I love my Drake LST 4 in 1, but that didn't look like much of a sale price.

Spend the money and get a Filson waxed coat. There are quite a few styles made. I am hoping to be able and get one this next year sometime.

I've been wearing the Drake MST mock turtle neck under my waders all season. Today it was 20 degrees and windy and I was plenty warm Had a few layers under it, and was good to go.

mostly water resistant, throw a hoodie under it and your set.

Just got my old man a LST drake wading 4 in one coat. It is awesome. I still have the 4 in one herters jacket which has worked excellent for the past ten years.

I rarely ever wear a coat. Most of the time I just pile on the long sleeve shirts with an Under armour base. If its cold, 30ish, I put on a wind shear sweater or my EST Drake 1/4 zip. Everything I wear tuks in my wadders. Coats are to bulky IMO. I know its wierd, but i don't like gloves either. Last week was the first time a wore gloves this year, and I only wore one on my tiller hand while driving out in the am.

i would buy a Cabela's Bursh buster gore tex 4 in 1 parka. You can't wear it until it gets COLD though or you will sweat bad. I love mine. It has never leaked and it's five years old.

Also a fan of the Drake gear. I don't wear a coat but have some of the other stuff and don't really have a problem staying warm.
