After updating the design of our Kennebec waders, we sent them into the field for extensive testing by fly fishing guides and other serious anglers. The conclusion was nearly unanimous: these are the best waders we've ever made. Testing in our lab reveals Super Seam technology to be 50% stronger than the seams of our nearest competitor's waders. And they're packed with features to help your fishing be more successful.

Good waders but a little small
I’ve worn them once for some Fall fishing. Good quality but do run a little small.

So far so good
So far so good. I have worn my waders 5-6 times. They are comfortable, and do not leak, yet.

Very well designed wader for great price
This is my first pair of waders I bought for myself. I had been borrowing some made in the 90’s from a friend and the improvement in the technology and fit are exponential. These things are well made, thoughtful design, and made of high quality materials. I would highly recommend and would buy again.

Happy again
I have had 3 waders from LLBean over the years and have been very happy with them. Even with this I bought a pair of Simms waders thinking I would be even more pleased. Guess what? The Simms waders fit poorly and were hard to get off. I returned the Simms and got the good old Kennebec and couldn't be happier. The fit is great and they are comfortable. The velcro waist belt tops it off.

Feet run small
I wear an 11.5 or 12 shoe and the neoprene footies on these waders are too small in the XL tall wader that should fit an 11-12. Hoping that they stretch out in time, but I am reminded of this every time I start walking.

1 Year Leak
Purchased for Christmas 2021. Started using them in March 2022. Used them yesterday (March 2023) and discovered a decent leak in the right leg. Not fun in 32 degree weather. I’d estimate I used them a total of around 20 times with one season of use. Very disappointed in the quality for the price.

Kennebec stockingfoot waders
I haven't used them since it is still winter but the waders appear to be well made and I look forward to using them in the Spring.

Fit a Hard to Fit
I ordered the Tall medium because for me (6' tall w/ size 9 shoe) the stockings were always so large they went way up, uncomfortably, in the boot. I have only worn them twice so I can't testify to their durability but their fit is very good. My guide even commented on how good they look. Let's hope they hold up.

Great Design Patch Kit Needs Work
I love these waders because the design is so well thought out. These are my second pair of L.L. waders after the first pair finally gave up the ghost due to too many leaks I could not locate after using for several seasons. I have bought waders from other suppliers. Waders always eventually leak, but these last the longest before starting to leak. My only complaint is with the complimentary patch kit. I removed the patch material from it's envelope to look at it and while putting back into the envelope the material came off the backing. This stuff is normally very hard to get off the backing but this came off so easily I didn't even know it was off until I couldn't get it back into the envelope. So, something is definitely wrong here. That material is now totally useless.

Sizing issue
I have always worn medium. The chart verified I should wear medium. The legs were perfect. I should have tried them on prior to leaving for my trip. I could barely get a thin polar fleece top tucked into the waders. I actually left them with the guide in case he had a client who needed a pair. I came home and put on the old pair and they fit so I’m assuming the cut was a slimmer profile on new version.

Kennebec stocking foot wader
Nice lightweight waders. Plenty of room in feet. There is a little extra wader in the leg part as there is no short size for a shorter person, who needs the medium size.

GREAT WADERS!
Great waders! Comfortable and hold up longer than the competition. I was especially impressed with the sales associate, John Doran, He was very polite and knowledgeable about L.L.Bean products and with his first hand experience with these waders and experience with other brands for comparison I was confident I made the right choice to buy these.

Wading review
I have only used a couple of times since receiving. I do like the convenient pocket on the front and the waders seemed to be sealed really well.

These waders are just what I needed when I clean out my beach in the lake. They are lighter than my old ones. They even fit better and are easier to put on and take off.

Sizing does not work.
No size fit my body well. The last pair of XL waders I bought from Bean fit perfectly. This pair of XL waders were too small. xxl were too large and too tall . Go figure.

Poor stitching on waist strap
The mid section band came unstitched on the second use. I’ll need to send them back, and assume that they will be fixed, but since they are still useable, have to wait till after salmon fly season.

Underwhelming quality
I will start this by saying I tend to put miles on waders. I fish often and travel much further on foot than the spot I pull up to in the car. Being in Pennsylvania and having to deal with a plethora of bushes/trees on these hikes does not do me any favors. that said, 10 months of having them I had all sorts of deficiencies with the seams and neoprene boots - NOT tears from rocks/bushes, but simple product quality lacking in my opinion. The seam on the inside of the knee split, the seam from the neoprene boot to the wader split, the seam on the heal of the neoprene boot opened up, and a couple other spots that led to me having to spend time with some aquaseal just to hope I can be dry my next time out. Was hoping Bean would give me at least a full year of worry-free wading, but to my surprise I'm wet in one spot or another each time I go out after fixing a certain area after the previous outing. If you don't put too many miles on your waders I'm sure you can make due with these, but these have simply let me down.

Leaking
The good:
For big guys these are the best fit waders out there. I tried many and these were the most comfortable ones. I have a big problem with large calf muscles and nothing would fit comfortably. These were very nice.
The bad:
Leaking after couple of outings. These waders are really nothing for a serious fisherman. If you want durability don’t bother. I also noticed that the neoprene foot is not always the size advertised. Since my first pair leaked and they had a somewhat tight fit for the neoprene foot. Second pair was more of a joke. One foot was bigger then the other and neither was the same as the first waders. I have them both so I was able to directly compare.
In conclusion these waders are not worth the money they are asking for them. This is more a $99 wader sold for 4.5 times more than they should be.
You go in thinking you are getting a good product for $450 plus tax (CAD) and by all means not expecting Simms quality but still these are just terrible.

Stocking foot waders sizing
Foot sizing should be available in all wader sizing….9-10 should be available in large waders…if you wear cold weather clothing and have a 9 foot you’re out of luck

Great value / fit / quality
My first pair of Kennebec waders lasted a very long time. The second pair developed a very small leak below the knees and were replaced by LL Bean. The replacement pair have a tighter fit. I previously would order king size but I have lost about 40 pounds, so the snugger fit is better. The neoprene booties are a good comfortable fit and well made. Suspender snaps are beefier on the new pair .... nice improvement....and they kept the belt setup the same. I find the belt tensioning design to be very simple best in class functionality.... just pull tight and press the hook / loop together and it’s firmly in place ....and there is plenty of “grab” so it doesn’t let go until you pull it apart. So easy you can adjust the belt in the dark. And there isn’t a “tag” end of the belt to get in the way or grab the fly line. Overall design and construction quality of these waders is great..... and for under $300 the value is good. I cannot imagine spending $500 or more for other brands when I can buy these from LL. If I live long enough to need another pair, this is what I would buy.
