Leland on Simms Fly Fishing Vests
When KC Walsh bought the wader side of LifeLink out
of Jackson, WY, his intent was to develop waders that could withstand
the abuse of full time fishing guides. It wasn't long before the Simms
name was seen on the majority of the guides in the Rocky Mountains.When
W.L. Gore decided it was time to put GORE-TEX in waders the logical
choice was Simms. Working hand in hand with Gore, the Simms designers
soon developed the now famous Guide Wader. This wader has been the
hallmark of breathable waders and continues to have the competition
scrambling to catch up. When Simms decided it was time to move into
vest arena we knew it was going to be done the right way. Today Simms
designs and manufactures some the most functional and comfortable vest
on the market. And as with their patented Guide Wader these vest are
guide-proof.
