I have these waders, very good for the money. My last pair wore through at the heel, the thinnish foot material seems to be a weak point in them. To stop it
happening to the replacement pair I covered the heel area with Aquasure and it's been fine so far.
You could try fixing the slits with Aquasure, turn the waders inside out and do the inside of the foot, let this dry and turn them back and do the outside.... should work. |

It might serve you to suture the area before you glue it. Then coat both sides with aquasure or other polyurethane based glue.
