Bronco Jacket
 
does anyone have or had the pull over style of the neoprene bronco jacket ?

any opinions on this item ?? Are they truely water proof ? Are they tight fitting and warm ?

They're pretty good. I'd characterize them as splash tops to use in really cold, windy weather. If you're not deep wading, it will do the job.

The Aquaskinz Hurricanes have better arm cuffs and neck seals if you want water-tight in more immersive conditions.

(I own both by the way).

What weewee said. Very warm but more of a splash top. Good buy for the price.

I just bought the brown full zippered front. Good quality and could use year round. :cool:
Not as loud as Aquaskinz and good value for the money.

Best price was on Tim's site.

I also have the Bronco zipper front. Wore it all last Nov and Dec and it's great. It's not watertight but unless you are at Carpenters or Deep Hole it's warm, windproff and will keep you dry. Mine is getting pretty beatup as this is my 3rd year with it.
I don't wear it from May till Oct as it would be like a sauna suit
