Waders in car?

Featured Replies

Can i store my waders in my car? I will be parked in a parking garage overnight and then probably an uncovered lot during the day, is it practical to keep my waders in my trunk? I love in south jersey and it will just be until thanksgiving, so the temperature shouldnt go above 70, it will more likely be around 50.

As long as they are out of the sun and its cold I dont think its going to be harm them.  Just dont do it in warm weather, particular with boot foot waders.  The rubber dry rots and cracks extremely fast.  Once that rubber degrades it very susceptible to cracking.

Most guys I know keep their waders in the car all season as long as they aren’t made of rubber. Wet waders will stink up the inside of an SUV. In the trunk shouldn’t be any problem

I have my waders in a cooler in my truck and it was fine after a year. I have another one that I am wearing often and I always bring that in home to hang it after rinsing it(I use that for salt-water as well as fresh water).

Good to know! It shouldnt be hot so i will keep them in my trunk. They are the cheap waders made of rubber so i will be careful in heat

as long as they are dry it shouldn't be an issue.  If wet, they can mildew or develop mold which isn't pleasant.
