I think the same as Davef. The water will spread on the inside layer of the neoprene, and appear to be coming through the entire area. I think the inside layer is more padding than actual neoprene on most. Try getting some blue paper towels from the auto parts store, and wrap around your waders when you do your water test, or go over your waders with it while doing your testing. That should help show where your leak is coming out first, then spreading in the padding. I've heard that the seems are usually the first to go. If you can't find the leak, give the seems a once over with patching cement. Do a search or PM Mr. Slickfish, he had a good product on here for fixing neoprene that you can get in plumbing supply stores.
