DELTA Pro Zip GORE-TEX® Wader Reviews

Outstanding fit of both wader

Outstanding fit of both wader and boots. I measured as referenced on the Sitka website, then ordered and they came the perfect size. They are extremely well-made, comfortable and have excellent flexibility. The front zipper design makes them super easy to get in and out of quickly. Worth every penny. This is not a complete review, since I haven’t had the opportunity to hunt with them yet. I bought them for my upcoming deer hunt in December. I plan to use them extensively then. Stay safe and good luck out there!

Very disappointed

Bought these waders between 4 of us 3 pairs leaked around the boot called to get mine fixed they told me 8 weeks to the trash they go definitely way over priced for such a cheap product. Back to a cheaper brand atleast I got a season out of them

They fit good

I have not used them yet. I am generally between and medium and large. I went with the large/short. With a hoodie and jacket on the inside I still had a little room in the chest. I am a 9 1/2 shoe, the 10 fits nice and isn’t too difficult to get off. Im a 30” inseam and the fit is good. I like the straps, they don't appear to stretch. Excited to try them out.

First experience

Just got my first set of these and they lived up to the expectations. The fit and finish is perfect and the sizing was on point. I’ve yet to have a pair of waders fit my height and not bind in my knees when sitting. The Tall sizing is great.

Great waders

Like wearing waterproof bodysuit. Easy to get on and off and so light to move around.

Bomb Proof

The last version was amazing, and this version seems even better. The updated boot fits more true to size and is substantially lighter.

Wader Fit

The best waders

Perfect archery moose wader

Used 7 days in a row on a Yukon archery Moose hunt in September. Perfect waders for the hunt. Warm, easy on and off, light and most importantly dry.

At 5’9”, 160#, I went

At 5’9”, 160#, I went with a medium regular size 10. I’ve taken these waders out 1 time so far, through some swampy mud for teal season. They’re as tough as they say. My typical shoe is 10-11, but I’m narrow-footed. The size 9 may have been a better option to keep the boot fully secured to my foot. I am unsure about the new boots and think the Lacrosse boots on the previous iteration may have been a better combo. Other than this mild frustration, I think these will keep me going for may seasons to come.

Ordered a 12 XL and

Ordered a 12 XL and the legs were too short (crotch hung down too low). Sent them back for a 12 XLT and they fit great, it was a very simple process, they created a label and didn’t cost me anything. Haven’t hunted with them yet but very good quality and well made.

Great wader

Best wadter i've ever owned. Comfortable durable great warranty. This waiter has lasted me five seasons. . . With a few minor free warranty repairs.

Excellent

Best waders ever

GTX Waders

Excited about these waders. Fit true to size. Can’t wait to get in the duck hole with these.

Awesome Waders for Women

Being a woman hunter I was in the market for a pair of uninsulated waders. I decided to give these a try & I’m very glad I did. I usually wear an 8. 5 in women’s shoe/boot. I ordered an 8 & it fits fine with a heavier pair of socks.

Fits as described

See above

I was reluctant to pull

I was reluctant to pull the trigger in these due to the price l but have no regrets. I’ve used them for both waterfowl hunting and salmon fishing in Alaska. As long as you’re made layers are good you’ll be warm. The boots run very true to your sneaker size but are roomy enough for either regular or thick socks. I’m 5’ 8”, 30” inseam, 170 lbs with a 41” chest and went with a LS (Large short) based of the size chart and these fit great. My only dislike has been the belt but only because it’s a little finicky to adjust. That said, I was able to wear my 10mm bear gun with a OWB holster with no issues so it does a great job once you get it set. It won’t come loose. The pockets are not waterproof but unless you are chest deep in water everything in them is staying dry. Overall, these are extremely durable and are built to last. It’s worth the investment!

Great product

Like what you’ve done with the boots and knee pads. Can definitely tell the difference.

Best waders ever

Comfortable easy to get on and off - best purchase ever made.

It’s Sitka you can’t beat

Think they fit fine but won't know for sure until duck season when I get in the water

Delta pro Zip Gtx waders

The quality seems to be pretty good. I used the size selector on the website and it definitely feels quite big. Have not taken it out while layered up, do hard to tell yet. Also price is quite high, especially since there were un- expected tariffs i had to pay once the shipment arrived. All in all pretty happy with it.

Waders

First time buying a set a waders, they fit perfect and leaves room to layer up if needed. Excited to try them out this season.

Great quality

The movement is ridiculous. I weigh 222, 5-11 — XL 10 is what I purchased I wear a 10 in red wing Chelsea boot and those work boots fit a little snug until broke in hurt to break in even. I’m an 11-5 in vans lace up low tops. No stores to try on without driving 4 hours so figured I’d go heavy on detail. The XL 10’s fit great foot may be uncomfortable with thick sock until broke in but I like my boots tight in the muck.

Try on

Tight in the crotch area when kneeling on one knee. Hopefully there indestructible when I use them

Delta Pro Zip Waders

Love the design and the feel of these waders I will say the size charts do run a little small get at lease one size bigger in the chest and body boots fit great true to size

Shoulder strap connection

I love my zip front waders. I was surprised to see that the new version has the same shoulder strap connections that regularly come unhooked

Best waders ever

These are the warmest toughest waders I’ve ever been in Sitka did a great job designing these.

Pleasantly surprised and impressed

More Tall Sizes Please!

Where’s the 2XL and 3XL Talls! I’ve heard for years they were coming. Man you guys are missing out on a lot of tall country boys that like to eat now. We can’t fit in a XL Tall and I’m only 6’4 250 and the XXL regular makes it hard to sit down in a blind and stand up from a layout because they are too short. Guys a lot bigger than me are out there by the thousands dropping some waterfowl. Might think of tapping into that market share. Cheers

Bad ass

Waders are awesome.

5’11” 190 purchased the L11 and they fit like a glove! Haven’t hit the water yet but have little doubt these waders will knock it out of the park!!!

Awesome Waders!!

These waders are great. Bought a second pair for my backups, but not sure if I need them. My originals I have had for 3 seasons with no leaks. I just have never gotten 2 years out of a pair of breathable waders, until now. Sizes are dialed in as well.

Love the waders!

Super light weight and fit great. Most comfortable boots in a wader I've ever worn. However, haven't been able to hunt in them yet and only done preseason work. Not to mention, love the knee pads and the easy on-off boots. I went up a size in the boots, haven't had any trouble with one layer of socks, so I expect that it will be no problem to layer once those winter cold-snaps roll on through. Order yourself a pair!!!

Delta Zip Waders

I’ve been using the delta waders for the past 5yrs and I’ve put a ton of miles in it these waders hands down best waders on the market. I got a spot on the neoprene from the ice and so I decided to send them in but also buy a new pair and if these are better than the old style I’ll never have to buy waders again

Nothing compares to the Delta Pro Zip GTX wader

I've owned a few pairs of waders since I started duck hunting years ago. None of them compare to the Delta Pro Zip GTX's. Whether it's late season sub-zeo temps or early season in the 70’s, I've been comfortable in these waders for every hunt. I haven't had to worry about leaks either - even after dragging myself over sharp rocks, or walking to a blind through miles of deep woods. I would highly recommend these waders for anyone who wants to stay comfortable in the elements and stop worrying about purchasing new waders every 1-2 duck seasons.

Delta Pro Zip GTX waders stand up to every test

As an avid duck hunter, the Delta Pro Zip GTX waders stand up to every test I’ve thrown at them. From chasing late season greenheads in the shadows of the Tetons, divers on the rocky shores of Lake Superior, and screaming woodies in the Illinois River Bottoms, these waders perform time and time again. The lightweight Delta Pro Zip GTX feels like a part of you, unlike the heavy, baggy waders we’ve all worn. I know I can depend on them chasing early season teal in the marsh and breaking ice to go after migrators. I can always count on them to keep me dry, comfortable, and warm in any environment. They are adaptable to whatever the situation calls for. The incredible durability gives me peace of mind to focus on the hunt and not second guessing if I just felt water on my ankles

Well worth the investment

The Delta Pro Zip GTX Waders are exactly what comes to mind when I think of a reliable and versatile wader. Spending over 100 days a year wearing waders in rugged Wyoming country, I can say that these are well worth the investment. Whether I’m busting through ice late in the season, or battling the heat during off season prep work, I can rely on these waders to keep me comfortable in any situation. The Sitka Delta Pro Zip GTX Waders are the perfect tool for someone that needs gear they can trust.

The toughest, most reliable waders

The Delta PRO Zip GTX Waders are the toughest, most reliable waders I’ve ever stepped into. They fit like they’re custom-made, flex when I move, and stay bone-dry through the nastiest weather and terrain. Whether I’m busting ice or knee-deep in the swamp, I know I can count on them.

Way better than the last waders

Way more comfortable and lighter than the last ones. The pockets don't leak anymore as well

Hands Down the Most Comfortable and Reliable

The Delta PRO Zip GTX Wader is hands down the most comfortable and reliable piece of gear I’ve worn in the field. The fit is dialed—streamlined and easy to move in without sacrificing durability. Whether I’m busting through ice or knee-deep in the timber, I trust these waders to keep me dry, warm, and focused on the hunt. The new boot design feels lighter and more cushioned, and that front zipper is a game changer when you're layering up in the dark. These waders are built for the grind—tough enough for the worst conditions and comfortable enough to make you forget them.

A Complete Upgrade

The same wader I've depended on for years in the field but with a complete upgrade. The new boot is warmer and more comfortable for long stands up against the tree and the new fabric is more durable providing ease of mind when walking through the woods and climbing in and out of the boat.

Comfortable and Durable

Comfort and durability, two things that waterfowlers demand in their waders. The new Delta Pro Zip GTX is just that. I was comfortable in both warmer and colder temps. Able to break open holes with the knee and shin pads, they are tough yet breathable. The hand warmer pockets, which are often taken for granted, are positioned perfectly. If you’re not shooting or calling, your hands are typically in these pockets, making them a key comfort component. The new boot design is extremely comfortable for walk in hunts and make it easy to stand in the timber for hours.
