Simms G3Z Pro Wader
The G3Z Pro takes everything in the new G3 Pro and adds a waterproof TIZIP centre front zip. That makes it easier to get in and out of, easier to deal with a mid session toilet stop, and much easier to vent when you’re walking a long way between pools on a warm day.
Underneath, it’s the same rebuilt fabric package as the G3 Pro. The lower legs and seat use Simms’ four layer GORE TEX Pro shell, built for high resistance to pinhole punctures where waders take the most abuse. The upper is a breathable three layer GORE TEX fabric that keeps you dry without overheating.
This wader suits flyfishers who spend long days on the water and want the toughness of the G3 Pro with the convenience of a zip. If you fish back country streams in summer, wade big rivers in winter, or just want more ease of use, this is the model for you.

I’ve used this wader for several weeks on both summer and winter trips. The front zip makes getting in and out much easier, especially when I need to stop for a break. The waterproof seal holds well, and the breathable upper keeps me comfortable in warm conditions. The durability of the lower legs has held up well in rocky streams.

Great addition to my fly fishing gear. The zip is reliable and easy to operate. I’ve waded through deep rivers and the GORE TEX layers have not worn down or leaked. The fit is snug but not tight, and it stays dry even in heavy rain.

The wader performs well in most conditions. The front zip is a nice improvement over previous models. I did notice a slight stiffness when first putting it on, but it loosens up after a few minutes. Overall, it’s a solid choice for long days on the water.
