You're not going to be here. Hi, I'm Tom Rosenbauer, and I'd like to tell you about my new favorite pair of

0:19.4

waders, the silver label XT's. Silver label fabric has been around for a long time.

0:25.0

It's been slightly improved over the years,

0:28.0

but it still has that same real soft light weight feel that it's always had. It's a four layer fabric that's very

0:35.0

very durable, it breathes well. These waiters happen to have four layer on the

0:40.2

upper and then down here from the knee down the lower leg where you get a lot of

0:45.7

brush and stuff it's got an extra layer of fabric to give you protection.

1:25.0

If I can get that waiting boot over there or I have to hunch over and try to stretch to get that boot on.

1:31.0

The boot's already on. it's part of the waiter.

1:35.0

One of the great things about these silver-label XT's

1:38.0

is that you can change them into waste waiters almost instantly.

1:41.0

All you do is pop the suspenders, roll this down to wherever you want

1:49.0

them, wherever you feel comfortable wearing waste waiters, and you just reach back, grab the buckles, they're
