Guideline Driva Zip Wader

The Guideline Driva Zip wader is made from smooth and soft recycled polyester, offering durability and comfort for active days on the water. With excellent breathability and waterproofing, it features a PFAS-free DWR and an easy-to-use TiZip® MasterSeal zipper. Its functional design ensures comfort and performance while aiming to reduce its environmental footprint.

Comfort for body & mind

The Driva wader reflects our effort to make more considered choices—starting with materials. After thorough research, we chose recycled high-tenacity polyester—a fabric that’s both high-performing and made from previously used materials. For us, it was a straightforward way to reduce dependence on new resources without compromising the product. Due to its well-articulated fit at the knees and seat area, this wader is ideal for long, active fishing days with lots of movement, even in warmer conditions. The recycled polyester fabric feels smooth, comfortable and soft while remaining durable and resistant to wear.

Scale™ PRO membrane technology
Featuring our Scale™ PRO membrane technology, the Driva offers excellent breathability and water resistance, with a waterproof rating of 20,000 mm and breathability of 7,000 g/m²/24h. We use bluesign®-approved fabrics and a PFAS-free DWR, eliminating all fluorocarbons that could otherwise bleed into the water. To add extra comfort, the proven TiZip® MasterSeal zipper makes the wader easy to get in and out of. The wader features a well-fitted, adjustable, and elastic suspender system with the new Duraflex ® suspender holder in the back. The waist belt has a stiff elasticity that ensures a great fit, with the opportunity to fasten accessories like a wading staff or pliers, while keeping the belt in place using the belt loops.

Great storage & YKK AquaGuard® zippers
On the chest, you have two horizontal YKK AquaGuard® splash-proof zippered pockets with generous storage space, and drained hand-warmer pockets for those colder days. There are two Hypalon docking stations for easy access to your accessories. The wader also features a vertical inside pocket with AquaGuard® zipper, and a Velcro fly patch that allows you to dry your flies or attach an embroidered patch. On the back, you’ll find a D-ring to fasten your net. The anatomical Comfort Plus™ neoprene socks are designed for a precise fit, with the Driva LARGE available in sock sizes #9-11 or #12-13.

No-snag Hybrid Gravel Guard™
The Hybrid Gravel Guard™ combines the durable main fabric with reinforced neoprene for both strength and stretch and features a snug fit to keep sand and debris out. On the front, a non-corrosive, hidden boot hook keeps the gravel guard securely in place and prevents line snags, as it remains tucked inside the edge. Finally, the Driva waders are delivered in a ventilated mesh bag for easy transport and storage.

Important note - YKK AquaGuard® zippers are water-resistant but not fully waterproof. They're great for splashes and light rain, but not for full submersion. We recommend not storing phones or other electronics in these pockets during wet conditions.
