Try not to walk long distances while wearing them. What I mean is if you have a long distance to walk before actually needing to wade then dont put them on till you get there. The seams will get worn out around the inner leg.

Take care when dragging rigs up the beach, they will get tangled round your legs and before you know it you will have pin prick holes from your hooks.
