Recommendations New Jacket
I am looking for a new jacket, that can really take cold and rain. I bought something at cabbalas last year but did not like that it was short. The next size up with sort of big. But I liked that you could use it to layer up. It had like 3 parts to it.
What do you all suggest.

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
If you ain't spending $400 on a light weight Sitka jacket then you ain't in the "in" crowd.

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
Always been content with the browning stuff, but currently have 2 game winners from academy. One is more of a wader length, the other more parka. The first is what I wear when it's colder. It's not multi layer, just thicker. The other has a liner. They both have made their share of rainstorms, haven't been wet yet in 2 years with both.

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
I have a Browning jacket that I bought in the 90's and it is still waterproof, hasn't leaked yet. It's made with gore-tex. Only thing I don't like about the dirty bird stuff is the bright ass orange logo. What's up with all the florescent colors on camo these days?

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
I love my browning dirty bird. Try amazon.com, way cheaper there. I paid 85 vs 200

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
If its sunny, the marsh pattern blends into anything. Cloudy days, the timber pattern would be better.

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
Beretta Xtreme Ducker line of duck hunting gear is top notch. I have the 3-in-1 jacket, and decoy gloves. Cant beat them and Ive had browning and drake.

Re: Recommendations New Jacket
I have few of the Sitka jackets but I think if I had to pick one it would be the delta. The duck oven and kelvin are comfy but the outer material sucks. Too delicate feeling. If I rip it in the bush I wouldn't be shocked. I never really had a bitch about drake other than they never had a truly waterproof piece. I'm interested in the First Lite line but I've yet to be in a store that sells it. The First Lite Seak stormtight jacket has really good reviews for a waterproof layer. A good review can be found on the Rokslide forum. Their fusion camo looks good too.
