Guideline ULBC waders

Guideline Ultra Light Back Country wader is made for the hiking & travelling fly angler. Minimalistic convertible design, low weight and outstanding packability. Who hasn’t been packing for a trip over seas or a backcountry trip and asked yourself whether to bring the waders or not from a weight & bulk aspect? Think no more. Our Ultra Light Back Country wader is designed to be a no-brainer in your bag or backpack, yet still offer you the possibility to wade out within reach of that fish or to let you fish upstream, along and across your dream river. The choice of materials is packable, breathable and hardly noticeable when you wear them. They form what is likely to be the lightest full height wader in the market, so this is definitely not your choice for daily hard-core angling. They feature the vertically adjustable Elevator™ Braces, turning them into a waist wader in seconds giving you great comfort when hiking along or between waters.

The detachable waterproof TPU-pocket makes sure that you can operate your phone without taking it out. The perfect fitted stocking feet feature the most sustainable and functional solution out there using plant based Yulex® Natural Rubber and a limestone based high density sole. This in combination with main fabric gravel guards, they provide for the best match with your wading boots and long days of hiking and fishing. The material in the ULCB wader is two-way mecanical stretch, 2,5-layer Recycled Nylon in upper front leg and above waist. Below the waist we use a 3,5-layer Recycled Nylon fabric. Waterproofness of 25.000 mm and breathability of 8.000 g/m2/24h in the whole wader.

CLEAN-ALL-THE-WAY PRODUCT REPORT
All main fabrics are made of recycled Nylon and main fabrics, buckles and much of the trims are 3rd party bluesign® approved. To reduce the use of petroleum-based neoprene, the socks use plant based Yulex® Natural Rubber from FSC certified hevea rubber trees. Yulex® Natural Rubber reduce the CO2 emissions by up to 80% compared to petroleum based neoprene. The rubber is laminated to recycled polyester on both sides and fastened to the wader by using a water-based glue.
This is by far a better choice for the environment compared to industrial neoprene. For the stocking foot sole, an extremely high dense rubber is required and here a limestone based rubber is the best combination of performance and endurance while caring for our planet. This material uses calcium carbonate from limestone sedimentary rocks to form chloroprene rubber chips and they are then melted, infused and baked into foams before sliced to the correct thickness. The ULBC wader is a fluorocarbon free product.
