I doubt there looking at the likes of anything from NTG. Probably the
likes of Premium Fly fishing outfitters like Orvis. You seen the price of that kit. For that kind of money I'd want it to everything and more..

I have posted this before but for me, nothing beats a plastic / PVC type jacket that trawlermen wear, 100% waterproof and non absorbant, that's what they should be selling but they would struggle to get enough carp tax on it. The key point, you can shake most of the water off it when you have done. Wet slimy jackets in a bivvy when its cold is not good, condensation magnet
Wear your insulation under a shell and keep it dry, job done. When you get back in your tent, jacket off, sorted.
Anybody who sits out in the rain must be barking mad

Yellow PVC coat and Sou wester. Reminds me of being a kid, the smell of plastic is making me feel sick now.
Your right, they definitely kept you dry. Did tend to sweat a bit when the sun was out mind..

>>>>Yellow PVC coat and Sou wester<<<<
Do you really want to go fishing looking like a "Spod"????
When I'm sea fishing though, beach or boat in inclement weather, I wear bright orange PVC smock and bib and brace same brand and style as what they wear on trawlers and fishing boats etc. About 2 or 3 layers under them and you are lovely and warm and completely waterproof and simple to hose clean and dry. It was the trend back in the 70's and 80's but now its been overtaken by these one piece and two piece thermal suits etc which in reality, are not as good or as flexible.

If they are worried it's not carpy enough, I'm sure OMC can bring out a jacket stink cammo bag for 300 notes..

I spent £225 on a Rab coat . I use it for walking the dog as well to try and justify it to myself. ( I normally budget and don't even buy new tackle)
The coat has been top draw , comfy , waterproof , windproof and drys really quick.
