Simms Fishing Products is a Bozeman, Montana-based manufacturer of technical fishing apparel, footwear, and gear. Its products are designed to keep anglers dry, comfortable, and protected from the elements across varying conditions. Founded in 1980 by John Simms to improve waders and related gear, the company moved to Bozeman in 1993 after being acquired by K. C. Walsh, and a 2012 expansion created a 60,000-square-foot facility that houses headquarters, warehouses, and production, reinforcing its status as the sole fishing wader manufacturer in the United States. In the fishing equipment industry, Simms positions itself around U.S.-based manufacturing and a focus on technical gear. Its customers are anglers seeking durable, purpose-built products, and in 2025 the company launched ReCast, a resale platform to support product lifecycles.
