    I live in Bergen Norway,we get twice as much Rain as New Zealands West Coast.Last year we had 279 Rainy days
    These are the best value for money in Jackets

    Genuine British Army Desert Camo Gortex Jacket, Size 180/104, New Large Regular | eBay

    They last easily two years for me and thats wearing them felling trees for 500 days on average.Take advantage of the weak pound and get yourself a couple.

    The British Army trousers arnt much good,the Gortex is alright but the waist band keeps slipping down.

    GERMAN ARMY GORETEX TROUSERS XL, 38"- 44", USED MVP, GORE-TEX, FLECKTARN | eBay

    So sporting your DPM Camo upper and Kraut Flecktarn strides you look like a Mercenary from the Salvation Army,but who gives a shit when your dry.

    I had these for years, they work, got a great deal on a camo NZDF Swazi jacket, so that's my main one now......
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!
