If purchased directly from Simms, please visit the repair and warranty page at https://www.simmsfishing.com/pages/repairs to start your claim. You are responsible for charges related to shipping the wader to Simms. Simms will cover return shipping of the wader to you.

If purchased from an authorized Simms dealer in North America, you may return your waders to that dealer for assistance in creating a warranty claim. You must provide the original sales receipt or proof of purchase to the authorized dealer.

If purchased outside the US and Canada, please consult the dealer where your product was purchased to confirm international warranty terms in your territory.

If your wader needs repair after your first year, Simms charges a flat fee of $60 for evaluation, repair, testing of repairs and return shipping back to you. To initiate a repair, please use the Simms Online Repair Center or you may contact the authorized Simms Dealer where your wader was purchased to send the waders to Simms.
