Drake Waterfowl Youth MST Eqwader Full-Zip Jacket – Waterproof, Breathable, Fleece-Lined (Old School 8)

Engineered for Young Explorers

Meet the Drake Waterfowl Youth MST Eqwader Full-Zip Jacket, a rugged, weather-ready layer designed for active youngsters who love outdoor adventures. This jacket blends protection and comfort for days spent in rain-soaked fields, windy ridges, or muddy trails, providing practical warmth without slowing down movement.

Dual-Zone Eqwader Technology for Comfort and Dryness

The upper body and sleeves use a waterproof, windproof, and breathable Refuge HS fabric with HyperShield 2.0 technology, while the lower torso is lined with soft, moisture-wicking fleece. This design creates two distinct zones that work together to keep the wearer dry and comfortable, with the fleece being about 15 times more breathable than the upper layer to help vent perspiration both inside and outside waders.

All-Weather Protection with Temperature-Controlling Comfort

Whether rain hinges into a drizzle or the day grows breezy, the Eqwader system aims to manage moisture and airflow so the core stays comfortable. Taped seams add an extra line of defense against leaks, and the fleece interior adds warmth without bulk, making layering under other gear smoother and more adaptable to changing conditions.

Key Features That Bring Real-World Convenience

• ADVANCED MATERIALS – upper body and sleeves deliver waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection with HyperShield 2.0
• MOISTURE-WICKING & BREATHABLE – lower torso fleece is highly breathable to move sweat away from the skin
• EQWADER TECHNOLOGY – patented dual-zone design helps the wearer stay dry and comfortable across tasks
• OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE – taped seams and a full-zip front enable secure closure and adjustable ventilation
• MULTIPLE POCKETS – vertical Magnattach chest pocket, a zippered chest pocket, and lower slash pockets for secure storage

Why This Youth Jacket Fits Real-Life Outdoor Moments

The full-zip design makes temperature regulation straightforward—zip up for a chill morning and vent during a mid-day hike. The soft fleece lining offers a comfortable feel against the skin, while the two-zone system helps manage moisture when kids move between waterlogged reeds or brushy terrains. Generous pockets keep essentials handy, from a small notebook to gloves or trail snacks, without hindering activity.

Care, Durability, and Sizing Confidence

Built to withstand damp grass, mist, and frequent outdoor wear, this youth jacket is designed for repeated use. It cleans easily in cold water and is meant to maintain performance through seasons of play, hunting, or exploration. Layering with other pieces remains flexible, helping families tailor warmth and protection as needed.

In Short

A thoughtful balance of weather-ready protection and kid-friendly practicality, the Drake Waterfowl MST Eqwader Youth Full-Zip Jacket offers versatile defense against the elements while supporting active movement for young outdoors enthusiasts.
