[NoWorries]

The patches on the arms and front plus the collar and wrist straps and neoprene cuffs are differences that I can see. The wear patches are designed to protect areas that can be easily damaged from use. I own the stryker for 2 years with no issues except both jackets will absorb water and on a real rainy day the jacket gets very heavy. It will dry overnight in a warm place if hung up. It did not soak thru that I could tell. Not really designed to replace rain gear but definitely both are very warm plus great wind resistance with the hood up for winter fishing.
