Built for anglers who spend more time in their waders than out of them, the Skwala RS Zip Front Wader sets a new benchmark for durability, comfort, and mobility in modern fly fishing waders. Designed from the ground up with serious anglers in mind, the RS Wader reimagines traditional wader construction with innovative features like a buckle-less shoulder harness, integrated lumbar-support belt, and ergonomic seam design for unmatched comfort during long days on the water.
From hiking into remote trout streams to scrambling across slick canyon boulders and fishing deep runs all day, these premium zip-front waders deliver reliable waterproof protection, breathable performance, and the freedom of movement anglers need to stay focused on the fish.
The RS Collection was engineered for anglers who fish hard through every season. Skwala blends advanced materials with thoughtful design to create waders that provide superior durability without sacrificing mobility or comfort.
A heat-set, anatomically patterned shoulder yoke evenly distributes weight across the upper body, while the buckle-less G-hook harness system reduces bulk and eliminates pressure points. The integrated lumbar-support wading belt improves stability and support when navigating strong currents, uneven river bottoms, or steep trails.
Innovative fourchette leg seams increase articulation and mobility, allowing anglers to climb, hike, kneel, and wade naturally without restriction.
The RS Wader is built with a 4-layer waterproof and breathable laminate combined with an ultra-dense 100% polyester microfiber face textile for exceptional durability. This advanced textile package delivers excellent resistance to abrasion, punctures, and tears while maintaining breathable comfort during active fishing.
An anti-microbial interior scrim treatment helps prevent odor and mildew buildup, making these waders ideal for anglers who spend long days or multiple trips in their gear.
A waterproof YKK® Aquaseal® center front zipper makes getting in and out of your waders easier than ever while providing additional ventilation and convenience on long fishing days.
The torso includes two zippered fleece-lined handwarmer pockets for cold mornings and two stretch-woven exterior storage pockets for small gear like fly boxes, leaders, or tippet spools.
The RS Wader features anatomically patterned 4mm neoprene stockingfoot booties designed for all-day comfort inside modern wading boots. Fully glued and taped construction improves durability, while an abrasion-resistant sole panel reinforced with Spandura® yarns helps protect against wear during hikes and rocky riverbanks.
The antimicrobial interior lining helps reduce bacteria and odor buildup over time.
