Emergency wader repairs
« on: October 12, 2014, 09:52:03 AM »
So I was hanging up my waders after a great hunt yesterday and I step on the female end of one of my shoulder straps and cracked it. Besides tapeing it every time does anybody have any advice on how to fix them without buying new waders?

You can buy new strap buckles. Any place with camping/backpacking gear normally carries them.

Zip ties work well to until you can get the buckle replaced.
