If you find them, please let me know. Think they are gone gone gone, but made a fine product.

I saw some Red Ball waders this week at the Danner outlet store in Portland. There weren't many left and I don't remember this sizes available. There was quite a bit of LaCrosse products at the store. A worker at the store told me that LaCrosse is Danner's parent company.

Red Ball are awesome waders for the money. Don't tell anyone ...but, I think Kimmel's has them. I saw them there about a month ago.

Do yourself a favor and look into the Dan Baily fly weight waders. They have a neoprene foot that is attached to very lightweight and extremely durable material. They are a pleasure to get in and out of and I've had no problem with being cold in the winter. I wear a pair of polar fleece pants underneath and have never been cold in them. I can also walk through sticker bushes with no problems. In addition since they are so lightweight they are much more cool in the summer time. I think they offer two models...a heavier guide version and a standard. They are both excellent. A little pricy but you get what you pay for. Good luck!
