Need to buy something waterproof soon. Virginia rain is no joke.

All Drake here. Have the quater zip pull over with the vents on the sides for the warmer days and for the cold days the Drake fleece base layer and you are good for the low 20's

Have been wearing a UA skysweeper jacket for 3yrs. Lightweight, fits inside waders, very warm and wind proof. Have worn it in a good rain and it holds up, but I don't think it will keep you dry in the serious rain. Overall love the jacket, for the price. Think it was around $160. Next purchase will be Columbia though.. Last one was 15yrs old when I lost it.

I would go with Colombia, or a Helly Hansen slicker and layer up. The latter would be less bulky and the best bet for staying dry.

Seems like they just seaped through the material once it got saturated was in a torrential down pour last year with my cabelas dry plus and stayed dry

Yeh Drake definitely won't keep you dry in a down pour.

Yep.. Had a Columbia zipper brake on me and I called them and without a problem he gave me an address to send it to and I had a new jacket in a few weeks. Jacket was 3 years old I believe, but excellent service

I have a Redhead 4n1.

Keeps me completely dry in downpours. Great jacket.
