In some embodiments, the inventive subject matter is directed to a modular waders system that includes: a main waders garment and a covering unit. The covering unit may have multiple functions expressed in one or more layers, the functions being selected from the group of: durability, waterproofness or water resistance, breathability, insulation, cushioning, thermoregulation, and 2-way or 4-way elasticity. The waders system includes a coupling system that makes the covering unit easily donned or removed by the user as conditions dictate. In some embodiments, the inventive subject matter is directed to waders or other garment having a frontside portion with a mobile device holder comprising a flap, the holder configured to contain or couple to a handheld imaging device having a camera, the flap having one edge portion coupled to the other side so that the flap can reposition from a first position to a second position.

A footwear traction device is provided that is removably attachable to an item of footwear. The footwear traction device comprises a traction portion having one or more traction elements on a bottom thereof, a heel support portion disposed at a rear traction portion, and a forefoot support portion disposed at a forefoot traction portion. A cable extends through cable guides or channels and attaches the traction portion, the heel support portion, and the forefoot support portion together. A cable reel device is rotatably operable to adjust a length of the cable to selectively secure and unsecure the footwear traction device to the item of footwear. Shortening the length of the cable tightens the traction portion, the heel support portion and the forefoot support portion inwardly against the item of footwear, thereby securing the footwear traction device to the footwear.
