Wet weather clothes

[Danavan]

Well it's been a little wet of late & my water proof jacket is no longer water proof after a couple of winter/spring tours.

 

I was on the wonder of what water proof clothing is generally worn out & about & if people choose to spend good £ on their wet weather work clothes?

glad to see you are taking the impending rain seriously and aren't swayed by this 'snowiest winter in 10 000 years nonsense'.

Got my snow gear sussed I think. Landrover, burning arisings & tea!

ive got some bergaus wet gear, matching pants and jacket, both breathable, good when the heavens open for business. If i just want a jacket ive got a regatta waterproof which i got from TK maxx for £25

I go for ex army gortex it dries quickley, its light, strong and the hoods are big enough to go over your lid so you dont get a wet neck!

 

Think I paid 40 quid for my last one and its lasted years of abuse

[Danavan]

Ex army stuff is great. I found the US stuff better than UK though:sneaky2:

Bloody typical! £50 for the last top I bought

I've currently got a Stein jacket and I reckon I was quite a bit less wet (on the top half at least after maybe 6 hours solid rain today!)than the others on site wearing various other makes. It dries pretty quick too.

Sounds like a good bit of kit. Will look it up. Dry time is defo important if you ain't got full central heat room to put em in.
