Designed for anglers who venture farther and fish longer, the Skwala Carbon Wader delivers lightweight performance, exceptional mobility, and dependable waterproof protection for demanding fly fishing environments. Built for travel, backcountry exploration, and long days on the water, the Carbon Wader combines cutting-edge materials with a minimalist design that reduces bulk without sacrificing durability.
Whether you’re hiking deep into remote trout water, navigating canyon streams, or traveling across continents in search of fish, the Carbon Wader provides breathable comfort, flexible mobility, and reliable waterproof protection to keep you focused on the pursuit.
The Carbon Collection was developed for anglers whose fishing takes them beyond the easy access points. With a streamlined design and athletic fit, the Carbon Wader feels more like a technical outdoor pant than traditional waders.
A buckle-less, load-distributing shoulder harness uses concealed G-hooks and a heat-set, anatomically patterned shoulder yoke to evenly distribute weight while eliminating pressure points. The result is a clean, low-profile fit that stays comfortable during long hikes and extended days on the water.
An innovative magnetic drop-top system allows anglers to quickly convert the waders from chest-high to waist-high, providing added ventilation and versatility when conditions change throughout the day.
An articulated fourchette leg seam design enhances natural movement and flexibility when climbing over rocks, hiking along riverbanks, or navigating uneven terrain. The athletic cut and ergonomic patterning create a streamlined fit that moves naturally with your body while reducing unnecessary bulk.
Whether you’re trekking up small mountain creeks or covering miles of river, the Carbon Wader is designed to move with you, not against you.
The Carbon Wader is built using a 4-layer waterproof and breathable laminate combined with a high-density 100% nylon woven face textile. This advanced textile package offers exceptional durability while remaining lightweight and breathable—ideal for active fishing in warmer conditions or during long hikes.
An anti-microbial interior scrim treatment helps prevent odor and mildew buildup, making these waders ideal for extended trips and multi-day adventures.
The Carbon Wader features anatomically patterned 4mm neoprene stockingfoot booties that provide excellent comfort and durability inside modern wading boots. Fully glued and taped construction ensures reliability, while an abrasion-resistant sole panel reinforced with Spandura® yarns improves longevity during hikes and rough terrain.
Interior neoprene is lined with antimicrobial jersey fabric to help reduce bacteria and odor buildup over time.
