Simms Flyweight Packable Waders

Simms Flyweight Packable Waders — Waterproof, Breathable, and Built to Travel

When your fishing calendar includes road trips, fly-in missions, and spontaneous after-work sessions, bulky gear is the first thing to get left behind. The Simms Flyweight Packable Wader solves that problem by delivering the waterproof breathability of full-feature waders in a lightweight, self-stowing design that’s ready to travel at a moment’s notice.

Built for anglers who move fast and pack light, these stockingfoot waders blend smart material placement with true on-water performance. From the waist down, you get Toray® QuadraLam™ 4-layer waterproof breathable laminate—a rugged lower designed to handle brush, rock, gravel bars, and repeated kneeling. Up top, a lightweight Toray® 2.5-layer upper maintains dependable waterproofing while maximizing packability and comfort, making it ideal for warm-weather adventures or as a “just-in-case” wader that lives in your truck, boat, or carry-on.

The innovative suspender system adds true versatility, allowing you to convert quickly between chest-high protection and a waist-high configuration—perfect for shallow wades, wet-wading conditions, or when you want extra ventilation on the hike in. And when the day’s done, the Flyweight Packable Wader stows into its own chest pocket for compact storage that won’t hijack your pack space.

Finish it off with embossed 1mm neoprene stockingfeet designed to stay light, pack small, and pair comfortably with a full range of wading boots and footwear, and you’ve got a travel-first wader that doesn’t compromise where it counts.
