Forge Waders

Built to perform. Built to Last.

Forged to Endure.

No shortcuts here. The Forge Waders were designed for hunters who show up in the dark, break ice at the shoreline, and stay in it when conditions turn brutal. They were built and tested, where failure isn’t an option. Whether you’re pushing through flooded timber, or knee-deep cattails, Forge Waders deliver zero quit—season after season.

Outwork the Elements

NEW

Waterfowlers are notoriously hard on their gear, and we built the Forge Wader to withstand seasons of abuse from hardcore hunters by eliminating the most failure points with a never-before-seen one-piece design and minimal seaming. Simplicity was the inspiration behind designing a wader that failed less, but that didn't stop us from loading the Forge Wader with features like the exclusive LaCrosse Alpha Wader boot, internally bonded neoprene knee pads, and Hypalon MOLLE platforms to customize your waders with accessories like FHF Gear pouches and shotshell holders.

We spent more than four years building, testing, rebuilding, and retesting these waders across 11 states in the harshest environments we could find—because when it comes to waterfowl gear, we know that “failure” simply isn’t an option.

Field & Marsh Waterfowl Pattern

Typha™

Waterfowling is a grind. 2:00 AM wake-up calls, freezing rain, driving whitecaps; it's not for the faint of heart. With this experience in mind, we created a camo pattern, Typha, and a line that's rooted in bombproof construction and smarter design, culminating in deadly efficacy for the most dedicated duck and goose hunters – the fanatics, the guides, and the 100+ day workhorses.

Timber Waterfowl Pattern

Darkwater

First Lite Darkwater camo was built with the same nature-based algorithm as the Typha, Specter, Fusion, and Cipher patterns but features considerably more micro-breakup elements and high contrast textures to keep hunters hidden from ducks in the up-close-and-personal engagements of the flooded timber.
