Based in Bozeman, Montana, USA, Simms made their first pair of fishing waders in 1980 and the world's first GORE-TEX breathable waders soon thereafter. Since then, Simms has made quality fishing gear for anglers of all stripes and all points of the globe, from tournament bass anglers and professional fishing guides to kids just getting into fishing. Like you, Simms has come to realize that fishing isn’t a pastime. It’s not a hobby. And it’s not a sport. Fishing is a way of life. And Simms firmly believe we all owe it to ourselves to make as much time as possible to do the things we truly live for. After all, you get one life. #FishItWell.
