Anyone know how to fix a leaky seam in a neoprene wader?

Thanks, Scott

shoe goo works really well. I bought my dog a neoprene vest last spring and it was a little too big..I cut the seams and took a little material out to make it smaller, shoe goo is still holding strong.

Spent alot of time flyfishing for trout in the 90"s...there was a product called "goop" that worked great for neopreme waders it actually made the patch stronger then the rest of the waders,,,You should call a fly fishing shop for info,,seams can be tricky,,Thorne bros has a fly shop on the other side of their store you could call them

I second the shoe goo, outdoor goo post. That stuff is great for sealing boots and waders. I have a pair of Mickey Boots that the seam split. Sealed it with Shoe Goo over a cloth patch. It has held for three year's hard use.
