Comments: Amazing product, used it this past weekend and it performed as expected. The only issue was the neck gaiter. They built the seem in the back on the wrong side. I was rubbing on my neck and caused inflammation. I don't understand why the seem was not sawn with material facing out. Major design flaw! Maybe it will losen up, but I'll have to live with it or put on another regular neck gaiter on first..

Comments: The soft shell Reaper is great light weight warm jacket. The kangaroo pocket is great for keeping your hands warm and storage for hand warmers and gloves when going across the lake. The only disadvantage is the built in face gator is pretty tight around the neck but once I stretched it out it became much more comfortable. Great jacket over all. Would recommend.

Comments: I had high hopes for this jacket, and I kept giving it a second chance, but I don't like it. It doesn't breathe, AT ALL. You will sweat like a stuck pig. As other people have said, it's a shell more than a warmth layer. If it doesn't insulate much on its own, and any moisture that it keeps out is more than matched by all the moisture it traps, I'm not sure what good it does for you. I'll be moving mine to the very back of the closet.

Comments: Fished a tournament last weekend in 35° rain... Was way past impressed with the performance of the hoodie... Even at 60+mph across the lake in 30°ish weather it kept the wind out.

Comments: I ordered the pullover hoodie in a medium and had to replace it with a large because it was a little too tight. I would suggest going up one size because the arms were too tight. I am 5' 9", 185lbs.Great product though and I'm looking forward to using it.

Comments: I have 2 and really like them. Do order a size bigger than you need. Great wind breaker on those almost cold days.

Comments: This jacket is great. Most hoods are restrictive and uncomfortable but the hood on this jacket is designed to fit over a hat and works great to keep you dry while fishing in the rain

Comments: the face mask is very tight it makes it very hard to get on and off. it needs to be fixed like the coat where you can use it or not. it is warm and very durable.

Comments: Great jacket that is very warm and well insulated. Sizing is a little small. I am a true large but needed to go with extra large for the right fit.
From: David: 4/18/21
Comments: This outer wear is amazing was out fishing in windy cold like 31 degrees and stayed comfortable the face mask is nice it's very easy to tuck it in the jacket and doesn't get annoying if you don't want to use it otherwise it's everything and more.
From: Brandon: Illinois 3/24/21
Comments: Nice jacket, it fits a little tight. The only change would be to make the face mask removable. It gets annoying after a while.
From: Jeff: Pennsylvania 3/22/21
Comments: Appears nicely made, but the size runs way small. If you are looking for a baggy fit the way it's modeled, buy 2 sizes up.
From: HF: 3/2/21
Comments: Bought for winter time fishing as my outer layer. Works perfect as it doesn't always get extremely cold here in GA.
From: Dan: Woodstock, GA 2/11/21
Comments: Great product and great service by TW. This particular item runs small so consider ordering a size larger
From: Jack: North Carolina 2/6/21
Comments: Excellent quality. Fits well and can tell it is engineered for fishermen. Great Product!

Comments: Great hoodie but the neck is way too tight when not in use
From: Gabriel: Salida, CA 1/29/21
Comments: Nice jacket. Is really just a shell. Doesn't really have lining to it at all. Also, fits like a sweatshirt, not a jacket so might want to order 1 size larger than normal.
From: Brandon: 1/23/21
Comments: Fantastic jacket! Super comfortable and warm. This is a quality/very well made item worth every penny. Keeps the wind out even at 60mph+. My only complaint was that upon receiving the jacket it felt a little stiff- but after wearing it for a short time it softened right up and became my goto jacket/ outer layer.
From: Shawn: Madera, Ca 1/20/21
Comments: I Purchsed this for my husband as a a gift.He loves it.Says it's really great at keeping out the cold and rain.The sleeves, hood and neck are great.My I only complaint is that I ordered it in mid September and it arrived just before Christmas.
From: Amy: Los Angeles 1/20/21
Comments:Quality item. Haven't had the chance to use it on the water yet, but I used it over a sweatshirt while shoving snow and it worked as advertised. Excellent wind stopping outer layer. Easy to move around in. I'm 6'4" and 285#. The 3XL leaves plenty of room to layer under. I'm very particular about being comfortable while I fish, and I'm very impressed with this.
From: BK: Iowa 1/16/21
Comments:I love this jacket! The outside is waterproof, can not feel wind coming thru. It has vent holes in the armpits so if you do start to get a little warm. The built in neck gaiter is super helpful. Another great product from AFTCO, no wonder it got best of category at Icast.
From: Brad: Roswell, NM 1/14/21
Comments:Not what I expected, the neck area is very tight and unless its cold this will not be useful.
From: Kevin: Knoxville, TN 1/9/21
