Does Its Job Well

Comfortable, warm, and has enough range of motion to use a bow for late season bowhunting. The only issue I've come across with this jacket is how much those darned stick-tites or stickers cling to the fabric. HOWEVER, that's nothing a quick couple passes of a Microfiber cloth can't fix.

must have

The Sitka Fanatic Jacket is an exceptional piece of hunting gear that blends innovative design with top-tier performance. Crafted with a focus on bow hunters, it excels in staying silent and comfortable, even in the harshest conditions. The jacket’s GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ fabric offers windproof, water-resistant protection while maintaining breathability, making it perfect for long sits in varied weather. The integrated features, like the quiet, soft outer fabric and the strategically placed pockets, add to its functionality without compromising stealth. Its body-mapped insulation ensures warmth without adding bulk, and the high collar, adjustable hood, and microfleece lining provide extra protection during colder hunts. Whether you're stalking through dense forests or sitting for hours in a stand, the Sitka Fanatic Jacket's performance is unmatched. It's an investment in comfort, durability, and reliability, making it a must-have for serious hunters.

Fanatic Jacket Review

Living in Pennsylvania, and participating in late season tree climber, white tail deer hunting, necessitated me to have winter hunting clothing that protected me not only from significant humid, frigid temperatures, but also strong sustained winds on top of a mountain range where I frequently hunt. The Fanatic Jacket provides excellent protection from the elements that I just described. It is a great addition to my late season hunting clothing system. Thank you Sitka for another outstanding product. I wear a size Large Stratus Jacket, but I had to utilize an extra large Fanatic Jacket due to the Sitka clothing system I wear underneath the Fanatic Jacket while static tree climber hunting/sitting (Sitka Core Heavy Weight base-layer Hoodie, Sitka Fanatic Hoodie). I wear the above Sitka Clothing System items (minus the Fanatic Jacket), plus an insulating jacket, when temperatures start to drop in mid-season, under my size Large Sitka Stratus Jacket without any issues for mid-to early late season hunting, but I had to upgrade to an Extra Large Fanatic Jacket to accommodate just my Sitka Core Heavy Weight Hoodie Base-Layer and my Mid-Layer (Fanatic Hoodie). I am 6 foot and weigh approximately 195 pounds (in good shape with a combination muscular but cardiovascular fit body style). I hope this review helps.

Don’t hesitate, buy it now!

I spent 3 hours the other morning in the deer stand with light to moderate rain…my boots and hat were soaked, as was the jacket, but NOTHING under it got wet…I went back that evening and got drowned for another 3 hours, to my surprise my under layers were STILL dry. 6 hours of hunting in the rain in the same day and it still kept me warm/dry 11/10 recommend!

Warmest jacket I’ve ever had!

Got it because I’ve had the fanatic bibs for a few seasons now. I can honestly say this is warmest and most comfortable still sit jacket I own. This thing keeps me warm and toasty in 17 degree weather hanging in a tree. The only downside is that it is bulky and you cannot walk into a place to hunt with it on cause you will sweat to death. But ultimately worth it completely.

Fanatic Jacket

Great jacket for those cold windy days. Only down side is it Doesn't pack down that well. I use the tool bucket which isn’t the largest pack in the world either! I would say the warmth that this jacket provides outweighs the bulk in brings to your pack when you are hiking in miles in the core of Appalachia with elevation gains and loses of hundreds of feet. Even tho I am satisfied for now with this jacket’s performance I’d like to see further improvements in the gear for guys like me. Not everyone hunts the “flat” Midwest for whitetails.

Huge Fanatic Fan

I was looking for a system that would keep me warm on those below 30’f days and I absolutely found it. This jacket is so comfortable and warm without being bulky or bunching up. Love the front hand pouch and chest pockets. Ordering the Fanatic Bibs now. Great product, well made and couldn’t be more pleased with it. Thank you a Sitka!!

Super warm and so comfortable

I never thought I would spend this much for a jacket. I have tried a lot of the other brands and they were either not comfortable or it didn’t block the wind and keep me warm. This jacket is so comfy and warm that I invested in the entire Sitka Fanatic layering system. Down to 19 degrees and windy and I was warm, comfortable and toasty while sitting in the tree stand.
