Filson Foul weather fishing vest Review

"The concept, style, and functionality of this vest are tops - two straps with large pockets (and a fleece patch) for flyfishing items in the front, and a packback/game pocket on the back for a jacket, lunch, etc. But its method of waterproofing is waxed (oil-impregnated) cotton and so it doesn't "breathe" at all. Even in chilly weather I get uncomfortably warm wearing it. Perhaps Filson will someday join the gore-tex world; until that day, I'd avoid this product even though I'm ordinarily a big Filson fan."
