Patagonia Mens Swiftcurrent Traverse Wading Pant

The Patagonia Traverse Wading Pants provide a lightweight, low-bulk alternative to traditional chest-high waders for anglers who value mobility and versatility. Designed for beach fishing, drift boat trips, warm-weather wading, small-stream adventures, and fishing travel, these wading pants provide dependable protection without the extra coverage and bulk of full-height waders.

Built with Patagonia's durable, field-tested 4-layer construction, the Traverse Wading Pants use a 5.6-oz 100% recycled material package designed to stand up to regular use on the water. A durable water repellent (DWR) finish made without intentionally added PFAS adds protection from wet conditions while maintaining the lightweight feel anglers need for active fishing.

Thoughtful patterning, innovative sizing, and a streamlined feature set create a comfortable fit with the freedom of movement needed for hiking, casting, rowing, and navigating technical water. Easy to pack and versatile enough for a wide range of fisheries, the Patagonia Traverse Wading Pants are an excellent choice when traditional chest waders are more than the conditions require.
