Grundéns Weather Watch Hooded Fishing Jacket

needed a lightweight rain jacket that did the job keeping me dry and still pretty flexible and i like to layer up so my first grundens was a 3xl tall and it was really tight to try to wear a heavier sweater and a t shirt and hoody, this 5xl fits looser and i can move easily around the boat, looks and feels very durable and definitely keeps mew dry so far , the hood works really well can wear a hat and cinch it down without a lot of material blocking my vision

this jacket has held up great! I live on an island in New England working for a boat yard so not only does this jacket get beat up from working in bilges etc but also when crawling around on docks, wading out to hook tow lines up to beached boats in storms but its also around a lot of paints and solvents. it is still very bright for being close to a year old with pretty much daily use, and has stayed waterproof. I would suggest using regular grundens bibs if you will be sitting in water or on abrasive surfaces as they are a bit dryer and stronger. will defiantly buy another when I wear this one out!the pocket mesh is starting to tear in a few spots (surprised its lasted this long after always having wrenches and parts in them) and there is one micro hole in the left arm from moving cribbing blocks around for blocking boats.I bought this jacket for directing traffic when moving boats down the street and now wear it all the time!the hood also stays on better then any jacket I have had in the past! a major plus when out on the open work boat in 40-50 knot winds.do your self a favor if you are looking for a good way to be seen as well as stay dry and buy this jacket!

I work outside in a plant/tree nursery. I worked in the rain and the jacket and pants were flexible. it was cold so I was wearing them over a regular jacket and fleece lined pants. they were comfortable and moved as I was moving trees and shrubs from a truck to the ground then back onto a wagon. the best thing was when I put the suit on I did not start to perspire like I do when I put on my rubber Carhardt heavy duty bib overalls and jacket. the pants have a nice wide belt which holds them up with the need for suspenders. excellent rain gear.

this jacket is sweet. relatively low cost, very waterproof, very comfortable and durable. I wear it for hard outdoor work, and so far it has been outstanding. its thin, but not like those tissue paper rain jackets made by north face, Columbia, or Patagonia. they may be water proof, but the grundens stuff can take one heck of a beating. nice, durable zippers and seams. good adjustable hood. convenient pockets. everything about it is high quality, even down to the velcro cuffs. this was recommended to me by a brother in the commercial shipping industry, and I have already recommended this to other friends and family. grundens rocks.

This jacket is amazing! I work in a mill and this jacket keeps me dry no matter how horrible the conditions are outside. It is not a very flattering cut for a women but for what I need it for, it didn't matter. I do buy another one to have at home in red. It gets used a lot when I have to be outside in the rain that we get in the Pacific Northwest. The only downfall, that is why I gave it 4 not 5 stars, is that it does not breath so I do sweat quite a bit when its raining and I am layered. The color is awesome too, it is the hi-vis that I am required to wear when outside. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice lightweight, NON BREATHABLE, raincoat. The color of the jacket in the picture does not do it justice, it is a true hi-vis yellow, the picture looks a bit more mustard. I will be buying another on when mine needs replaced!

The jacket is very nice. I ordered it for a friend in Men's 3X and it turned out to be too small around the waist, so he could not zip it. He got a different jacket in 3X in the same order, that fit just fine. Okay, so now I am looking into returning this item (which has not been worn--just tried on) and find out that it is non-returnable! Interestingly, the 2X and the 4X sizes in that jacket are returnable. We had been looking at lots of jackets the night we ordered it, so I missed that this particular size was non-returnable. I am not very happy about this! It's one thing if the policy applied to all sizes of this jacket, but it did not. Again, the jacket is of fine quality, but the return policy stinks!

We purchased rain gear for 2 of our workers. Two were Grundéns Men's Weather Watch Bib Trouser in glacier blue. And two were Grundéns Men's Weather Watch Ansi Fishing Jacket in Hi-Vis Yellow (please note, one of the jackets was not available from OutdoorEquipped and purchased elsewhere. We have had some very stormy, windy, wet weather the last week and he guys are very happy with their rain gear. Both gentlemen ordered their normal size, and everything fit as expected. They wear their gear over their uniforms. When asked if they liked their rain gear, I was told "We love them! They're great! Thanks soooo much." They offered no complaints. As for shipping...best ever! Very often with free shipping you wait forever, but we received the items in 2 shipments, one in 5 days the other in 7 days. We highly recommend Grundéns trousers and jackets and will purchase them again.

I like Grundéns clothing and have a great pair of waterproof pants with bib which has plenty of room. I ordered this jacket at my size 2XL and though I could put it on it was very,very tight so I returned it and ordered a 3X. Unfortunately is still on the small size though it fit...kind of. I like my rain gear loose so it can breath and no cling to me. I've kept the 3X but I'm not thrilled with it because it's small size...
