Patagonia M's Swiftcurrent Expedition Waders Wathose BSNG - Basin Green

With the new Swiftcurrent Expedition, Patagonia presents a revised version of the flagship model from its wader collection – a combination of cutting-edge technology, sustainable materials, and uncompromising functionality. The latest Expedition model impresses with innovative features, an improved design, and a PFC/PFAS-free DWR coating.

The Patagonia Swiftcurrent Expedition is the upgraded version from the renowned outdoor brand, setting new standards in functionality, comfort, and sustainability. This new model boasts an innovative design, improved fit, high-quality materials, and thoughtful details, making it suitable even for the most demanding requirements. Made from H2No® Performance Standard microfiber material consisting of 100% recycled polyester, the Swiftcurrent Expedition provides reliable protection against water and cold. The upper section features a 4-layer, 5.6 oz fabric, while the lower part is reinforced with a 4-layer, 9.5 oz fabric for enhanced durability. Both sections are equipped with a waterproof and breathable membrane and treated with a durable, PFC/PFAS-free DWR coating, ensuring that these waders are not only extremely robust but also environmentally friendly. Patagonia, of course, manufactures these waders in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory, emphasizing fair labor conditions and sustainable production.

The Swiftcurrent Expedition is designed specifically for extreme use on the water, offering an exceptional combination of durability, freedom of movement, and comfort. The new cut of the waders significantly improves wearing comfort, even after long treks. For example, the lower leg sections in larger sizes have been slightly widened to enhance mobility, making it easier to put on and take off the booties. The anatomically shaped booties ensure an optimal fit inside wading boots, significantly contributing to comfort, even during extended use. Thanks to the adjustable suspenders with quick-release buckles, the fit can be easily adapted between chest and waist height, providing additional flexibility in changing conditions. A waterproof internal pocket protects valuable items like a phone or fishing accessories from moisture, while the hand-warmer pockets with zippered covers offer relief for cold hands.

These waders are built to withstand the harshest conditions, whether in icy mountain streams or adverse weather. The well-thought-out design provides maximum freedom of movement and a perfect fit without compromising durability. The Patagonia Swiftcurrent Expedition is ideal for fly fishers who demand the best from their gear – a reliable, durable, and sustainable product that accompanies them on every adventure. With the Swiftcurrent Expedition Zip Front, Patagonia once again proves that technological innovation and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand. For anglers who prioritize quality and sustainability, these waders are an essential companion on the water.
