FAQs

What makes this jacket suitable for fishing?

It features angler-specific design elements like watertight cuffs to prevent line snagging and wet sleeves, an adjustable storm hood for weather protection, and articulated sleeves for casting freedom.

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features 3-layer GORE-TEX® construction, which is Guaranteed to Keep You Dry™, providing robust waterproof protection.

How do I maintain the jacket's waterproofness?

Regular cleaning with liquid detergent and a double rinse, followed by tumble drying, helps maintain performance. Periodically, reapply a DWR treatment.

What is the benefit of the PFAS-free membrane?

The PFAS-free membrane is an environmentally conscious choice that still delivers high levels of waterproof and breathable performance, reducing the use of certain chemicals.

Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?

While breathable, it is primarily a protective outer layer for wet and cool conditions. For very warm weather, lighter, less waterproof options might be more comfortable, but this jacket's breathability helps manage heat.

What sizes and colors are available?

The Simms G3 Guide Wading Jacket is available in sizes Small to XXLarge and comes in the Elkhorn color.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the jacket

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and cuffs are properly sealed. If the DWR finish has worn off, reapply a DWR treatment. If the issue persists, the GORE-TEX® membrane may be compromised; contact Simms customer support.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable

Check that the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane pores. Wash according to care instructions. Ensure pit zips (if applicable on other models) are open.

Zipper is difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a toothbrush and water. Apply a small amount of wax or zipper lubricant to help it slide smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is designed to be worn over other fishing apparel. For care, always follow the manufacturer's specific instructions found on the care label.

  • Washing: Machine wash cold with a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners.
  • Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a medium heat setting for about 20 minutes, or until completely dry. Air drying may not reactivate the DWR finish.
  • Re-waterproofing: Periodically, apply a DWR treatment (like Simms Waterproofing Wax or similar GORE-TEX®-approved product) to maintain water repellency. Follow the DWR product's application instructions.
