Waterproof Jacket

[Lyn Ed]

after paying 50 odd quid for stein jacket ive found out that my £5 ex army goretex does a better job

[Frank]

Maybe but your £5 old army goretex doesn't look as smart though does it?

[Yve_Clark]

Just a quick reply to some of your questions....

 

I am happy to confirm that the Clark cutandclimb jackets are not manufactured in exploited sweat shops. They are currently manufactured in the UK. So for anyone that's ethically concerned, the jacket ticks the right box there.

 

The Exeat material that they are manufactured from is also used by the military and the police for their outdoor garments. It is hard wearing, waterproof, and breathable. The jacket has derived from an outdoor all-weather jacket and has been adapted to specifically meet the requirements of the arborist.....longer length at back, pockets higher to allow access whilst wearing harness etc.

 

Any further questions, be happy to answer.

 

cheers, Y

ive got the grey stein jacket and really like it especial the yellow strip where the zip is:thumbup:

My stein stopped being wAterproof after a couple of good downpours but the fit is good

Alright bristowBeen a while,Ive got the cut n climb jack in nz (thanks again yvonne)And is really good,Treetools might be getting them in.

[DrewB]

How much is the nz price going to be roughly bro? Need something that will cope with the Auckland downpour but also some rough bush missions. Macpac stuff is brilliant but is a bit pricy for work. I'm interested in seeing this- Adam you coming up to auckland for the nationals?

[Mark Bolam]

Adam. welcome back bro.

 

Ditto Drews comments for the Stein, may give Yve a bell soon.

 

The thing is, doing tree work makes you sweat.

Sweat is wet.

You get wet doing tree work.

Fact.

 

Noone ever said it was easy......

[MasterBlaster]

If it's truly waterproof, you'll be soaked in sweat - summer OR winter.

 

Can I git a witness?
