Ok so I have enough money right now to get a new pair of waders and I can't really decide which ones to get. I'm kind of fighting between LaCross Super Tuffs, Bush Tuff II's, Cabelas Neoprenes, or possibly Hodgmans. What do you guys like? What are the good things about them? And what about negatives about any of them?
I walk in quite a bit but I wont beat the crap out of them. They MUST be warm since I will be hunting in temps into the teens at times in NW Iowa. And they have to hold up well while breaking ice.
Thanks in advance guys!

P.S. If it matters I'm 6'5 with a slimer frame.

Go with Hodgman or Cabelas Ultimag Waders. I still have my first pair of waders that are Hodgman and I still use them(even though they have a hole in the crotch that needs patched. Got a new pair of Hodgman's this last year and am completely satisfied. Might try their website, as they did have a closeout section but not sure if they do anymore.

I have a pair of Lacrosse Brush Tuff Extremes and they are an awesome wader. The do get warm so I can't wear them in mild weather-oh yea all our weather down here in TX is mild. I ordered a pair of Lacrosse Swampfox waders for the milder temps. I don't think you can go wrong with Lacrosse. I have a pair of Cabela's Warrior 1000's which have served me for over 5 years and are an excellent wader. Hope this helps.

I wore the Mack's wader last year and absolutely loved it. They have the "ankle fit" boot that I thought was the best thing since sliced bread! No more pulling out of your boots in that gumbo! I would definitely check them out.

I have the Lacrosse Brush Tuff II's and have been very happy with them for the past 3 seasons. They are holding up well with no real signs of wear.
I often find them too warm as they are fleece lined.

I have the Lacrosse Brush Tuff II's and they are the best waders I have ever owned!! I'm sure the Cabela's waders are good too but I have never owned them!
