I was skeptical with this new company. Totally wrong. These waders are the “bomb”! I was hunting green heads in Arkansas in 15 degree weather. They were comfortable and insulated. Did there job well. Highly recommend!!

Best waders I’ve worn and quite possibly some of the greatest customer service and warranty I’ve worked with.

I’m a 5’3 woman, shoe size 7 1/2, and 120lbs. I’ve had a hard time finding breathable waders this season and finally came across these. I had previously purchased Tidewe and had to return because the body was exceptionally large. Was an avid SHE outdoors fan but I can’t find their breathable waders anywhere anymore. Thankfully these fit perfect. Still have enough room in the boot to wear a thicker sock and can comfortably wear a sweatshirt and thermals underneath. Hopefully they hold up well once season starts, but I’m incredibly happy to find something that fit me.

Can’t compare with the quality

Finally quality youth waders that fit a youth. I purchased (and returned) two other name brand youth waders that had terrible proportions and were extra baggy. Dive Bomb has actually properly proportional these for kids and youth without sacrificing quality and features. That's the other big difference. Most kids waders are basic and meant to only last a season. We'll be taking these to Alaska in December for King Ediders for the ultimate test.

I use these waders for winter steelhead and trout fishing in western NY. These waders are hands down the best I have ever had. From the jagged rocks on the bank of the Niagara to the small backwoods' tributaries hiking through brush and over downfall. These have been super quality for me, extremely tough and light weight. I would highly recommend these waders. I was between these and the Sitka waders, and I think that these are the winner for sure! The side handwarmer pockets actually zip closed unlike similar waders I've seen at this price. The DB customer service is great too!!

I just got these waders and I love them! I haven’t been able to put it through a full New England waterfowl season just yet but my initial thoughts are they are going to be great. For those wondering about sizing I am 6’3” and range from 205-208 lbs and I went with a regular XL. Boots are true to size too. Little baggy on the thigh area but plenty of room up top to layer for the cold New England winters.

If you live anywhere near the Dive bomb location. Same day repairs when needed. No sending off. Back in the marsh faster. The service is always good when ever stopping in.

Had to return and reorder the first pair for a size issue. Return process was seemless and quick. I would suggest that if any question exists in boot or body size you should size up. I did in the boot but not the body, resulting in the exchange. Features are top notch. After a lifetime of slipping shoulder straps, I'll never deal with that again. Interior and exterior pockets all make sense. Only thing I would change is the low wader belt loops. To low for a fall and a bit restrictive for sitting. I took the belt out of the loops and will wear it higher. As others have mentioned, it would be nice to have the ability to cinch the uppers a bit because I don't usually wear my belt in the blind. Took one long walk in the marsh in extreme heat and it was nice having the zipper to cool off. Overall, if these hold up, they will be well worth the money.

Haven’t gotten to try them out in the field yet! But love the look and fit. Can’t wait for the season to start so I can put them to the test!!

True to size, well built and very comfortable. The zipper was a little stiff but after a day or two it loosened up and operates smoothly now.

Great waders for the price, being comparable to Sitka and other higher end brands. Very comfortable and the zippers to close all of the external pockets are very nice to keep water out especially of the hand warmer pockets when the weather is cold. Comfortable boots, and a nice adjustable shoulder strap system for quick and easy adjustments when changing layers. Iv only used these for one season so far hunting puddle ducks in brushy marsh areas and divers out on the big water. A lot of climbing rocks and in rough terrain and so far no issues. Hopefully they hold up long term. They also include a patch kit which was a nice addition.

I've had these waders for 2 years, and hunted hard in buck brush swamps. At the end of the second year, I had a piece of taping on the boot come loose. I sent them back to Dive Bomb, and without question they sent me a new pair within 2 weeks. Great fit, durable, and GREAT customer service!

Most comfortable waders I’ve ever worn! My measurements from the size chart were spot on medium and I couldn’t sit down all the way. Got ahold of customer service and had a large size 3 days later! Had to pay return shipping but divebomb second day air shipped the new size at no cost to me, which is wayyy more than the $30 I paid to return ship. If in doubt on the size chart definitely size up on the body size and if you plan on wearing thick socks size up in the boots.

Waders are super comfortable and easy to put on. Boot fit is a little tight going on but once seated my foot feels snug and will not slip when walking thru mud. Build is solid and with the guarantee it’s a no brainer. Thank you guys for the great gear.

I purchased these at the beginning of this past season. I’m 6’2” and 215 lbs. Normally I find myself wearing pants with a 34” inseam. I originally ordered a size L and was not able to enter a seated position properly without binding in the knees. I switched to an XLT and kept this size. I am beyond glad I did. They were way better fitting than the LT for me. I had enough room to layer up underneath and not feel like a stuffed sausage. Nowadays, duck hunting has turned into a bit of a fashion sport and these waders look the part. Overall, these waders are worth every penny.

I have been Duck Hunting for over 40 years and I've owned a lot of different wader brands in my time. I normally hunt around 45 days a year in the Arkansas Delta and I expect a lot out of my waders. I have been using Banded waders for the last 10 years, Not Anymore!! I did my research and bought my pair of Dive Bombs before season started, and wanted to use them for most of the season before I posted a review. Everything about these waders are spot on. They are very comfortable, hand and zipper pockets are positioned just right, boots are sturdy and with 1200g very warm, the shoulder strap is made and designed better than any other brands, nice touch DB! These waders have a lifetime warranty and the price is great also. if you are looking for a pair of waders for next season take my word for it, look no further than Dive Bomb. Fred W.

First time out was today, so far so good! Came from Sitka to these for the price point and so far I actually like these better. I did have to go up one boot size from my Sitka waders to these, but they fit perfect and they’re very comfortable. We made a 3 1/2 hour sit this morning in the cold, and the rain, and shot 26 ducks, and I never got wet or cold. So far so good.

DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders: Waterproof Breathable Camo Zip Waders

The DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders are built for waterfowl hunters who demand elite performance from their waders and the most realistic concealment possible in the timber. Combining the proven function and durability of our DB Zip Waders with the unmatched realism of Bark camouflage, these duck hunting waders are designed for hunters who live in the woods. From flooded timber to hardwood bottoms, Bark delivers the natural tree-bark textures, deep earth tones, and heavy shadowing needed to blend into the environment and disappear when it matters most.

All components of the waterproof and breathable DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders have been specified from top to bottom to ensure years of hard use while maintaining excellent mobility. At the core of the design is Toray® FOUR-FLEX™ 4-layer upper and lower fabric, built to handle puncture, tear, seam strength, abrasion, wash, and colorfastness testing while maintaining comfort in the field. The high-density woven nylon 6 exterior is tough, flexible, and built for abuse, while the membrane system delivers a waterproof rating of 20,000mm and a breathability rating of 2,000 g/m². Whether you are busting brush, climbing into a blind, or breaking ice on a cold morning, these waders are built to perform season after season.

What separates Bark from traditional camouflage is its realism. Bark was not created overnight. Every detail, from the deep earth tones to the heavy shadows and contrast, was carefully developed to mimic the natural textures, colors, and visual depth of actual timber environments. Up close and at a distance, the pattern was designed to reflect the real world and break up the human silhouette when hugged up against a tree or standing in flooded woods. In the timber, concealment is everything. Birds pick apart unnatural shapes, movement, and contrast long before they commit, and Bark was built with one objective: make the hunter disappear.

Waterproof Zipper Technology

The DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders feature YKK® zippers throughout. The main zipper is a waterproof, smooth, and functional YKK AQUASEAL®. It allows the waders to go on and off quickly and easily while also making restroom stops far more convenient in the field. The dual exterior chest pockets are oversized for even the biggest iPhones and other essentials, and they use water-resistant YKK AquaGuard® zippers to help keep valuables dry and secure.

Dry Pockets To Store Everything

Fleece-lined handwarmer pockets are designed to keep your hands warm during winter hunting season and also double as convenient zippered storage for quick-access items like extra shotgun shells. These pockets are generously sized and strategically placed for comfortable hand resting, even in deeper water. Additional storage includes two interior pockets—one with a hidden magnetic closure and one with a vertical AquaGuard® zipper—ideal for licenses, hearing protection, chapstick, or other essentials you want close at hand.

Insulated And Easy To Take Off

The ultralight 1200G 3M Thinsulate™ insulated boots are durable, warm, and built for long days afoot. A foam midsole and molded footbed help keep you comfortable, while the proprietary tread pattern provides stability and sheds thick mud and muck. The built-in heel spur makes slipping the boots on and off easier, and the multiple-layer build with added toe texture helps deliver the toughness waterfowl hunters need.

Shoulder Straps That Allow Flexibility

For ease of use and functionality, the DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders feature a no-buckle G-hook shoulder strap system. The straps have enough grip to stay put on your shoulders while still offering the flexibility needed to remain agile and unrestricted in your movements. Their low-profile design also eliminates buckle interference when shouldering your shotgun.

The adjustable waist belt uses a high-quality Duraflex™ buckle built to last. It is firm enough for hanging carabiners or other attachments, while still offering some elasticity for mobility and easy adjustment to your preferred fit.

The Durability You Need For The Hunt

Waterfowl hunters are notorious gear abusers, and the DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders were built accordingly. Reinforced wear zones in the knees, shins, and seat provide the durability needed for busting brush, breaking ice, climbing in and out of boats and blinds, and spending long hours kneeling or sitting low from the eyes of wary birds. The reinforced ergonomic knee and shin padding keeps you comfortable while also protecting you when navigating through thick brush or frozen cover.

Protective boot cuffs cover the boot-to-wader seam, and the elastic base helps prevent unnecessary drag from loose material. Proprietary sewn, corrosion- and abrasion-free drain grommets line the bottom of the cuff to help water escape as you exit the water and climb into your boat or blind.

Where little things make a big difference, the DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders feature only the best in materials, components, and design. Built and tested by professional waterfowlers who spend more time in waders than anyone, no stone has been left unturned. Add in the confidence of Bark camouflage—engineered from the ground up to blend naturally into timber—and you have a pair of zip waders made to disappear in the woods while standing up to the rigors of real duck hunting.

Built To Disappear In The Timber

Premium Performance. Timber-Specific Concealment.

The DB Bark Zip Duck Hunting Waders combine the proven performance of our flagship zip waders with a purpose-built camouflage pattern made for hunters who live in the woods. The result is a premium pair of waterproof breathable camo waders built to keep you dry, comfortable, mobile, and concealed when the moment of truth arrives.
