TOTALLY WATERPROOF AND HIGHLY BREATHABLE
THE First class waders must keep you dry. They must be waterproof so that reliable And prevent water from entering even when you stay in the water for a long time . However, when you fly fish, you are constantly moving and your body regulates the thermal balance by starting to sweat. In order to keep you dry from the inside, High-quality waders should also be breathable , so that sweat can escape as water vapor before condensation forms inside.
The heart of the ALPINE DIVER V3 is a fabric modern high performance 5 layers of Japanese production , which is not only absolutely waterproof , but also very breathable and which also has impressive values in terms of abrasion and tear resistance . The lower part is also made in a fabric particularly robust , because it is the area most exposed to wear. In the part superior , a little fabric lighter was chosen for optimize comfort of port and the freedom of movement . In terms of waterproofing and breathability, however, the two fabrics are identical.
THE most important technical properties and the key figures of the densely woven microfiber multilayer fabric:
- Waterproofing > 30,000 mm water column
- Breathability > 5,000 g/m²/24 hours
- Fabric weight in the lower part: approx. 310g/m²
- Fabric weight at chest: approx. 220g/m²
- High resistance to abrasion and tearing
WELDED SEAMS, OPTIMIZED CUTS
As with the previous model, The individual fabric sections are assembled with the proven fabric welding process without classic sewn seams . The fabric pieces to be assembled are welded together under pressure and hot according to a patented process . This process guarantees extremely durable and resistant connections without the fabric being pierced a thousand times with needle and thread.
The reasons for cut have also been slightly improved so that the waders now have a optimized fit , especially at the pelvis and hips, and are still more comfortable to wear . The sizes have also been slightly revised, although the ALPINE DIVER V3 is always based on European clothing sizes. In addition to standard sizes, other size combinations have been introduced so that they are now available for almost all sizes .
And last but not least, during the development process, emphasis was also placed on a modern, reduced and clear design . This is also underlined by the discreet and matching colour palette that separates the areas of the different fabrics. While the lower part is made of carbon, the upper part is coloured in orion blue.
TWO WADERS IN ONE
One of the reasons for the success of the ALPINE DIVER models so far has certainly been the clever strap system , which allows them to be worn both on the chest and on the waist. Ultimately, the ALPINE V3 is not only a chest wader and one wader pants in at the same time , but also everything in between. This is because the waders can be firmly locked at any height and then remain reliably in that position.
This modularity is particularly comfortable in summer when temperatures are high and when fishing in shallow waters. For the ALPINE DIVER V3 , this practical function has not only been adopted, but some parts have been made even more comfortable . For example, the attachments of The front clamps of the transport system are now even easier to open , as a practical fastening strip has been added to the tabs.
In addition, the dorsal part has been adjusted so that it still follows better every desired setting . In a few easy steps, you can adjust the height of your waders without having to open the straps or even remove them.
THE shoulder padding has also been improved . The neoprene padding is now fixed at the strap connection point but allows the front elastic straps to be adjusted over a wide range. The padding is in one piece and is designed to distribute weight nicely and evenly across your shoulders without the straps hurting your neck.
THE straps They themselves are of course adjustable in length and have a new closure who can be easily operated with one hand by sliding the two individual parts together. Once closed, the closure still holds very well and does not open inadvertently. Compared to classic click closures, these Magic Slider Closures are much less bulky and are therefore more comfortable to wear .
A elasticated waistband with options of adjustment on both sides allows you to adjust the top of the waders according to your needs, whether you wear them at chest level or as pants. A wide elastic wader belt with a wide and sturdy click closure also keeps waders in place.
There elastic belt and the wading belt not only significantly increase wearing comfort, but also reduce water penetration in the event of an accidental fall , thus contributing to greater safety when fishing.
INTEGRATED PROTECTION IN THE KNEE AREA
A foam padding in the knee area makes kneeling much more comfortable . Especially in highly visible conditions, clear water and wary fish, you will be successful if you bend down. The foam pad is generously sized and covers the entire knee area. It is inserted into a specially designed pocket and can also be removed.
With this knee pad, you will be tempted to kneel much more often in all possible places, because the cushioning properties of the insert mean that it is no longer uncomfortable even on sharp stones. Nevertheless, please take care of your waders. The fabric used in the lower part is particularly resistant, but still not indestructible .
IMPROVED FIT AND DURABILITY
Although it may not be obvious at first glance, a number of details have been optimized on the neoprene socks and gaiters , which should significantly improve comfort and durability.
Slippers made in 4mm neoprene thickness received a coating thicker which makes them even thicker more robust and abrasion resistant . A rubber coating in the form of a honeycomb pattern has also been applied to its sole , which strengthens again this particularly stressed area. At the same time, this reduces the slipping/friction of the neoprene booties in the wading shoes and thus prevents wear. The cut of the booties has been made a little more ergonomic . By optimizing the cut of the different neoprene parts, it is also possible to reduce the number and length of glued seams and to place them in the best possible way so that they are not in places subject to heavy wear and tear. Of course, all seams adhesive Neoprene socks of this model of waders are also protected by abrasion-resistant adhesive tape.
For the gaiters , of neoprene with a sturdy cover is also used. Compared to the previous model, however, it is now easier to put on the shoes . To further increase the durability of the gaiters, they are no longer simply cut off at the lower edge, but the edge was locked in a Heavy duty fabric hem . This prevents the gaiters from fraying prematurely.

In addition, they also have 2 pockets for equipment with water-repellent zippers , ideal for keeping your fishing gear dry and safe safety .
