Comparing fabric mass in PVC chest and hip waders
Read the model table for ITC-9000, KTC-8000, IKC-1650 and KKC-1800, keeping coverage height separate from fabric mass.
Quick answer
Chest and hip waders provide different garment coverage. Compare fabric mass after selecting the required product type. A g/m² figure does not specify a safe water depth.
Compare models within the same coverage type
ITC-9000 and KTC-8000 are chest waders; IKC-1650 and KKC-1800 are separate-leg hip waders. Differences in fabric area and cut mean finished weight cannot be calculated from mass per area alone. Compare samples in the same boot size and over the same underlayers.
Joins and straps are part of the decision
Review the boot-to-fabric join, strap access and leg movement. A thicker-looking fabric does not establish a particular tear or puncture class. If the job requires measured strength, request the test method and exact model scope.
- Choose the coverage type before comparing fabric mass.
- Confirm garment dimensions and boot size separately.
Current model data and technical sources
This table uses the same data as product pages and model TDS documents. Fabric mass is in g/m², not finished product weight. Missing fields require confirmation.

Are chest waders automatically safe in deeper water?
No. Garment height does not establish safe wading depth or buoyancy. Current, footing and site procedures need separate assessment.
