Customer Feedback

"We have used Dryline waders for many years now and have found them to be hard wearing and leak free, the boots are the only ones we have ever used that do not split and have long lasting tread, the custom fit is very comfortable and we would recommend these waders highly . They are well worth paying a premium for."

"Biomarine has been purchasing waders from Dryline for some time.  I have found their service to be exemplary, and their products to be of good quality.  The suits are used in testing conditions, where sharp oyster shell is a constant hazard.  I would expect that the suits would perform very well indeed in more normal environments."

"Body waders to us is akin as boots to a farmer. They have to perform. Being a land based salmon farm of concrete construction, the body waders take a lot of wear and sometimes even tear. They are in constant use up to 8 hours/day, and for them to perform they have to be good. We have tried many brands over the years and finally settled on DryLINE.
In the earlier days we just used the basic body wader. These lasted about 2 years with a new set of gumboots attached after 12 months – we then proceeded to add Armatek from the waist to where the gumboot is joined. This extended the life of the wader part to 3 ½ years with typically 2 – 3 changes of new gumboots. In 2004 when purchasing new replacements we changed again to “Xtreme” no Armatek protection and changed also to the Blundstone gumboot. Now in 2007 new gumboots will be needed but the waders are showing very little sign of wear and should do at least another 2 ½ years.
All our waders are 7mm and have never leaked (unless we have severely damaged them ourselves).
For service and repairs Dryline are prompt and obliging – we don’t need to send them back because the jobs done once properly.
I would recommend DryLINE to anyone. The price for a high quality product that that lasts for 5 odd years under our extreme use is money well spent."

"Fish & Game North Canterbury staff have used Dryline waders for more than ten years and found them to be both comfortable and durable.  From manning fish traps in frigid mountain streams to running a salmon hatchery, the waders are subject to extreme wear and tear and yet still deliver years of service before needing replacement."

Having grown up in New Zealand conditions, every trip I go on I pack for extremes. My Wader Store Chest Waders are essential when I head out to go for a fish, and give me great comfort for all season fishing.

As an international guide I get to see a lot of products from a lot of different countries. It pleases me no end that my home country of New Zealand produces products that can compete on quality in a world market.
Keep it up!

I find the 3mm Neoprene waders terrific for both winter/spring at Taupo and lake fishing at Miena in Tasmania. They keep me warm and dry on the boat anr are not too heavy when tramping the river, and they float!
