Stihl Raintech or Husky technical

[Hopenchop]

Can anyone out there tell me if they have tried the Stihl Raintech jacket. I’m looking at that or having to bring myself to the big bucks of buying the husky technical jacket. I know they are totally different jackets. Just trying to see if anyone has anything good to say about them both. Thanks arbormen

Stihl raintechs a better than decent jacket.Had mine for god knows how long and has held up well.

Couple of wee issues,1. I dont wear it unless its pissin it down 2. The velcro adjustable cuffs will eventually rip off and 3. Its not very warm so a fleece underneath will be required in the colder months.

Im pretty sure its got a tuck away hood but i pulled it off and chucked it too fuck as i wear a helmet(as most arb types do) so a hood in my opinion is pointless.

Id recommend it and for sure its better value than the husky equivalent which is fuckn silly money!

That’s what I needed to hear. Knowing it’s lasted you a while and not in pieces is enough for me. I’ll see the lads and make an order Monday. Its 275.00 New Zealand Dollar over here so appreciate the feedback and the husky is about 500.00. So decision made ..... Stihl Raintech for sure .. cheers  Stihlmadasever.
