Rain gear

[JaySmith]

I used to like the Stein jackets, they were only about £45 going back a few years and seemed to last well but the design seems to have changed recently. The one I had on today is about six years old and ok for light rain shower. I’ve also got a cut and climb jacket that’s coming to the end of its life but nobody seems to have them in stock anymore which is a shame as I really rate them. I recently went for one of the Arbortec smock. The Arbortec is nice and has some decent features like the side zips when using a harness and a high neck/hood to stop the rain going down your neck. The cuffs also tighten up to stop some of the water running down your arm. Overall it seems like a well thought out jacket but time will tell how it lasts as I’ve only had it a couple of months so far
