    Jacket advice

    What do you lot wear
    I'm looking for something to keep me warm but also needs to stop water getting through
    I currently wear one of the greys zipped waterproof jacket but may aswell wear a tshirt when it starts to rain
    I had a Titan smock which was ok but a lot of tackle shops can't get them & even suggest there crap anyway
    I do spray waterproofer on my jacket which helps a little

    Your Greys must be old and knackered. I have a Greys smock top and its brilliant. When it gets really cold I wear a Sundridge Floatation suit.

            I'm prob just a soft shi** Iv got the greys extreme
            Not that old & not used much but I wash it quite regular. Iv probably lost the waterproofing on jacket so might need it done properly

              Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...087427&alt=web

              Just got one of these and its very well made. As for waterproofing, nikwax spray is the best.

                When you wash waterproofs don't use detergent softer and don't put it on a spin, no coat will stay waterproof if washed that way, I wear titan clothing very warm and waterproof.
