Jacket fits perfectly, keeps the wind out and allows for layering.

Love this jacket

I purchased a Hudson jacket in Waterfowl timber pattern early this fall and finally had the chance to use it this past week. Boy am I glad I spent the money on it. I hunted a flooded field with winds out of the west at about 30 mph the first day I wore it. I had a thermal undershirt on, a Rogers Toughman vest, and this jacket, and I didn’t feel the cold one time. The air temp that day was maybe upper 40’s, but the night before it got down to like 18 degrees. I had to bust through ice on my paddle back to the truck after my hunt. Completely water and windproof. Would definitely buy again and highly recommend. If you’re on the fence like I was for a couple years, save some money up, and make the purchase when you’re able to. You won’t regret it!

Love this jacket. Ordered a Large Tall initially and it was good on the sleeves but to long in the torso, Sitka swapped it out and the large is perfect.

Fits well and very warm.

Hudson Jacket

Is a must have! If you are a freeze baby or run hot, it keeps me comfortable even on those all day hunts.

Hudson Jacket Perfect fit

Great jacket.

Best jacket I own

Just wore it on a 5 day hunt. Best jacket I own. Not bulky and range of motion is great. Nice and warm

What do you think!!!

Of course it’s awesome just like every single one of the products excellent craftsmanship excellent fit. The amount of time that Sitka puts into their gear as they think of every possible thing is remarkable

Quality Gear that is worth the money

This jacket is very well made and should hold up to years of regular use. I have spent less on other jackets and regretted it. Looking forward to running this hard over the winter along with the bibs that I recently received.

Great features and quality. Design

Great features and quality. Design allows for good shoulder movement and gun mount. Does not bind! Hope it is waterproof. Earlier models were not as waterproof as needed.

Hudson Jacket

Absolutely love the jacket! Nice water tight cuffs and a warm inner layer.

Kansas Waterfowler

Like all the other reviews this Hudson Jacket is worth the money. For cold weather hunting, I believe there's no equal.

Must have Jacket!!!

Huge fan of the Hudson Jacket. Mid to late season with rain and wind the jacket shines. With a few Sitka layers to late season this still did great. I’d recommend to everyone. Pricey but totally worth it!!!

Warm and waterproof

This is the perfect waterfowler coat. It is warm and waterproof.

Last jacket I’ll ever buy

Last jacket I’ll ever buy hands down

I love this jacket. Has kept me both super warm and dry. I as well love the deep pockets and hand side pockets.

Great Coat with great features

This coat has been phenomenal! Wet heavy snow and ice are not match for this coat. Great piece for layering and sitting in the duck blind all day is enjoyable with this coat. Cuffs are awesome and paired with the Pantanal gloves no chance of wet hands or arms.

Great jacket

Great jacket to have. Very comfortable keeps the wind off you during the 20 degree weather.

Simply The Best

From waterfowl to offshore fishing this coat does it all! 200 days a year in the field and this jacket never leaves my side.

Awesome Jacket

Just got back from North Dakota and we had some terrible/nasty weather that tested the Hudson Jacket and old Mother Nature lost the battle to Sitka, driving rain, snow, and wind were no match for this coat. The best duck coat I have owned. If you want a coat that will let you hunt in the worst weather choose the Hudson.

Best jacket

Today was duck opener in pa and had 3 hrs of heavy rain fall, I was warm and completely dry. Best jacket I ever purchased.

Favorite Jacket

I wore this jacket for six days on Kodiak Island through daily rain and/or snow. Stayed completely dry and warm the whole trip. I highly recommend it!

Owner of 50+ sitka products, this may be my favorite.

As a guide I am in the thickest of the thick, all over the country. I follow the migration from Alaska to Texas, and then up to Kentucky and Indiana. I hunt over 100 days a year, and when it gets cold and wet, this is the jacket I am wearing. I even wear this doing things other than duck hunting, like guiding on glacial treks and canoe trips in South East Alaska. This jacket is extremely durable and waterproof. That being said other jackets are durable and waterproof, what sets the Hudson apart is the incredible attention to details that Sitka designed into it. The first is the actual design of the jacket. I wear a large in it. When it gets very cold I layer a duck oven underneath it and I can hunt in any condition. I sat a goose spread last year with a -32 windchill and was the only hunter who stayed warm with this layered system. The hood, zippers, and overall feel of the jackets are incredible. The pockets are my favorite part though. This coat is littered with pockets, which if you are a serious waterfowler you know make or break gear. Pit pockets for keeping the hands warm while wearing waders, shell pockets for holding extra ammo, multiple breast pockets for calls and phones. I cannot stress how much I love this coat. If you are a water fowler and are going to buy a jacket, buy this one.

Great jacket

I bought a redhead coat from bass pro shop for like $200 and I was riding my dirtbike and I took the coat off and tied it to the handle bars bc I was to hot and it melted the coat so I figured I’d buy a new one and everyone said to get one of these and they are the best ever

So close to perfect

Almost the perfect waterfowl jacket with one major downside. The jacket all together is wonderful. It has all the features and is well thought out except for one part that ruins it. The "upper hand warmer" pocket is not warm in any way at all. It is ridiculously bad. Why in the world would an insulated waterproof jacket for cold weather have supposed hand warming pockets with absolutely no insulation. It also should have a zipper to pass through the pocket into your waders. I honestly do not wear the jacket often because of the pockets. I hate that the jacket has everything right but is ruined by the pockets.

Needed a jacket to stay

Needed a jacket to stay warm and dry during the season in Colorado. This jacket was the key. Stayed dry in the pits when the heaters where going and even when it was -19 stayed warm . Zero complaints and will never use another jacket!!

This is the workhouse of

This is the workhouse of the waterfowl system. The finest most functional, durable, dry and above all a great fit. If you buy just one Sitka waterfowl item get the Hudson. And best of all the women’s line is out. My wife loves her Hudson. I can’t believe that I waited as long as I did to get one.

The Hudson is the workhorse

The Hudson is the workhorse of the waterfowl system. This is the finest waterfowl all around jacket! I size up since I’m hunting the Bay of Green Bay until ice up. If you want a dry, functional, durable and loaded with features jacket this is it hands down. Now it’s even available for women. My wife can’t believe how great this jacket is as well. If you are just starting out and buy one Sitka waterfowl item this is the one. Hands down.

Finally found and settled at

Finally found and settled at the ultimate hunting jacket. This is well though out masterpiece, perfect for layering and on its own. I am 6’3” 210lbs 32-34 waist and LT fits perfect. If you are above 6 feet, always get the tall size in jacket no matter how tempting it is unless you want to look like a bag of potatoes and wishing for that extra arm length :)

Possibly the best jacket that

Possibly the best jacket that I have ever bought in my life! Durability should not be an issue with this jacket as it feels like it was made to last a lifetime. The water tight wrist cuffs and the incorporated duck call lanyards are awesome extras that make this jacket a home run. I first broke it in on a trip to Michigan a couple weeks ago and didn't feel any of the blustering wind or get soaked during a massive snowball fight. Although it is a bit pricey, it is worth every penny! I bought the Hudson bibs shortly after because I was so impressed with the fit and functionality of this jacket. Together both of them kept me dry during a severe thunderstorm that I used to test the jacket and bibs are 100% waterproof, spoiler alert... they are!!

Great light weight hoodie for

Great light weight hoodie for multiple uses. Comfortable inside and durable outside. Quiet hoodie fits perfect with or without a hat and doesn’t make any sound over your ears.

Great jacket. I hunt from

Great jacket. I hunt from a sneakbox and this jacket is the best I have owned. Not restrictive at all. First day I hunted with jacket, 25kt winds on the bay, Warm, dry, no water or wind Highly recommend.

YOU CAN TELL SOMEONE THAT

YOU CAN TELL SOMEONE THAT HUNTS THOUGHT UP THIS DESIGN. EVEN DOWN TO THE CALL LANYARD AND THE POCKETS TO PUT YOUR CALLS IN. THE HIGHER POCKETS. THANKS FOR MAKING A BAD ASS PRODUCT.
