Simms Men’s G3 Guide Wading Jacket

The newly upgraded Simms Men’s G3 Guide Wading Jacket continues its legacy as one of the most trusted jackets in fly fishing.

Updated for 2026, this iconic piece combines lightweight durability with industry-leading waterproof performance, thanks to its 3-layer GORE-TEX construction featuring a new ePE PFAS-free laminate and C0 DWR finish. The result is a jacket that delivers dependable weather protection while reducing environmental impactall backed by Simms Guaranteed To Keep You Dry promise.

Built specifically for anglers who spend long days wading and casting, the G3 Guide Jacket includes a 3-point adjustable storm hood with a brim that maintains clear peripheral vision while sealing out rain and wind. Shingled watertight cuffs with internal cinch adjustments prevent water intrusion and eliminate line snagging when releasing fish or casting. Combined with articulated sleeves and a Cast-Back panel design, the jacket allows completely unrestricted casting motion whether you’re throwing long dries or heavy streamers.

Practical storage and wading-specific details make the G3 Guide a true workhorse on the river. Two large fly-box pockets easily hold medium-sized boxes, while YKK Aqua-Seal self-draining hand pockets are positioned higher on the body to remain accessible while wading. The waist-length cut pairs perfectly with waders while still offering versatility for boat or shoreline fishing.

A special limited edition Simms Orange version adds enhanced safety with a wide orange stripe across the back of the hood, increasing visibility in low-light conditions or busy waterways.
