I have a leak in my crotch sem as well. I bought a can of that Flex Seal that you see on tv and sprayed on the seam. Letting it dry now and hopefully get positive test results this weekend.

Took the waders to a pond in front of the house today to see if leak was fixed. Best I can tell, the leak is fixed. The stuff I used was made by froggtogg.

Used a garbage bag to fend off a hole in the seam around the boot last weekend. It isn't fun to hunt with a watery boot but at least this keeps your foot dry.

I patched using duct tape for strength around those seams in conjunction with shoe glue. I think it will hold up better.
