Please tell me why all of you think that you need waders in the middle of the summer. Statistics from this past weekend:

Air Temperature: 87
Water Temperature: 65

Number of individuals “wet wading”: Just myself
Number of individuals in Gore-Tex waders: 24
Number of individuals in neoprene waders: 3

Christ people do you not sweat all day long? Am I the only one that thinks it completely asinine? Either I’ve completely missed the boat on this or Simms and Cloudveil (insert new high end wader company here) have really done a great job with their marketing campaigns. Please justify your position.
