Innovative Booties
Warm and dry feet are happy feet and now anglers can choose between two Patagonia bootie innovations to keep their dogs from barking. The expedition and midweight styles feature anatomical Yulex booties made from the same neoprene-free natural/synthetic rubber compound used in Patagonia wetsuits; the packable and pants styles utilize the proven and durable seamless bootie technology.
Recycled Materials
When it comes to innovating advanced textiles, Patagonia believes in reduced impact on the environment is a critical marker of progress. That's why they’re proud to say that all Swiftcurrent waders include at least 70% recycled face fabric while sacrificing nothing in performance. Patagonia doesn’t do it because it's trendy, fashionable or cheaper, but because protecting our home planet demands it.
Single-Seam Construction
Patagonia has used single-seam construction for years to route critical seams away from areas of high wear. But the new, more supple fabrics in the Swiftcurrent line features a unique, wraparound baseball seam," which brings articulation to the legs with a simpler patterning to create a more athletic, natural fit that moves better in and out of the water.
Advanced Feature Sets
Each wader is packed with features relative to its end use. But all the waders share refined on-water performance and functionality with Lightweight Black Hole fabric scuff guards and trims; updated EZ-Lock suspender systems that allow for a custom, secure fit in seconds; and our new Secure Stretch wading belt that provides a solid closure and is burly enough to support a wading staff, bear spray or net.
