The Grundéns Men’s Vector Stockingfoot Wader is a practical choice for anglers who want a wader that fits well, moves naturally, and holds up to real use. Stockingfoot waders are all about building the right system, pair them with the wading boots you trust, then layer up or down depending on the season. The Vector is built to stay comfortable through long wades, repeated casts, and full days in variable weather.
If you fish the Pacific Northwest, you know the range, cold mornings, wet brush, climbing banks, and walking rocky edges. This wader is designed for that kind of day. Keep your fit dialed, keep your boot pairing right, and you end up with a setup that feels stable and efficient instead of bulky.

Size Chart

Q: Is this a stockingfoot or bootfoot wader?
A: Stockingfoot. You wear it with separate wading boots, which lets you choose the traction and support you want for your specific water.
Q: What boots should I pair with the Vector Stockingfoot Wader?
A: Any quality wading boot that fits comfortably over neoprene booties. The key is correct boot sizing: boots that are too tight increase wear on the booties and reduce warmth; boots that are too loose can cause heel slip and hot spots. For better guidance, see our Boot Guide below.
