Is the Mackinaw Hunting Jacket waterproof?

No. The tight wool weave resists wind, snow and light rain and lets moisture escape, but it is not a waterproof shell. In sustained rain, expect some wetting.

Can I add a liner for colder weather?

Yes. The jacket has an internal zipper for Filson zip-in liners, so you can add insulation for deep winter.

How does it compare with a synthetic hunting shell?

It is warmer, quieter and more durable than most synthetic shells, but heavier and slower to dry. Synthetics pack smaller and handle heavy rain better.

What pockets does it have?

Fleece-lined handwarmer pockets behind cargo pockets, plus a rear map/game pocket lined with coated nylon.

How should I clean it?

Treat it as wool: spot clean and air it, and avoid machine washing and high heat, which can shrink and mat the fabric.

Hunters and cold-weather outdoorsmen who want a rugged wool coat, and buyers who prefer natural fibers over synthetic shells.
