    I don't do hoods, they feel claustrophobic to me so, I expect to get some down the back. No amount of fancy bullshit material will keep me dry when I'm hunting. I sweat, like a fat 42 year old should. Put a coat over it and your only asking for trouble. I don't wear leggings either and I expect a certain amount of wicking via my shorts anyway. The cut is long enough to keep it over my waistband so water run off doesn't get any higher than the tops of my shorts pockets.
    Had a Sitka. Sent it back without trying. Too short. Swazi Tahr, super shit. Anything I've seen from Hunters Element looks mediocre at best and the few items I did get are not with me any longer.
    Absolutely loving my Sitka gear, don't know if they do a kiwi style rain coat?
    Really rate my Sitka after a full day of wet hunting a few weeks back.
    Just buy the next size up works for me.
