What makes waterproof, breathable fabrics like GORE-TEX® or Toray® so unique is the porosity of the fabric - keeping the elements out while letting moisture that builds-up beneath the fabric escape. Regular washing will maintain your gear's original properties.
* Waders and rain gear should be dried after each use, both inside and out. Simms understands that certain situations do not allow for time to fully dry between uses. It is the expectation that this circumstance will contribute to a potential shorter lifespan.
* Breathable fabrics are porous in nature and can collect dirt, oils from the skin and other environmental substances. Regular cleaning of waders is a key contributor to their lifespan.
* Depending on the amount of days used, annual, bi-annual or tri-annual washing is recommended.
* Exposure to salt water or salt air requires special care: The waders must be rinsed thoroughly with fresh water and dried after each use.
* Most waterproof, breathable gear can be machine washed - please refer to the care instructions on the label for full details.
* Ask your Simms retailer for recomendations on re-treating for waterproofness: Typically they carry re-waterproofing treatments like NikWax.
* Here's some detailed tips on cleaning your gear

"Love these bibs. Bought them after being recommended them by my local fly shop who no longer carry’s their products."
— James W. (5/5)
"Super lightweight, very comfortable bibs. Fit is great, but runs a bit on the small size so size up if you want a looser fit."
— Karl R. (5/5)
"Bought these bibs as a secondary option since the producing I ordered and paid for were not delivered and unavailable after ordering. Manure as a captain and salmon fishing guide on the saltwater water in the PNW 150+ trips a season. Definitely keep you cool I rock boxers if that, under these in hot days and love the flexibility and breath ability great light wait and comfortable. . Cons- these absorb blood stains and look like a crime scene even after rinsing and washing off fish blood immediately. Not like a goretex or similar bib that repels water and blood and dirt easily and doesn’t show battle scars. Mine are best to hell already won’t be able to wear them and look professional next season so I guess buy another pair? Great bibs if you are not catching or cutting fish on the saltwater. Maybe fly fishing for bonefish once a yr or something like that."

"Used on aug 25 in northern ontario was in 60s most days and rain . they kept me dry . not made for cooler weather put on heavier pants and it was fine . I would recommend these bibs. True to size"
— Tim V. (5/5)
"Bibs are comfortable & sized properly. . an improvement would be having more pockets… particularly in the jacket."
— Jeff H. (5/5)
"Great suit for the summer time when it’s hot and humid. Stayed extremely dry all summer. Love it!"
— Justin S. (5/5)
"I have not put these to work yet however i can already tell they will be quite luxurious compared to my old grundens. Very soft nice material and very lightweight and compactable. I charter fish florida in the summer and guide hunts in alaska in the fall, so i do much traveling and compact gear is super nice. We will see if they hold up- but i have a feeling they will. Seem to be nice quality compared to my HH and grunden bibs in the past"
— Dustin (5/5)

— Steve N. (5/5)

— Scotty W. (5/5)
