Surf-furWaterparka - Warm Fleece Jacket - Men & Women - Swim, Dive, Surf Water Parka - Windproof, Waterproof & Reversible

Yes it’s a large price tag. But this product is well made, super comfortable and so warm! I’ve used this parka for early morning masters training when the pool deck is 40°, gotten out of the pool and totally comfortable hanging out in the parka. I’ve also used this all week for surf rescue training. From boat ops to standing on wind swept beaches waiting to go back in the water for another drill. Can’t rave enough, it’s my most favorite purchase in a while.I did buy a large and it’s quite roomy, almost too big but didn’t want to wait for an exchange. After using it to change and bundle up with, I’m glad I have the extra room.

I go to early morning swim classes at the YMCA 5 days a week and needed something warm/waterproof/windproof. It fits great! I love that it has snaps and no zippers!

We are cold water divers and this will be perfect on a boat or shore for warmth after and between the dives. It’s well made and I’m sure we will get many, many years of use from it. Don’t think twice, just get it.

This jacket was ginormous! Make sure you verify the size because my order was super large! I ordered an M but the sleeves were three inches longer on both sides! It didn't keep me as warm as I had hoped, perhaps if I swam with my wet suit it would work better. But typically I swim sans wet suit.

Perfect for year-round use on the Oregon coast for to and from the hot tub. I'm 6'1" and the XL, fits just as I wanted. The sleeves are long and have adjustable elastic cuffs, so hands stay warm, without gloves. Snaps are nice, often only a couple snaps needed, and you don't have to deal with long zipper. I don't even bother with a towel.I just get out of the hot tub, put on the waterparka and I am immediately comfortable. Roomy enough and handy to change a swimsuit with the openings within the pockets. Also the openings are nice for accessing pockets in clothes worn underneath, without unsnapping. It is comfy fleece that appears it would hold up like any fleece outerwear, but the waterproof material is a big plus. It is ideal for a robe in the house, if you ever need to take the chill off, and if there was ever a need for a survival garment, this would be hard to beat.

My instructors all had these when we were doing my Dry Suit certification back in April (Iowa) and when I was freezing in the 40 degree air one of them loaned me theirs, and said, you have to get one of these... I did, and I won't go without it on even a mildly windy day. Just so warm, comfortable and you can basically change clothes under it and keep warm on the chilliest of dive days! MUST HAVE!!

Like the most comfortable robe meets offshore use! This is a great product! Unlike the think and skimpy post-dive or post-surf parkas that are out there, this one is thick and soft. It takes up a bit more space in your gear but you wont be disappointed!

Was under the assumption that these used to be made in the US. That's very important to me and I'm willing to pay for a product that's made here but not pay a premium for a product that's made in China. They still weren't it in the description to give the assumption that it's made here but it is not. But they still charge like it is.I will definitely be returning mine
