snowbee, gallons had umpteen pairs of greys which have all leaked, not sure about sonik but i've had a pair snowbees for years without any drama.

Had my greys for 4-5 years now and not a problem with mine and i know a lot of lads who wear them with no problems.......Know a mate who can't say the same about his snowbee's tho!!

But as you see here everyone will have a different opinion so i guess you just have to go with the one's you like the look of and take your chance's.

Depends on where you fish as some rocks will tear holes in any waders mate.

I've got 2 pairs of the Greys, the oldest about 4yrs; the boots on both pairs started to come away around the edges from the soles (usually within a couple of months of the warranty expiring ) but a tube of Stormseal on each foot & they're holding up fine - no other leaks at all. Nothing good to report on Snowbees - leak like tea-bags & studs fall out.

I think if I was in the market for a new pair I'd be getting the Soniks - slightly thicker than the Greys & the boots are a big improvement. However, the next pair I plan on getting is a set of the new Vass waders, they look mint.

Greys for me, but like all fishing gear you have to look after them, It down to personal choice, eveything has ups & downs
