Review: Simms Exstream Pull Over Insulated Hoody

$220 | simmsfishing.com

Savvy anglers know that layering is the key to keeping warm and comfortable while you’re fishing in cold and/or wet weather—whether your game is wading an icy Lake Erie tributary for winter steelhead, or casting for off-season trout on a year-round Western tailwater. That’s why Simms has developed the new ExStream Pull Over Insulated Hoody. Built of high-quality, high-tech, stretchy fabric throughout, this hoody gives you superior, snag-free mobility and excellent range of motion for long hours of casting.

In fact it won the Fly Fisherman Gear Guide Best New Insulated Jacket for 2023. 

Lightweight and filled with 200 grams of PrimaLoft Silver Thermoplume insulationwith Cross Core technology—which keeps its loft and its warmth in even the wettest environments—the ExStream Pull Over Insulated Hoody makes an ideal midlayer for extremely cold days. The snug-fitting lower portion of the hoody tucks easily inside your waders to make layering fast and easy. The lower portion also has two kangaroo-style handwarmer pockets. Above, a zippered chest pocket provides a handy, secure place to stash a box of flies, your phone, or other essentials. The articulated sleeves and cuffs have sturdy thumb loops for comfort and added warmth.

The upper body and sleeves are constructed of pre-quilted Toray polyester and Spandex stretch fabric. The lower body is hard-faced fleece made of nylon, polyester, and Spandex. The entire hoody has a durable, water-repellent finish that will withstand years of hard use.
