Superb coat

Some shocking bad advice on here sometimes that gets peddled year after year when in reality it is very simple

Layering works if active.
Insulation works when static.
What is warm for someone may not be for someone else
And as already said never wear the heavy insulation when active (ie getting to swim etc)

I have a couple of Pentagon jackets for winter, not too expensive and really good and I mean really good! Very warm, great fit, functional and completely waterproof. Way better than most fishing branded jackets and those ill fitting snugpak things that everyone seems to think are so great. Military 1st sell the entire Pentagon range. Take a look at their website.
