hey all. I had been laying my family's 4 sets of waders on my pool table under a nice sheet for the past year but I have to pool table away and built a 4x8 reloading table. Now I have no place to lay the waders. No room in the house closets so how do you store yours. Hanging upside down? By the straps? Folded in a box? Or??


Thanks
 
Like Fred said......Do NOT fold......Hanging them by the boots is how I do it.....I also Armor All my wader boots in the off season.....Cracking of the rubber boot is one of the biggest culprits of leaking.

One other thing, if you hunt the Salton Sea area make sure you wash your boots off thoroughly before storing.....The mud down there saps the moisture out of rubber like no other.
 
Breathables go into a big cooler, goretex like fabrics are safe to fold. Take care not to fold at the joint between boot and fabric. Ozone is the killer of all things rubber so keeping them sealed up does wonders. Keeps the spiders out to
