Dames Ultralight Waadjack

The tailored fit is a game-changer—no more flapping fabric when I’m casting, and it layers perfectly over my vest. I’ve been out in a steady drizzle for hours and stayed completely dry, which is more than I can say for my old jacket.

Finally, a wading jacket that doesn’t drown me in fabric—the tailored cut actually moves with me instead of bunching up when I cast. The ultralight shell kept me bone-dry through a steady drizzle, and I forgot I was even wearing it until the wind picked up.

I’ve worn it through three rainy mornings and stayed completely dry underneath, which is exactly what I needed from a wetsuit-style shell. The ultralight fabric packs down small enough to toss in my vest pocket, and the women’s tailored cut doesn’t bunch up when I’m casting.
