Why Outerwear?
- Product Care
GORE-TEX® Outerwear Care:
Cleaning your GORE-TEX® garments regularly will extend the life of the product. It will also keep them breathable as dirt and oil can clog the GORE-TEX® membrane over time.
It is critical to wash jackets. Natural oils can damage the GORE-TEX® tape and adhesives causing a peeling effect.
Machine wash warm. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.
Remember to zip all pockets and close all Velcro cuffs before washing to prevent any damage caused by the machine.
Tumble dry on warm setting making sure not to use a high heat setting. Drying on warm will actually reactivate the DWR coating.

- G4 Pro Jacket Review by ICHItheKILLER
-
Overall Light weight and comfortable. I used my G4 Pro the other day fishing in river for steelhead, it rained on me for four hours straight with no signs of letting up, the jacket kept my face and eye glasses warm and dry, but the only problem I had was the wrist cuff letting in water, I don't think I adjusted it right from the start maybe that's why my forearms got moist. I had a Simms WaderWick Crew Top on with a different brand fleece top on underneath, I did stay warm and dry in all other parts of jacket but the wrists and forearms. I can't wait to get back out and do it again. I would buy this jacket again.

- Best ever all weather jacket Review by Michael
-
Overall No matter if on a Slovenian trout river or fishing the scottish or norwegian salmon rivers and mother nature is showing her moodyness - this jacket keeps me dry and focused on the fishing. simply the best jacket i ever had - with all the small yet so important details as to cuffs, pockets etc simply designed and tailored to perfection. an outstanding jacket which is well worth the money considering the cheaper alternatives.

- Dry is Key Review by Tyler Carson
-
Overall This last Julyuary was a bit rainy at the start. On one day alone I had to bail my drift boat 3x to keep it from filling up. Everything was wet. My guests were soaked through, things were floating around in the boat. After eight hours on the river I got home took of my G4 Pro jacket for the first time since I left that morning and to my surprise I was dry as bone underneath. I no longer cringe when I wake up to monsoon rain on my roof. I know I'll be warm and dry all day.

- The best Review by max
-
Overall I have had a few wading jackets before this and after a day of heavy scottish and alaska rain they have all leaked through given enough time in the consistent rain. this jacket no matter what the weather always holds up and keeps you dry. definitely worth every penny. the pockets are very well thought out when it comes to changing flies, getting leaders and tippets when you need to change quickly it is easy to do. 5/5 without a doubt

- G4 Pro Jacket Review by CTobias
-
Overall When you are pushing back at mother nature and fishing in the nastiest weather she can throw at you, you need a jacket that will keep you dry. I never doubt my G4 jacket to keep me dry when I'm out all day on the water with constant wind or wet snow coming down. Besides, who wants to worry about their gear when they have giant slabs of chrome to catch!

- Count On It Review by fishdog
-
Overall If you are headed somewhere and you either don'tt know what to expect weatherwise or you do know and you expect it to be from bad to very bad this is the jaket you need. I found it to be not only light in weight and comfortable enough to wear all day every day but also highly functional. It had a space and place for all the stuff I like to carry. Having tested it in the most severe of fishig conditions,literaly living in it, I can say without hesitation that I feel confident in recommending this jacket to anyone who needs a really good jacket.

- Always reliable Review by Ak Floater
-
Overall The G4 Pro has become essential equipment and I don't go fishing in Ak without it. We deal with adverse weather conditions frequently. The confidence that is inspired by this piece of equipment more than justifies the investment. The only downside is not having the jacket on when the skies are clear and the temperatures are high. A packable pouch would be handy. I wish the jacket was 2 inches longer. If anything ever happens to this jacket, there will be another on the way as soon as I have cell reception.

- G4pro Review by Terry B.
-
Overall Great,comfortable jacket,Good fit and well designed in terms of pocket accessibility. I have to say I struggle with the current cuff design and because of my big hands I have to released the cuff everytime I take the jacket off... Rain and weather are non-factors when wearing this jacket.Kept dry in all conditions..

- Well worth the money Review by Hugh
-
Overall This is my first try at the Simms G4 wading material and have to say it is well worth the extra money. The G3 fabric is great but the G4 material is in a class of it's own. The fabric is super light, extremely breathable, windproof and thus far, very durable. The extra pockets are well designed. Pairing this jacket with a dry creek waist pack, a long day fishing in damp and cold weather for steelhead become a much more enjoyable expierence. Open up the arm pit zips and this jacket functions well as a mild weather, windproof rain jacket. Haven't had a problem with the cuffs leaking as long as you bind them down properly.
