The Simms jacket was created after the famous Patagonia SST fishing jacket, which is supposedly the BEST fishing jacket in existance. The Simms G3 Jacket is also at the tops of the fishing jackets at 425.00 dollars!
The Simms is cool because of the fish emblem on the front, but the SST fits me better. They are both the same cost and are top of the line bomb-proof fishing jackets. The SST is discounted at the Morning Hatch due to it is an older color model. I have the newer Patagonia light weight Deep Wading jacket which is perfect for spring/summer months. In the fall I plan on buying the Simms Guide or SST jacket.
The bottom line is, you will not go wrong with either the SST or Simms Guide Jacket or G3.
Good luck!
