There are good raincoats, and then there are GREAT raincoats. We steelhead anglers in the Pacific Northwest know a thing or two about rain and about the jackets that are designed to keep the rain out. When the rain never stops and the wind adds to the chill in the air, we reach for the best raincoat money can buy - and it happens to be made by Patagonia.

Designed for nature’s most unpredictable changes, the Swiftcurrent® Wading Jacket is our most versatile technical jacket. The 4-layer, waterproof/breathable H2No® Performance Standard shell is built of NetPlus® 100% postconsumer recycled nylon made from recycled fishing nets to help reduce ocean plastic; with a durable water repellent (DWR) finish made without intentionally added PFAS. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.
