Core Sound Shell Weight Jacket | Dixie Decoys

The Core Sound Shell Weight Jacket draws its name and spirit from the decoy-rich waters of Carteret County, NC - a region synonymous with generations of waterfowling heritage. Built to honor that legacy, this shell jacket blends timeless fieldwear styling with cutting-edge waterproof hunting technology.

100% Waterproof Shell with 3000/3000 Durability Rating

Stay dry through harsh rain, wind, and spray. This jacket boasts a 3000mm/3000g waterproof and breathability rating, meaning it can withstand over 3,000mm of water pressure in 24 hours—comparable to a steady all-day downpour or heavy coastal squall. It provides rugged protection without sacrificing breathability.

Tear-Resistant Ripstop Fabric Reinforcements

Designed for durability in the field, the forearms and elbows are reinforced with tear-resistant ripstop fabric, providing extra abrasion resistance when pushing through brush, setting decoys, or leaning into boat gunwales.

Waterproof YKK® Zipper & Neoprene Wrist Cuffs

Equipped with a premium waterproof YKK front zipper, this shell jacket is sealed against water intrusion. Internal neoprene cuffs keep sleeves snug against your wrist, preventing water from running down your arms when reaching or casting.

Strategic Ventilation and Underarm Comfort

Built for movement and breathability, laser-cut ventilation eyelets under the arms regulate temperature and prevent overheating during high-output activity like wading, paddling, or walking the marsh edge.

Storable Hood for Versatility

When skies clear or you’re not on the move, the drawstring hood conveniently stows inside the collar, preserving a clean profile and keeping you streamlined in a layout blind or during upland hunts.

Innovative RACC™ Ammunition System

The RACC™ (Removable Ambidextrous Cartridge Card) system offers ultimate flexibility for storing shells or gear. Whether you’re right- or left-handed, position your ammo exactly where you need it. RACC™ cards are also fully interchangeable with the DECOY Waterfowler’s Blind Bag, allowing seamless transitions between gear.
