Thread: Raincoats. What is the best....

if your coat cant handle scratchy vege or is down right noisy in the bush...wear it UNDER a polarfleece....light weight polarfleece weighs stuff all when wet as water just runs through it and out the bottom. Ive got a superlightweight nylon bumfreezer jacket that has saved my bacon more times than I care to remember...it keeps most of rain off torso,keeps ALL the wind out,and makes pretty good bag to wrap meat in when chucking it in backpack.

That's what we did when polarfleece first arrived, over the top of a nylon jacket.
Did the job.
Still have a swanni.
