Sizing is essential when purchasing fishing gear such as waders, as it guarantees your comfort and also increases the durability of your clothing, provided that you get the right size. It is always a good idea to refer to the sizing chart offered by the manufacturer, but here are some ideas on how to take your measurements correctly when you purchase a new pair.
First, take out the measuring tape. Now, measure your chest, hips, and waist. Note down the largest of the three in inches. That's essential for getting a size that fits, as the waders have to be able to accommodate the largest part of your body, regardless of which one it is.
Next, you need to measure the inseam, which should be measured from the crotch to the floor. Last, but not least, you must know your shoe size for the booties, to avoid unpleasant situations when everything fits, minus your footwear size.
