Description
The Delta Wading Jacket is a bombproof fortress of a shell, purpose-built for waterfowl hunters and anglers who spend their full season in waders.
For years, this utilitarian workhorse has been the standard against which all wading jackets are measured. We’ve made it even better with new technology: GORE-TEX® with Stretch across the shoulders and under the arms lets you move and work freely through the long grind of waterfowl season or cold-weather angling—all while staying dry in the nastiest weather from opening day until the open water freezes.

Quality
Review by Michael W. on 10 Sep 2026 review stating Quality
I pit blind hunt with waders on all day. It seems perfect if you have to wade around picking up decoys. I needed a shorter jacket. I will know more after season starts. But the Quality is as expected.

A very ambitious release from Sitka
Review by John D. on 23 Aug 2026 review stating A very ambitious release from Sitka
Right away it was obvious that the shell material and camo print has improved. The material is slightly softer and the camo print is more vibrant. The dry suit gasket sleeves are perfect if sized correctly; however, the exterior shell of the sleeve does not have wrist adjustment to pin the excess material out of the way. Not having exterior wrist adjustment is an egregious oversight for a jacket of this price point. The new 2026 edition is bulkier in the upper torso and throughout the sleeves, which turns this jacket into just another bulky hunting coat. The 2025 model was trim and had an athletic cut, which left plenty of space for layering. This new model unnecessarily got bulkier and addressed a problem that did not exist. The 2026 model has an updated hood design and the sizing of the hood has been corrected from the previous 2025 model.
Overall it’s another solid offering from Sitka. Sitka had a chance to make something special with the introduction of the dry suit gasket sleeves, but they dropped the ball with removing key features like the zippered chest pockets, making the coat unnecessarily bulkier, and providing zero exterior shell wrist adjustment.
I love this brand and I specifically love the Delta line, but there is much to be desired with this jacket.
I’m a 3rd generation waterfowl hunter that has been duck hunting since 1993. I’ve worn and beat up a lot of gear over the decades. I hope the Sitka Design Team takes this feedback and makes the Future Delta Wading jacket (2027 and beyond) the perfect waterfowl wading coat. Sitka is so close to making something truly special and I can’t wait to see it.
