Can anyone please give me a comparison between the fortis tundra jacket and the Snugpak torrent . Pros and cons and is the fortis worth the extra , cheers .

I have the Tundra salopettes and the Torrent Jacket.
I'd say Tundra better for waterproof and Torrent better for warmth. Tbh if Snugpak did waterproof salopettes I'd have gone for them too.

I thought the tundra had a better warmth rating than the torrent

No idea mate, but the snugpak stuff feels warmer to me.

Absolutely mate.
My old Snugpak Sleeka salopettes were warmer than the Tundra's, I'm sure of it. If only they did a waterproof version.....

Thanks for the replies . I was unsure whether I could justify and needed the tundra and hadn't thought too much about the salopettes . This has changed today sat here freezing my whatsits off with the wind in my face. 🤣

Thanks for the reply . Whilst moving around do you find the salopettes overly warm ? I'm guessing as they are highly breathable this might not be an issue , thanks .

if your setting up house ect yes, but normal situations there perfect in my opinion, as im a session angler i need to be dry and warm.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
