The Orvis Ultralight Waterproof Wading Jacket is a premium packable fishing shell designed for anglers who prioritize lightweight performance, breathability, and dependable storm protection without the bulk of a traditional guide jacket. Built with a two-way stretch, three-layer waterproof-breathable fabric featuring a 20K waterproofness/20K breathability rating, fully taped seams, and YKK AquaGuard® zippers, it provides serious weather protection while remaining light enough to stow in a sling pack or daypack. Recent updates added a more durable waterproof membrane that Orvis says extends the jacket's waterproof lifespan by as much as three times compared to the original version.
