hip waders

Tall waterproof boots

Hip waders are waterproof boots that extend from the foot up to the hip, worn for wading in deep water.

Fishermen wear them to stand in streams and rivers.

Unlike chest waders, which form a single garment with suspenders, hip waders come as two separate boots and attach to the belt: He pulled on his hip waders and stepped into the creek.
