Everything you need, nothing you don’t. The Backeddy Wader delivers the fit, finish, durability, and performance you’ve always wished for in a wader with a clean, efficient design. Two years in the making, this wader delivers unique, thoughtful solutions to complicated problems: Magnetic shoulder yoke attachments eliminate line-catching buckles while still giving you Skwala waders’ renowned ease when getting in and out. Removable knee pads give you cushion for close-quarters streambed creeping on wary trout. A pass-through kangaroo chest pocket provides shelter for chilly hands and features dual-sided zippers to prevent hang ups on oar-handles while rowing. An additional zippered drop top pocket holds your phone or other necessities. We added the popular side dump-pockets from our technical sun hoodies for quick, secure access to tippet, floatant, split shot, indicators, or other small items. Of course, the Backeddy Wader comes with our unique gravel gaiters, incredibly comfortable shoulder yoke system, and the comfort, durability, and quality you expect from Skwala. Wrap all these fishy features with the same bomber 4-layer, breathable waterproof fabric as our RS, and you’ve got the wader you’ve been waiting for.
Magnetic, buckle-free, detachable shoulder straps for ease and comfort getting in and out.
Discrete, dual side dump pockets for easy-access storage of fly pucks, floatant, tippet, bear spray, beverages, and other fishing accessories.
A pass-through kangaroo chest pocket keeps hands warm and zips closed to prevent hang ups when rowing. Additional drop top pocket for smaller fly fishing accessories.
Removable foam knee pads for comfort when creeping up on wary fish.

"Just finished a three day wade/float trip on the Henry’s Fork in Idaho and wore these for the first time - they were great both wading and sitting in the drift boat. The side pockets are terrific and used those for lots of different things. I am really happy with these after the first use."
"Truly impressed with the Backeddy Waders! I love everything about them, including the color. They feel both tough and remarkably lightweight, offering excellent freedom of movement. The pockets are perfectly sized and placed right where you need them, and the suspenders with the quick-release system are super comfortable and well thought out. The only unexpected detail is the sizing: they run a bit large and long. I ordered a size XL and found it slightly roomy for my measurements (the neoprene booties fit perfectly). Overall, top-tier waders that I highly recommend!"
"Love these. Great packed array and the knee pads are a great addition."
"Great fit, very comfortable when climbing steep banks. Love the drop pockets and unique shoulder strap attachments."
"Awesome! This pair was for my son and he loves them. I will be getting myself a pair for next season. Thank you!"
"I have not tried this out yet, but look forward to the adventures. They look to be well made with a lot of features. Can’t wait to see how they do."
"Love these waders! Booties are fantastic. Seem likely to be more durable than waders I’ve had in the past…. Fit is comfortable and I really like the shoulder straps. I’m 6’2” 210#. And the large 12-14 fit perfect. đź‘Ťđź‘Ťđź‘Ť"
"My first breathable waders after 30+ years of neoprene. Couldn’t be happier with these waders. Very happy with the fit, to include the booty. The material is more to my liking than those of other manufacturers, and I really appreciate the shoulder straps, their adjustability and ease of use. I found that I really like the knee pads and the cuff style gravel guards. The waist belt is held in place by three belt loops and is very convenient for when you either need to pull the waders down or completely off; no worries of losing or misplacing the belt. I have come to be fond of the color, though it does show dirt and/or grass marks easily. Not sure if I can remove the grass marks at this point without affecting the the exterior treatment. 5 stars for me."
"The fit is great, I love the magnetic suspenders, knee pads, and the gravel guards."
"Great set of waders. Fit very well and leave room for flexibility and movement. Well thought out and designed. The harness system is very comfortable and easy to use and adjust. These waders are built well and do not have areas that could snag on bushes/branches as you hike to the river."
