They evaluate hundreds of materials, build dozens of prototypes and spend seasons punishing them in the world’s most extreme conditions. The work is the guide, and Patagonia never tires of exploring, learning and improving.
Built with innovative materials, intuitive features and a refined fit, their Swiftcurrent® Waders are a better wader experience.

They’re made from recycled materials without intentionally added PFAS—toxic “forever chemicals.”
