it's a slam dunk on the money side for the quality you get.

So my xl chest waders field and stream from Dicks at 32.6oz / 924g are not that bad weight wise although I doubt that I would pack them for very much distance.
