Hello. I must comment as to the great solution I have gotten to one of my nightmares. I am a big guy and I am very difficult to fit with good waders...# 14EEE shoes (permanently injured left foot and ankle prevent me from getting into stockinfoot waders) and 6' 3" tall at 307lbs as to my shame I love to eat. That said, through these many wading years I have been forced to get "custom made waders" on 2 different occasions. I have had a good pair of brand XXXX guide model breathables for these past 3 years. They are now shot. I started looking, talking, and checking web sites this past late winter to find some good breathables to possibly allow me to not have to spend the $500/$600 plus for custom waders. I was about ready to make a post here asking for help, when I decided one last time to check out a Sponsor of this great Web Site- Fly Fish USA in Welches, OR. I touched base with John at Fly Fish USA. Wow, what a great experience for me. I had previously contacted 3 different suppliers of this excellent Brand of Waders. Was told by all three, "sorry, there's no hope for you here." Well, John dug deeper and extended himself to even contact the Manufacturer and indeed found that the very wide # 14 felt soled bootfoot breathables are available. The Manufacturer in MT sent me a pair of the unattached boots to try on for size through John's efforts to help me. Well, I have a pair on order from FFUSA. I must say that in this day and age of so much greed in our business world it is truly a delight to have found a Company and a man representing that Company that I can deal with. Lord, willing I will do much more business with these folks. I just feel compelled to tell all of you about my experience. I am very grateful for John and FFUSA. Tight lines to all, Stiver
