Great Product
First trip out after getting this I had to go retrieve a rig from a jetty I had waves crashing over my head in some cases and I managed to stay dry so I would highly recommend this. The only downside I see is that the latex cuffs are too tight and you can feel the throbbing still a great top

Pros: Well Sealed Cons: Tricky to get on/off Recommended: Yes
Seriously Dry
This jacket is for staying dry when it is harsh. This is jacket has great seal around the waist and cuffs (rubber and neoprene). The neck seal is a bit bulky, but soft. If you're in/out of a jacket, fishing light drizzel, or generally fair weather and surf go for the zip-up jacket.

Great Top!
I just finished my 3rd season with the top and it is a great jacket! I use it for surf fishing in colder weather and clamming. Whats great is I can stick my hand in the water and my sleeve stays dry, which is especially important when i go clamming in january! Neck gasket is good, doesn't let water in. I have been knocked off rocks briefly and have actually floated with waders and this top with no water down the back. I will admit that I have not pounded this jacket day in day out though, but it has seen good use and seals are holding up well. Make sure to buy one size up from your normal jacket size, they run small. There is no insulation, which I prefer, but requires you to layer.

Good Dry Top
I've gone through 2 seasons with my dry top and haven't had any problems. I can't imagine fishing without it. Keeps you dry so you can fish longer.

Decent top
I purchased this top in the beginning of the 09' season. After many many outings throughout the season I've become a little disappointed with the performance. the Velcro hip closure is beginning to break down, thankfully my wader belt is keeping the jacket nice and snug. I do love the adjustable neck closure! Its nice to close it up when the waves are pounding, and open it to let my body release some body heat. Make sure to order a size or too up!!! I take the 3XL, I normally wear XL clothing, and Jackets!
