A favorite: the Nomad jacket

It may well be that their website is ugly, but the jackets have style. Definitely one of my all time favorite wading jacket designs.

WELL, VERY PLEASED TO MEET YOU DEAR FISHERMEN. WRTING FROM ITALY. 43 YEARS GONE TO FISHING (RIVERS AND SEA). I HAVE A QUESTION RELATED TO THE NOMAD JACKET SHOWED IN THIS PAGE: IS POSSIBLE TO FIND AND BUY THIS MODEL? AND WHERE? THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE, GENTLEMEN. BEST REGARDS.

Fred,

This is a really old jacket, and probably discontinued from Nomad. I bought mine close to 20 years ago, and actually threw it in the garbage just weeks ago. I have moved from my house recently and the Nomad-jacket was one of the things I had to let go. I liked it very much, but it had served its time, and completely lost its breathability and main purpose, namely keeping me dry when I'm fishing.

You can see the current Nomad web site here - not beautiful, but anyway...

Where can this jacket be purchased?
The design looks like it will fit my needs if they make my size

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
