Lando –
There was a change at Gore; they altered the way they name their entire lineup (just when people were starting to figure out the last naming scheme), but fundamentally the fabric is pretty much the same.
The new fabric, which is being used by Simms, is primarily different in the interior layer (which is woven on a vertical-and-horizontal loom, as opposed to knitted, which was how the older interior was assembled).
I believe the Winston is both, and no, unfortunately I had to be back at my desk in Atlanta this week, so no fishing.
To Matt’s credit, this is a direct quote:
“The William Joseph Gear Bag is guaranteed to float with up to fifty pounds of equipment inside! And it is waterproof to boot!”
Some of those sites make clear that the top is the only waterproof component (and you may evaluate that claim for yourself based on the video, clearly).
