Almost Identical Product Twice The Price
Updated 3 Nov 2021; One year of regular use and they I am now regularly getting very damp knees. It is not the seams, the material just seems to let water permeate it. I note they are now £49.99, I paid £33.99 last year and will not pay this price for a replacement pair. I have now bought a pair of Vass 600 for £50 - brilliant waders.Added 23 Oct 2020: The replacement waders arrived very promptly (excellent customer care) and I have now used them on 6 fishing sesssions - a total of about 20 hours in the water. The new pair are fine - no leaks at all - just some condensation when it is warm.Added 26 Sep 2020: I have to say that I cannot fault this company's customer service. They contacted me to tell me they would address the issue with my waders before I had contacted them (v. good - they must be reading the reviews). They are going to send me another pair of waders to try.I bought these to replace a pair of Michigan waders, which are currently unavailable. This pair of Michigan waders had started to let water through the material on one leg after only 10 months; the previous pair had lasted twice as long!These waders (at £33-40 depending on offers) are very similar to the Michigan waders (at £18) but twice the price! The boots and wader material are identical. The boots just have an additional 'pressing' around the top. The pockets are different; although, I have seen pictures of Night Cat (NC) waders with the same 'flap-type' pocket. The NC pockets looks and feels waterproof but at least one person has said it is not - maybe they did close the zip fully. The NC waders have a pull cord around the top, the top of the Michigan waders are elasticated. I prefer the elasticated top because the dangling strings are a bit of a nuisance. The belt attachement points are different and NC supply a proper canvas belt whereas the Michigan belt is made of the same material as the waders - perfectly adequate in my mind.Size-wise, I and 5ft 7" tall, of slight build with a 35" waste and generally wear size 9 shoes. I bought size 9 in both waders. The NC waders are more 'taylored' than the Michigan waders and fit me quite nicely. The Michigan waders were a looser fit, but this enabled me to wear thicker trousers in the winter. My thicker trousers should fit inside the NC waders, but the legs will be tighter - and I have skinny runners legs!I wore these to go fishing on the river yesterday and stayed very dry. I was in the water between knee and backside level for about 3hrs. The boots are flimsy, which means your feet get squashed by the water pressure once the water level gets to your thighs. This was the same with the Michigan waders.Overall, what I will buy next (because I am confident that they will end up leaking) will depend on how long these stay waterproof. If longevity is comparable, I will be switching back to Michigan waders.Update 21 Sep 2020; Spent 4 hours fishing in them today, only the second outing, and came home feeling rather damp. It is unlikely to be condensation because I was only damp from the top of the boot to the top of my thighs, which is as deep as I had gone in the water. I will give them another chance tomorrow, but if I am damp again, they are going back. Dropped from 4 to 2 stars.22 Sep 2020: I gave them another go. After anoother 3 hour fishing session in water up to the top of my thighs, my trousers were damp again, although this time the damp was patchy and not as bad as the day before.

Great buy.
The media could not be loaded. Can’t fault these for £39.99 nicely made comfortable fit.

Well made and Good value but sizing hit or miss
I normally take a size 11 so I ordered 'up' to a size 12. They were delivery same day and the boot size was perfect, however the body length, for me, was way too short, I am 6'2" and I couldn't move at all, not enough 'give' on the straps. On the plus side, for the money, these waders seemed well made and better than I expected. I then ordered the size 13 boot size, which was quite a bit larger in the foot but thick socks would sort that however, yet again the body length was way too short for me, you need to be able to bend, sit and raise a knee to climb - yet again I couldn't, Both pairs returned for refund, I intend to go to a local shop when its open and try them on there but suspect I'll be twice the price - shame!

Great Value & Performance
Night Cat Fishing Waders.Purchased for my dad these were on his Christmas list. He tells they are just what he was looking for in a pair of waders. I ordered one shoe size bigger than his normal size. They fit superb are are fully adjustable, the included belt is ideal for securing the waist.I would certainly recommended this product. 🎣

Great delivery
I have only just received the waders and therefore cannot give a Well informed review but on first inspection I am happy to give 3 stars . The waders arrived 1 day after ordering. The size and comfort of the boot is spot on which is great as a women with wide feet this is not always the case. The bib almost to my armpits I am 5ft 6inches. The quality of the material appears good in terms of waterproofness but can't imagine the waders will be warm. Overall on first impressions very pleased

Cheap and a tiny bit cheerful
After two hours of use I can tell you these things.... Water slowly seeps in, not through a hole just through the material so it can’t be patched. The front pocket leaks so you couldn’t put anything like a phone in it. The front pocket ripped at the end of the zip. The grip on the boots is terrible on wet rock. They’ll get a few tasks done but they are of terrible quality. But I guess that’s what you would expect for the cheap price tag.

3.5 Stars
I use this for when I do Pressure Washing jobs & I always seem to come home Wet still! These are literally designed for going through Water so maybe direct water is different but I got these to stay dry & so far that isn't the case. They have reduced how soaked I get & they look the part but maybe they're too thin because there's no way you should get wet feet in these surely
