Heritage & History
Drake Waterfowl was founded in Florence, Mississippi in 1999 by hunters who were frustrated with the quality and functionality of available waterfowl hunting apparel. Mississippi sits at the heart of the Mississippi Flyway — one of the continent's major migratory bird corridors — and the founders brought firsthand knowledge of what waders, jackets, and hunting gear actually needed to perform in the cold, wet, and muddy conditions of the Mississippi Delta's duck marshes.
The brand grew by building genuine relationships with the hunting community: sponsoring hunting shows, working with professional guides, and taking product feedback from the hunters who used their gear in real conditions. This connection to the hunting community produced a product line that earned the trust of serious waterfowlers.
Designed for American Waterfowlers
Drake Waterfowl designs its apparel for the specific demands of American waterfowl hunting: pre-dawn wading in cold water, long hours in a blind, and the physical demands of retrieving ducks from flooded fields and marsh edges. The brand's waders, bibs, and jackets are engineered for these conditions, with insulation ratings, waterproofing standards, and camouflage patterns developed specifically for North American hunting environments.
Florence, Mississippi is the operational base for a brand that has become one of the most respected names in American waterfowl hunting. Their Endurance line and MST wader collection are benchmarks in the category, and the brand's Made in USA products reflect a commitment to quality that the hunting community — notoriously demanding about gear performance — has validated through sustained brand loyalty.
