    Cabelas has many of thier branded waders in big sizes, but to figure out the size you'll need to go try them on.
    Good things come to those who bait.

    Here are the ones I use. I do a lot of wading in cold weather & am very satisfied with them. Insulated & pretty tough. Measure around your chest to get an idea of what size you will need but it would be better if you could try them on like GRIZZ says. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/te...614&hasJS=true

    Most waders are sized by shoe size, so go try some on and see what you think. - Roberta

    Stout I had to go up a shoe size, needed to make room for two pair of socks.

    Do not forget a good sharp knife and have it handy. If you stumble and fall you may have to cut them enough to get the water out and get them off. lol

    I got mine at bps where I could try them one. Found nothing anywhere close locally that fit. Still had to get a shoe size larger to fit the rest of me. Think about what kind of surfaces you'll be standing and walking on before you buy. Since I use mine more in small streams, got the felt soles so they will slip less on the rocks. A buddy has rubber soles and has a real problem keeping balance on slick spots and wears himself out catching himself all the time.
