Challenge Accepted!!!
As a full time fishing guide, quality rain gear is absolutely critical to my greater success!! Ordered a couple of these to keep in dry storage for clients. Excellent performance for the money! Highly recommend 🎣

Stayed dry like never before
In the past I always bought mid priced rain gear. After getting completely soaked while fishing. I knew I needed better gear. I bought my first simms rain jacket. There are several things that’s stand out. The cuffs are designed to stay dry while casting in the rain. The hood and neck design allow you to shield your face from rain while maintaining a wide view. Lastly, it has kept me dry both times I needed it.

Great jacket but…
Well made but significantly heavier than the description would lead one to believe.

Jacket review
Jacket ran big. Outside construction was flawless but the inside had the incomplete look. No liner, loose threads, seems separating not secured, etc. For the price it wasn't worth it. I get the Simms name is what you are paying for but being on the water 200 plus days a year the quality wasn't there

Comfortable/Durable/Good Price
Last year’s design (the one with the football jersey-style logo across the back) purchased on sale kept me dry for four days chasing Rogue River half-pounder steelhead in off-and-on rain. Sturdy fabric promises years of service. Layers great! I didn’t have to look at the funky back logo and didn’t care if my fishing buddies made fun of it. If I drowned face down in the river the reflective SIMMS logo across the back would have made it easier to find and remove my carcass before it could spoil the fishing!
