I just bought an excellent shape used nylon booted waders from a Kijiji seller, I put it on and tested it on our condo swimming pool with 80 degrees water, and the chest waders felt like it had a vacuum cleaner inside, the nylon material hugged and glued to whatever body parts that were submerged on the swimming pool water. Very hard to walk in it, and it got warm and sticky very fast. IS THIS NORMAL for a nylon waders?

 

Never tried it on colder water temp on rivers yet. Nothing wrong with the waders, and in excellent and clean shape. No holes either.

The weight of the water will compress the material against your body so that is normal. Even moreso of a feeling standing in a river with a current.

 

Cool/cold water will alleviate that sweltering feeling for sure. What you felt is completely normal.
