Drake Emperor Breathable Wader with Tear-Away Liner - Realtree MAX5

SKU: DW-Wader-MAX5

$389.99

PLEASE READ: UPDATE, August '23: We have received our NEW Emperor Sized Waders from Drake! To see them, back up and check the VANGUARD listing on our Wader page. Two Patterns, Max7 and Bottomland, and the two size choices that make them SPECIAL - a 4/5X and the PLUS model 6/7X. Drake did away with their tear-away liners, so we have Vanguards only in the uninsulated, breathable style. Plenty of Thinsulate in the boots, and lots of room to layer. A great 3-Season wader!

On this page, we have a couple pair left of the 2022 Tear Away styles, so check the drop menu below to see what's left here. THANKS!

FIT - these boots seem to run true to slightly small. From reading feedback about Drake's regular line, if you are concerned about boot fit, going up a size seems to be a good solution. Our customers are "more demanding" in many ways than Drake's small-sized customers, so we know you're concerned about this. The boots do tend to relax and fit better over time. MANY THANKS to DRAKE for making this custom run for the BigCamo.com crowd - we can't thank them enough!!

Due to size/weight, please note that every wader incurs an additional $12.00 non-refundable shipping charge. Air Shipping will definitely incur another surcharge above the dollar amount the checkout system calculates. We'll add this automatically, so please take note on Air Shipping. Thanks!
