Swiftcurrent Traverse Zip Front Waders - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"These waders strike the perfect balance between durability and comfort. The waterproof YKK® front zipper makes gearing up a breeze, and the articulated legs and gusseted crotch give me full mobility when wading through tricky waters. I appreciate the smart pocket design—plenty of room for fly boxes, tools, and essentials. Plus, the low-bulk booties fit like a sock, keeping my feet comfortable for all-day wear. Whether I’m navigating rocky riverbeds or trekking to a remote fishing spot, these waders perform without compromise."

Built for anglers who demand performance and durability, the Patagonia Swiftcurrent® Traverse Zip-Front Waders are designed to keep us comfortable in the water season after season. Engineered with an H2No® Performance Standard 4-layer shell, these waders offer waterproof breathability that keeps us dry without sacrificing mobility. The gusseted crotch, articulated seat, and streamlined seam design allow for easy movement, whether we’re casting, climbing riverbanks, or navigating slippery rocks.

The intuitive zip-front design makes getting in and out effortless, while the chest-to-waist conversion adds versatility for changing conditions. With multiple storage pockets, including zippered stretch stash pockets and an internal drop-in organizer, our gear stays accessible and secure. Heavy-duty scuff guards at the ankles boost durability, and the anatomical booties ensure a comfortable, low-bulk fit. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory with 100% recycled materials, these waders are as responsible as they are reliable.
