Who It's For
Hunters who want a lightweight, non-insulated neoprene hip wader in a camo finish — built for mild to cool conditions where warmth isn't the priority but briarproof protection and waterproofing are. The Five Star Chap with LaCrosse Alpha Lite II pairs Dan's best-selling waterproof chap with a versatile 3.5mm neoprene boot in Mossy Oak Country Roots/Brown. An adjustable gusset fits it close to your calf, and at 4.8 lbs., it's light enough to cover ground without wearing you out.
What Are Froglegs?
Froglegs are Dan's solution to hip-deep conditions. Each pair starts with a briarproof outer chap lined with water-repellent nylon that runs all the way down to the lower ankle. Dan's team then sews and seals that chap directly to the boot of your choice, creating a waterproof hip wader that also sheds briars and brush from boot to belt. Wear them pulled up and attached to your belt with the adjustable straps, or fold them down and snap them at the knee when conditions allow.

Why It's Worth It
- Camo Finish: Mossy Oak Country Roots/Brown pattern blends in where solid brown or orange stands out, making them right for hunters who prefer low-profile gear in the field.
- Neoprene Fit and Comfort: 3.5mm neoprene with an adjustable gusset fits closer and moves more naturally than rubber. That’s less bulk and better mobility through a full day on the water.
- Non-Insulated for Mild Conditions: Built for the shoulder seasons and warmer hunting days. No excess warmth when you don't need it.
- Hip-Deep Waterproof: The sewn-and-sealed chap-to-boot construction keeps water out from boot sole to belt.
- Briarproof From Boot to Belt: Water-repellent nylon lining runs to the lower ankle so briars don't find a gap at the boot top.
- Hand-Sewn in the USA: The chap and sealing process are crafted in Ohio for superior quality and field-readiness.
Sizing Guide
- Chap thigh: Measure around the largest part of your thigh over your jeans and add 2–3 inches. Order 2–3 inches shorter than your normal inseam; 3 inches shorter is recommended. If between sizes, most buyers choose the shorter length.
- Boot size: LaCrosse Alpha Lite II Boots are true to size. Boot sizes 6–15 available. If you plan to wear heavy socks, size up.
